It is interesting to see the discontinuities visualized like this.
Have you also made similar tools for working with curved surfaces?

That was what the whole Gaussian curvature project was about.
Iterating over a surface and showing the curvature combs would be - messy.
I also covered the various production methods of visualizing curvature and
discontinuities using zebra stripes, dots, isophotes, etc.
There is, of course, always so much more to do with this stuff.
