inline

Creates a new point cloud which only consists of the points inside the clipBox, where the orientation of the two boundary planes Z=Zmin and Z=Zmax can be modified by angles theta and phi.

For theta, phi = 0,0 the function will give the same result as Crop(). Angle theta tilts the two Z-boundary planes towards the (positive) Y-axis. Additionally, phi rotates the tilted Z-boundary planes around the Z-axis (for theta=0, phi will have no effect, because it is then just an inplane-rotation). The two Z-boundary planes will stay parallel, but no longer necessarily orthogonal to the lateral boundary planes. Note, that only the Z-boundaries are tilted and not the whole bounding box, i.e. X- and Y-boundaries will stay the same.

Template Parameters
TPoint cloud type (dense or sparse). Note, that point clouds will have the same type after cropping.
Parameters
[in]clipBoxCuboid defining the bounds for the points to be copied (min/max are inclusive).
[in]thetaTilt angle of the two Z-boundary planes Z=Zmin and Z=Zmax towards the positive Y-axis.
[in]phiRotation angle of the tilted Z-boundary planes around the Z-axis. If Theta = 0, Phi will have no effect.
Returns
The new point cloud.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

◆ PlaneCrop() [1/2]

std::shared_ptr< T > PlaneCrop ( const Plane3D plane,
const ValueRange< double > &  range,
CropRange  cropRange 
) const
inline

Creates a new point cloud where points within or outside a range parallel to given plane are cropped.

The plane is defined by the hessian normal form:

Points are cropped within or outside a range parallel to the given plane. The range is defined by range. Note, that Range.Max and Range.Min are applied along normal direction.

In order to define a range around the plane, maximum and minimum range have to be positive and negative respectively.

If the input point cloud is dense, cropped points are set non-confident. Lines and columns at the borders containing only non-confident points are removed. If the input point cloud is dense and does not contain a confidence plane, a confidence plane will be added to the cropped point cloud.

Template Parameters
TPoint cloud type (dense or sparse). Note, that point clouds will have the same type after cropping.
Parameters
[in]planePoints parallel to this plane will be cropped.
[in]rangePoints within or outside this range will be cropped.
[in]cropRangeIndicates whether points should be cropped within or outside the range.
Returns
Cropped point cloud.
Exceptions

◆ PlaneCrop() [2/2]

std::shared_ptr< T > PlaneCrop ( const Plane3D plane,
double  threshold,
CropDirection  cropBelowAbove = CropDirection::Below 
) const
inline

Creates a new point cloud which only consists of the points below or above given plane.

The plane is defined by the hessian normal form:

Above plane means all points with z values greater than the plane are cropped. It makes no difference in which direction the given normal points. The normal is always converted, so that it points up (positive z value). Note, if Normal.Z equals 0, "below" and "above" is undefined and thus no cropping is done. Instead the input point cloud will be duplicated.

If the input point cloud is dense, points beyond the plane are set non-confident. Lines and columns at the borders containing only non-confident points are removed. If the input point cloud is dense and does not contain a confidence plane, a confidence plane will be added to the cropped point cloud.

Template Parameters
TPoint cloud type (dense or sparse). Note, that point clouds will have the same type after cropping.
Parameters
[in]planePoints beyond this plane will be cropped.
[in]thresholdPoints below plane plus this value and points above plane minus this value are cropped respectively. This threshold should be set, if plane is calculated via FitPlane(). It ensures, that all points beyond this plane plus noise are cropped.
[in]cropBelowAboveIndicates if points should either be cropped below or above plane (optional, default value: CropDirection::Below).
Returns
Cropped point cloud.
Exceptions
Anyexception derived from std::exception including CvbException.

Friends And Related Function Documentation

◆ Visit()

auto Visit ( VISITOR &&  visitor,
const PointCloud cloud 
)
related

Creates a Cvb::Block based on the cloud object's access trait and pixel type and calls the given visitor with it.

Remarks
Currently only point clouds are supported, where LinearAccess is supported. The block will either be a ArrayPlaneBlock<LinearValue<T, 3>>, LinearPlaneBlock<LinearValue<T, 3>> or a ScatterBlock<T, 3>. If the x, y and z planes are interleaved in this order, a ArrayPlaneBlock<LinearValue<T, 3>> or LinearPlaneBlock<LinearValue<T, 3>> is used, providing performance optimizations. Otherwise ScatterBlock<T, 3> is used.
Template Parameters
VISITORCallable that is called with the typed CvbConcepts::Block.
Parameters
[in]visitorCallable of signature auto(Block<T,ACCESS_TRAIT>).
[in]cloudPointCloud to create typed CvbConcepts::Block for.
Returns
Whatever visitor returns.
Exceptions
std::runtime_errorif no pixel type could be matched.
std::domain_errorif properties of the planes differ.

◆ VisitAs()

auto VisitAs ( VISITOR &&  visitor,
const PointCloud cloud 
)
related

Creates a Cvb::Block based on the cloud object's access trait and given pixel type T and calls the given visitor with it.

Remarks
Currently only point clouds are supported, where LinearAccess is supported. The block will either be a ArrrayPlaneBlock<PointT>, LinearPlaneBlock<PointT> or a ScatterBlock<PointT, 3>. If the x, y and z planes are interleaved in this order, a ArrayPlaneBlock<PointT> or LinearPlaneBlock<PointT> is used, providing superior performance. Otherwise ScatterBlock<PointT, 3> is used.
If T is an arithmetic type, the behavior is equivalent to Visit, except the component type is not dispatched and instead T is used. In this case, PointT will be LinearValue<T, 3> or RefValue<T, 3>. Otherwise T will be used as PointT directly.
Template Parameters
TType of the pixel, that can be accessed through the Block.
VISITORCallable that is called with the typed CvbConcepts::Block.
Parameters
[in]visitorCallable of signature auto(Block<T,ACCESS_TRAIT>).
[in]cloudPointCloud to create typed CvbConcepts::Block for.
Returns
Whatever visitor returns.
Exceptions
std::runtime_errorif no pixel type could be matched.
std::domain_errorif properties of the planes differ.
