Point Cloud Library
Appearance
PCL (Point Cloud Library) is a comprehensive open source library for n-D Point Clouds and 3D geometry processing. The library contains numerous state-of-the art algorithms including filtering, feature estimation, surface reconstruction, registration, model fitting and segmentation. PCL was originally developed as the 3D processing backbone of ROS (Robot Operating System), but it was soon released as an independent library. While initial development targeted Linux operating systems, as of version 0.6, PCL has been ported and provides partial support for Windows, MacOS, and Android.
PCL is released under the terms of the BSD license, and is open source software. It is free for commercial and research use.
