Abstract: In order to improve the real-time of the NURBS direct interpolation algorithm, a fast evaluation and derivation compute algorithm of the NURBS curve and surface was researched. According to the non-uniform B-spline derivation of de Boor-Cox algorithm, a fast recursive algorithm was put forward to derive the coefficient matrix of non-uniform B-spline basis function, which is based on the matrix representation of NURBS curve and surface. Compared with the traditional algorithms such as de Boor-Cox, the fast recursive algorithm has significant advantages in enhancing computation speeds, shorten interpolation cycle and improving interpolation real-time. The algorithm can be used to calculate the non-uniform B-spline curve and surface, except for the application in computer-aided geometric design.
