Detailed Description

template<typename PointInT>
class pcl::SurfaceReconstruction< PointInT >

SurfaceReconstruction represents a base surface reconstruction class. All surface reconstruction methods take in a point cloud and generate a new surface from it, by either re-sampling the data or generating new data altogether. These methods are thus not preserving the topology of the original data.

Note:: Reconstruction methods that always preserve the original input point cloud data as the surface vertices and simply construct the mesh on top should inherit from MeshConstruction.

Member Function Documentation

template<typename PointInT>

virtual void pcl::SurfaceReconstruction< PointInT >::performReconstruction ( pcl::PolygonMesh & output ) [protected, pure virtual]

Abstract surface reconstruction method.

Parameters:

[out] output the output polygonal mesh

Implemented in pcl::MarchingCubes< PointNT >, pcl::GridProjection< PointNT >, and pcl::Poisson< PointNT >.

template<typename PointInT>

virtual void pcl::SurfaceReconstruction< PointInT >::performReconstruction	(	pcl::PointCloud< PointInT > &	points,
		std::vector< pcl::Vertices > &	polygons
	)		`[protected, pure virtual]`

Abstract surface reconstruction method.

Parameters:

[out]	points	the resultant points lying on the surface
[out]	polygons	the resultant polygons, as a set of vertices. The Vertices structure contains an array of point indices.

Implemented in pcl::MarchingCubes< PointNT >, pcl::GridProjection< PointNT >, and pcl::Poisson< PointNT >.

template<typename PointInT >

void pcl::SurfaceReconstruction< PointInT >::reconstruct ( pcl::PolygonMesh & output ) [virtual]

Base method for surface reconstruction for all points given in <setInputCloud (), setIndices ()>

Parameters:

[out] output the resultant reconstructed surface model

NOTE: passing in boost shared pointer with * as const& should be OK here

NOTE: usually the number of triangles is around twice the number of vertices

Implements pcl::PCLSurfaceBase< PointInT >.

Definition at line 46 of file reconstruction.hpp.

template<typename PointInT>

void pcl::SurfaceReconstruction< PointInT >::reconstruct	(	pcl::PointCloud< PointInT > &	points,
		std::vector< pcl::Vertices > &	polygons
	)		`[virtual]`

Base method for surface reconstruction for all points given in <setInputCloud (), setIndices ()>

Parameters:

[out]	points	the resultant points lying on the new surface
[out]	polygons	the resultant polygons, as a set of vertices. The Vertices structure contains an array of point indices.

NOTE: usually the number of triangles is around twice the number of vertices
