Detailed Description

template<typename NormalT>
class pcl::NormalRefinement< NormalT >

Normal vector refinement class

This class refines a set of already estimated normals by iteratively updating each normal to the (weighted) mean of all normals in its neighborhood. The intention is that you reuse the same point correspondences as used when estimating the original normals in order to avoid repeating a nearest neighbor search.

Note: This class avoids points for which a NaN is encountered in the neighborhood. In the special case where a point has only NaNs in its neighborhood, the resultant refined normal will be set to zero, i.e. this class only produces finite normals.

Usage example:

// Input point cloud

pcl::PointCloud<PointT> cloud;
 
// Fill cloud...
 
// Estimated and refined normals

pcl::PointCloud<NormalT> normals;

pcl::PointCloud<NormalT> normals_refined;
 
// Search parameters

const int k = 5;
std::vector<Indices > k_indices;
std::vector<std::vector<float> > k_sqr_distances;
 
// Run search

pcl::search::KdTree<pcl::PointXYZRGB> search;
search.setInputCloud (cloud.makeShared ());
search.nearestKSearch (cloud, Indices (), k, k_indices, k_sqr_distances);
 
// Use search results for normal estimation

pcl::NormalEstimation<PointT, NormalT> ne;

for (unsigned int i = 0; i < cloud.size (); ++i)
{
 NormalT normal;
 ne.computePointNormal (cloud, k_indices[i]
 normal.normal_x, normal.normal_y, normal.normal_z, normal.curvature);
 pcl::flipNormalTowardsViewpoint (cloud[i], cloud.sensor_origin_[0], cloud.sensor_origin_[1], cloud.sensor_origin_[2],
 normal.normal_x, normal.normal_y, normal.normal_z);
 normals.push_back (normal);
}
 
// Run refinement using search results

pcl::NormalRefinement<NormalT> nr (k_indices, k_sqr_distances);
nr.setInputCloud (normals.makeShared ());
nr.filter (normals_refined);
