  • In many engineering applications, it is necessary to calculate the min-area encasing box of a circumscription.In this paper, an algorithm for generating the min-area rectangle encasing box, based on revolving angle, is investigated and hence put forward.The algorithm computes the areas of the outer rectangular bounds of a closed contour in different revolving angles θby dispersing approach where 0 <θ<π/ 2 because of the axial symmetry.It is very simple, straight forward and highly efficient.The complexity of its computing time reachesO(n·k).Practical applications suggest its usefulness and efficiency.
