Some concerns about point cloud from vision sensor

Post by Keven Sun »

Hello,

I found a demo video about point cloud from vision sensor in this url https://forum.coppeliarobotics.com/viewtopic.php?t=9181. It's very urgent to my current work. I'm curious how this demo is implemented, so ask more guidance or the reference code.

PS: Is this demo related to version? I'm using version 3.5 now because the milling function is required for me.

Thank you for your help.

Hello,

that scene can be found in scenes/vision/pointCloudAcquiredByVisionSensor.ttt, however you will have to use the newest version of CoppeliaSim (or at least V4.2 I believe). Milling is a feature that was removed starting with CoppeliaSim V4.0 unfortunately.

Cheers

Many thanks for your help!

One more question, can the generated point cloud data by this demo be saved for other development? If so, how to save the point cloud data?

Thanks a lot!
