The Plane Generator takes a mesh input (usually a high poly) and will output a poly with a predefined amount of faces that the curvature of the input will be projected onto. This can then be used in baking as the low poly input, or exported via the ExportMesh Export Mesh node. 

Description

Plane Generator creates a planar surface that spans the high-poly input to the specified coverage parameter, then performs inexpensive raycasting to sample the high-poly surface around each low-poly vertex and estimate the mid-level position. This is important in capturing surface scans as you do not want exact re-projections in order to capture height data.
