hullMesh

Extract the vertices and the faces from a 3d convex hull.

Computes the convex hull in arbitrary dimension, based on the
Qhull library (<http://www.qhull.org>). The package provides a
complete description of the convex hull: edges, ridges, facets,
adjacencies. Triangulation is optional.

hullMesh function

<dl><dt>hull</dt>
<dd>a 3d convex hull, output of <code>cxhull</code></dd>
<dt>simplify</dt>
<dd>Boolean, whether to return the faces as a matrix instead 
of a list if possible, i.e. if all faces have the same number of edges;
this argument is possibly ignored if <code>rgl=TRUE</code>, see below</dd>
<dt>rgl</dt>
<dd>Boolean, whether to return a rgl mesh (class 
<code>mesh3d</code>) if possible, i.e. if each face has three or four edges; 
if <code>TRUE</code> and the rgl mesh is possible, then the 
<code>simplify</code> argument has no effect</dd></dl>
