Internal Faces

Internal Faces

Internal faces occur when nodes link up in unintended ways, and form polygons inside the object rather than outside. With real-time VR, these polygons then eat clock cycles unnecessarily, giving no benefit. With computer aided manufacturing, the shape becomes unusable, as the 3D printer cannot print polygons with no width inside otherwise solid shapes.
