1. A method for generating a mesh model of an object, comprising:

  • receiving an ordered set of data points, the data points including coordinates that describe the object;

    when a minimum number of data points have been received, displaying an initial representation of the mesh model based on the received minimum number of data points; and

    increasing a resolution of the displayed mesh model by inserting into the displayed mesh model data points received after the minimum number of data points was received.
