Interactive field-aligned remesher from Jakob / Tarini / Panozzo / Sorkine-Hornung (SIGGRAPH Asia 2015). The job it closes here is turning dense scans or sculpt dumps into a quad-ish mesh you can actually UV and skin. The program is BSD-3-Clause. Pages fetched on 2026-08-24 do not say "the mesh you export is yours" in those words. Treat it like other pipeline tools: the code is BSD, the topology you compute from your input is not automatically BSD, and third-party scans keep their own licenses.

The binary expects a sibling datasets folder or the Open panel is empty. Those demo meshes are for the paper UI, not a shippable kit
Workflow: orientation field, then position field, then Export mesh. Brush tools exist; they are easy to overfit
Modo 10.2+ ships a related auto-retopo. That is Foundry's product, not a second license for this repo
