Module keypoints

Detailed Description

Overview

The pcl_keypoints library contains implementations of two point cloud keypoint detection algorithms. Keypoints (also referred to as interest points) are points in an image or point cloud that are stable, distinctive, and can be identified using a well-defined detection criteron. Typically, the number of interest points in a point cloud will be much smaller than the total number of points in the cloud, and when used in combination with local feature descriptors at each keypoint, the keypoints and descriptors can be used to form a compact—yet descriptive—representation of the original data.
