PCL学习笔记（十三）-- 直通滤波器

一、简介

  直通滤波器可以对指定的维度进行一个简单的滤波，即去掉用户指定范围内部（或外部）的点。

二、代码分析

  在下列代码中，我们利用随机数生成了点云，作为滤波的输入点云数据，并将其打印到标准输出：

//填入点云数据
  cloud->width  = 5;
  cloud->height = 1;
  cloud->points.resize (cloud->width * cloud->height);
  for (size_t i = 0; i < cloud->points.size (); ++i)
  {
    cloud->points[i].x = rand () / (RAND_MAX + 1.0f)-0.5;
    cloud->points[i].y = rand () / (RAND_MAX + 1.0f)-0.5;
    cloud->points[i].z = rand () / (RAND_MAX + 1.0f)-0.5;
  }
  std::cerr << "Cloud before filtering: " << std::endl;
  for (size_t i = 0; i < cloud->points.size (); ++i)
    std::cerr << "    " << cloud->points[i].x << " " 
                        << cloud->points[i].y << " " 
                        << cloud->points[i].z << std::endl;

  接下来，我们创建了直通滤波器的对象，设立它的参数，滤波字段名被设为Z轴方向，可接受的范围设为（0.0 ，1.0），即将点云中所有点的z坐标不在该范围内的点会被过滤掉，这里是过滤掉，由函数setFilterLimitsNegative设定：

  // 创建滤波器对象
  pcl::PassThrough<pcl::PointXYZ> pass;
  pass.setInputCloud (cloud);
  pass.setFilterFieldName ("z");
  pass.setFilterLimits (0.0, 1.0);
  //pass.setFilterLimitsNegative (true);
  pass.filter (*cloud_filtered);

  最后我们打印出过滤后的点云数据：

  std::cerr << "Cloud after filtering: " << std::endl;
  for (size_t i = 0; i < cloud_filtered->points.size (); ++i)
    std::cerr << "    " << cloud_filtered->points[i].x << " " 
                        << cloud_filtered->points[i].y << " " 
                        << cloud_filtered->points[i].z << std::endl;

  整体代码：

#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <pcl/point_types.h>
#include <pcl/filters/passthrough.h>
int main (int argc, char** argv)
{ 
  srand(time(0));
  pcl::PointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>::Ptr cloud (new pcl::PointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>);
  pcl::PointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>::Ptr cloud_filtered (new pcl::PointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>);
  //填入点云数据
  cloud->width  = 5;
  cloud->height = 1;
  cloud->points.resize (cloud->width * cloud->height);
  for (size_t i = 0; i < cloud->points.size (); ++i)
  {
    cloud->points[i].x = rand () / (RAND_MAX + 1.0f)-0.5;
    cloud->points[i].y = rand () / (RAND_MAX + 1.0f)-0.5;
    cloud->points[i].z = rand () / (RAND_MAX + 1.0f)-0.5;
  }
  std::cerr << "Cloud before filtering: " << std::endl;
  for (size_t i = 0; i < cloud->points.size (); ++i)
    std::cerr << "    " << cloud->points[i].x << " " 
                        << cloud->points[i].y << " " 
                        << cloud->points[i].z << std::endl;
  // 创建滤波器对象
  pcl::PassThrough<pcl::PointXYZ> pass;
  pass.setInputCloud (cloud);
  pass.setFilterFieldName ("z");
  pass.setFilterLimits (0.0, 1.0);
  //pass.setFilterLimitsNegative (true);
  pass.filter (*cloud_filtered);

  std::cerr << "Cloud after filtering: " << std::endl;
  for (size_t i = 0; i < cloud_filtered->points.size (); ++i)
    std::cerr << "    " << cloud_filtered->points[i].x << " " 
                        << cloud_filtered->points[i].y << " " 
                        << cloud_filtered->points[i].z << std::endl;
  return (0);
}

三、编译效果

  从编译后的结果可以看出，虽然每次生成的点云数据都不同，但是z坐标不在（0，1）之间的点都被剔除了。

        PCL1.12.0版本下该项目存在如下报错：
