A biarc is a one-parameter family of G 1 curves that can satisfy G 1 Hermite data at two points. An arc spline approximation to a smooth planar curve can be found by reading G 1 Hermite data from the curve and ΓΏtting a biarc between each pair of data points. The resulting collection of biarcs forms
A planar cubic B6zier curve that is a spiral, i.e., its curvature varies monotonically, does not have internal cusps, loops, and inflection points. It is suitable as a design tool for applications in which fair curves are important. Since it is polynomial, it can be conveniently incorporated in CAD
