  2. Point cloud - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_cloud

    While point clouds can be directly rendered and inspected, [10] [11] point clouds are often converted to polygon mesh or triangle mesh models, non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) surface models, or CAD models through a process commonly referred to as surface reconstruction. There are many techniques for converting a point cloud to a 3D ...

  3. Computer representation of surfaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_representation_of...

    An open surface with u- and v-flow lines and Z-contours shown. In technical applications of 3D computer graphics such as computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing, surfaces are one way of representing objects. The other ways are wireframe (lines and curves) and solids.

  4. Freezing-point depression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezing-point_depression

    The phenomenon of freezing-point depression has many practical uses. The radiator fluid in an automobile is a mixture of water and ethylene glycol. The freezing-point depression prevents radiators from freezing in winter. Road salting takes advantage of this effect to lower the freezing point of the ice it is placed on.

  5. Point Cloud Library - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_Cloud_Library

    RangeImageVisualizer can be used to visualize a range image as a 3D point cloud or as a picture where the colors correspond to range values. PCLVisualizer is a visualization class with several applications. It can display both simple point cloud and point cloud that contains colour data.

  6. Iterative closest point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterative_Closest_Point

    CloudCompare an open source point and model processing tool that includes an implementation of the ICP algorithm. Released under the GNU General Public License. PCL (Point Cloud Library) is an open-source framework for n-dimensional point clouds and 3D geometry processing. It includes several variants of the ICP algorithm.

  7. Point-set registration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point-set_registration

    Point set registration is the process of aligning two point sets. Here, the blue fish is being registered to the red fish. In computer vision, pattern recognition, and robotics, point-set registration, also known as point-cloud registration or scan matching, is the process of finding a spatial transformation (e.g., scaling, rotation and translation) that aligns two point clouds.

  8. Cloud point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_point

    The cloud point is analogous to the 'dew point' at which a gas-liquid phase transition called condensation occurs in water vapour (humid air) to form liquid water (dew or clouds). When the temperature is below 0 °C, the dew point is called the frost point, as water vapour undergoes gas-solid phase transition called deposition , solidification ...

  9. Freezing point depression osmometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezing_point_depression...

    The osmometer uses the solution's freezing point depression to establish its strength. It is also used to determine the level of osmotically appropriate body fluid in various chemicals dissolved in the blood using the relationship in which a mole of dissolved substance reduces the freezing point of a kilogram of water by 1.86 °C (35.35 °F ...
