Detailed Description

template<typename PointT>
class pcl::ExtractIndices< PointT >

ExtractIndices extracts a set of indices from a point cloud.

Usage example:

 pcl::ExtractIndices<PointType> eifilter (true); // Initializing with true will allow us to extract the removed indices
 eifilter.setInputCloud (cloud_in);
 eifilter.setIndices (indices_in);
 eifilter.filter (*cloud_out);
 // The resulting cloud_out contains all points of cloud_in that are indexed by indices_in
 indices_rem = eifilter.getRemovedIndices ();
 // The indices_rem array indexes all points of cloud_in that are not indexed by indices_in
 eifilter.setNegative (true);
 eifilter.filter (*indices_out);
 // Alternatively: the indices_out array is identical to indices_rem
 eifilter.setNegative (false);
 eifilter.setUserFilterValue (1337.0);
 eifilter.filterDirectly (cloud_in);
 // This will directly modify cloud_in instead of creating a copy of the cloud
 // It will overwrite all fields of the filtered points by the user value: 1337

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename PointT>
pcl::ExtractIndices< PointT >::ExtractIndices ( bool  extract_removed_indices = false) [inline]

Constructor.

Parameters:
[in]extract_removed_indicesSet to true if you want to be able to extract the indices of points being removed (default = false).

Definition at line 82 of file extract_indices.h.


Member Function Documentation

template<typename PointT>
void pcl::FilterIndices< PointT >::filter ( PointCloud output) [inline, inherited]

Calls the filtering method and returns the filtered dataset in output.

Parameters:
[out]outputthe resultant filtered point cloud dataset

Reimplemented from pcl::Filter< PointT >.

Definition at line 92 of file filter_indices.h.

template<typename PointT>
void pcl::FilterIndices< PointT >::filter ( std::vector< int > &  indices) [inline, inherited]

Calls the filtering method and returns the filtered point cloud indices.

Parameters:
[out]indicesthe resultant filtered point cloud indices

Definition at line 101 of file filter_indices.h.

template<typename PointT >
void pcl::ExtractIndices< PointT >::filterDirectly ( PointCloudPtr cloud)

Apply the filter and store the results directly in the input cloud.

This method will save the time and memory copy of an output cloud but can not alter the original size of the input cloud: It operates as though setKeepOrganized() is true and will overwrite the filtered points instead of remove them. All fields of filtered points are replaced with the value set by setUserFilterValue() (default = NaN). This method also automatically alters the input cloud set via setInputCloud(). It does not alter the value of the internal keep organized boolean as set by setKeepOrganized().

Parameters:
in/out]cloud The point cloud used for input and output.

Definition at line 48 of file extract_indices.hpp.

template<typename PointT>
IndicesPtr const pcl::PCLBase< PointT >::getIndices ( ) [inline, inherited]

Get a pointer to the vector of indices used.

Definition at line 190 of file pcl_base.h.

template<typename PointT>
PointCloudConstPtr const pcl::PCLBase< PointT >::getInputCloud ( ) [inline, inherited]

Get a pointer to the input point cloud dataset.

Definition at line 107 of file pcl_base.h.

template<typename PointT>
bool pcl::FilterIndices< PointT >::getKeepOrganized ( ) [inline, inherited]

Get whether the filtered points should be kept and set to the value given through setUserFilterValue (default = NaN), or removed from the PointCloud, thus potentially breaking its organized structure.

Returns:
The value of the internal keep_organized_ parameter; false = remove points (default), true = redefine points, keep structure.

Definition at line 145 of file filter_indices.h.

template<typename PointT>
bool pcl::FilterIndices< PointT >::getNegative ( ) [inline, inherited]

Get whether the regular conditions for points filtering should apply, or the inverted conditions.

Returns:
The value of the internal negative_ parameter; false = normal filter behavior (default), true = inverted behavior.

Definition at line 125 of file filter_indices.h.

template<typename PointT>
IndicesConstPtr const pcl::FilterIndices< PointT >::getRemovedIndices ( ) [inline, inherited]
