[PCL] (1) PCL Point Cloud Library installation

1. installation file Download: Official website, I still prefer someone else to build a good installation package Ah, haha.

Http://www.pointclouds.org/downloads/windows.html

2. Fool-type installation (the following dependencies are integrated)

Write environment variable, this is very good, optional.

Boost, VTK, Kinect drivers are installed in the middle. Anyway is the next step, of course, my machine is Win7 system, not previously installed PCL, relatively pure.

The SDK for QT4.8.2 is then installed separately.

3. Testing

In the installation directory there is a Share/doc/pcl-1.6/tutorials/sources/pcd_write case program, using CMake3.3.2 to generate VS2010 project files.

The compile run generated a. pcd format file.

Also compile the following program: D:\Program Files (x86) \PCL 1.6.0\share\doc\pcl-1.6\tutorials\sources\cloud_viewer

This project references the class library of the QT4.8.2 SDK. Looking at the. pcd file that you just generated, the result is about a few small dots:

The basic contents of the PCD format file are as follows:
