INTRODUCTION
Interpreting 3-D sensory data is enabled with the use of the Point Cloud Library Point Cloud Library Point Cloud Processing (see http://pointclouds.org/). This open-source effort is independent of but compatible with ROS. The Point Cloud Library (PCL) offers an array of functions for interpreting 3-D data. The present treatment is not intended to be a comprehensive tutorial of PCL. Rather, a few simple capabilities are introduced that provide useful functionality. Greater ...
