This function polygon2function will convert a Triangulated Mesh into a Voxel Volume which will contain the discretized mesh.

Discretization of a polygon is done by splitting the polygon in smaller polygons, until the longest edge is smaller than 0.5 voxel, then the voxel beneath the vertice coordinates is set to one.

Note, this new version is pure Matlab (previous version required c++ compiler)

Try the example.

Bugs, successes and other comments are welcome!
