Detailed Description

template<typename PointInT>
class pcl::NormalEstimation< PointInT, Eigen::MatrixXf >

NormalEstimation estimates local surface properties at each 3D point, such as surface normals and curvatures.

Note:

The code is stateful as we do not expect this class to be multicore parallelized. Please look at NormalEstimationOMP for a parallel implementation.

template<typename PointInT >

void pcl::NormalEstimation< PointInT, Eigen::MatrixXf >::compute

(

pcl::PointCloud< pcl::Normal > &

)

[inline, private]

Make the compute (&PointCloudOut); inaccessible from outside the class.

Parameters:

[out]

output

the output point cloud

Reimplemented from pcl::Feature< PointInT, pcl::Normal >.

template<typename PointInT >

void pcl::NormalEstimation< PointInT, Eigen::MatrixXf >::computeFeatureEigen

(

pcl::PointCloud< Eigen::MatrixXf > &

output

)

[private, virtual]

Estimate normals for all points given in <setInputCloud (), setIndices ()> using the surface in setSearchSurface () and the spatial locator in setSearchMethod ()

Note:

In situations where not enough neighbors are found, the normal and curvature values are set to NaN

Parameters:

[out]

output

the resultant point cloud model dataset that contains surface normals and curvatures

Reimplemented from pcl::NormalEstimation< PointInT, pcl::Normal >.
