Path Deform bends geometry to follow the shape of a curve, then lets you apply secondary deformations such as scaling and twisting. This tool can be used to deform a long flexible object into a desired shape. You can also have the curve animate the deformation of static geometry such as a cracking whip or animate the mapping of geometry onto the curve such as when a shark moves and bends along a path curve.

This feature was under development for a future release but was backported into Houdini 18.0.499. Learn more - https://www.sidefx.com/community/houdini-18-backport/
