Open Source BSD Point Cloud Software

Intel® RealSense™ SDK 2.0 is a cross-platform library for Intel® RealSense™ depth cameras. The SDK allows depth and color streaming and provides intrinsic and extrinsic calibration information. The library also offers synthetic streams (point cloud, depth aligned to color and vise-versa), and built-in support for recording and playback of streaming sessions. Intel has EOLed the LiDAR, Facial Authentication, and Tracking product lines. These products have been discontinued and will no longer be available for new orders. Intel WILL continue to sell and support stereo products including the following: D410, D415, D430, , D401 ,D450 modules and D415, D435, D435i, D435f, D405, D455, D457 depth cameras. We will also continue the work to support and develop our LibRealSense open source SDK.

COLMAP is a general-purpose Structure-from-Motion (SfM) and Multi-View Stereo (MVS) pipeline with a graphical and command-line interface. It offers a wide range of features for the reconstruction of ordered and unordered image collections. The software is licensed under the new BSD license.

What is Point Cloud Skinner? This is a Python script for Blender 2.6x or later and allows you to create a surface from just a cloud of vertices. You can get a complete 3D mesh with faces on it out of just a point cloud that has only vertices and no faces. Please watch the video to get the idea of what the script can do for your artwork. Features: This script, Point Cloud Skinner can skin a cloud of vertices, which means to create a 3D surfaced mesh out of just a cloud of vertices that has no faces. It can skin any shapes of point clouds, such as a surveyed geography point cloud that represents a landform somewhere, a fluid volumetric point cloud obtained by numerical fluid simulation, or anything you like. You can see some sample meshes that the script produced in "Results" part below.

A suite of tools for processing and analyzing meshes and point clouds. 1) Ensuring that meshes are manifold, ie, "nice" 2) Simple smoothing/noise reduction 3) Bare-bones point cloud to mesh and robust normals for point clouds 4) Mesh simplification 5) Curvature calculation on meshes 6) Local shape descriptors on meshes

Open source point cloud viewer forked from Radiohead House of Cards Project, based on the Processing Programming Language.

BADGr, the BoxGrasping toolbox, is a package for Box Approximation, Decomposition, and Grasping. The toolbox was developed in the Computer Vision & Active Perception Lab, at the Royal Institute of Technology, as a participant of the EU research project PACO-PLUS, and published at the project's end in Summer 2010. BADGr provides modules to approximate the shape of a point cloud (possibly from sensor data) by box primitives. These box primitives then serve as a base for the generation of box-based pre-grasp hypotheses for robot grippers.

PhotoCloud is a tool to browse and a navigate for datasets composed of (a) a collection of registered images and (b) a 3D model over which images are aligned. The 3D model can be a point-cloud, triangle mesh. PhotoCloud is based on a client/server architecture and it is scalable: very large dataset (both in terms of (a) and (b) can be handled.

The Point Cloud Compiler is a tool for converting point cloud image (3D) to human-visible image (2D) by orthogonal projection.

using simple cuboids and gjk algorithm, this general purpose algorithm gives a ready made code to work with swissranger 3D camera.

Volumetric is a 3-D image processing tool. It reads point cloud data, expands it to a volumetric space with highly effective memory usage, and filter out necessary points.

ZPR is a program that produces orthophotos. The method used is to give colors to point-cloud (photo obtained by a digital camera, cloud obtained by a laser scanner) and to project the point-cloud to a requested plane. With this method, the projection pla
