利用PCL处理Realsense点云数据-显示点云法线方向及出现问题的解决

在我们获得点云数据后，为了能够进行表面重建或者是进行物体的位姿确定，我们都需要确定物体表面的发现方向。

PCL中有现成的计算物体法线的类NormalEstimation，这个类做了以下3件事

1.得到p的最近邻

2.计算p的表面法线n

3.检查法线的朝向，然后拨乱反正。

默认的视角是(0,0,0)

计算一个点的法线

computePointNormal (const pcl::PointCloud<PointInT> &cloud, const std::vector<int> &indices, Eigen::Vector4f &plane_parameters, float &curvature);

前面两个参数很好理解，plane_parameters包含了4个参数，前面三个是法线的(nx,ny,nz)坐标，加上一个 nc .p_plane (centroid here) + p的坐标，然后最后一个参数是曲率。

	pcl::PointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>::Ptr cloud_old(new pcl::PointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>);
	pcl::PointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>::Ptr cloud_downsampled(new pcl::PointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>);
	pcl::PointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>::Ptr cloud(new pcl::PointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>);
	pcl::io::loadPCDFile("test_pcd.pcd", *cloud_old);

	//Use a voxelSampler to downsample
	pcl::VoxelGrid<pcl::PointXYZ> voxelSampler;
	voxelSampler.setInputCloud(cloud_old);
	voxelSampler.setLeafSize(0.01f, 0.01f, 0.01f);
	voxelSampler.filter(*cloud_downsampled);

	//Use a filter to reduce noise
	pcl::StatisticalOutlierRemoval<pcl::PointXYZ> statFilter;
	statFilter.setInputCloud(cloud_downsampled);
	statFilter.setMeanK(10);
	statFilter.setStddevMulThresh(0.2);
	statFilter.filter(*cloud);

	// Create the normal estimation class, and pass the input dataset to it
	pcl::NormalEstimation<pcl::PointXYZ, pcl::Normal> ne;
	ne.setInputCloud(cloud);

	// Create an empty kdtree representation, and pass it to the normal estimation object.
	// Its content will be filled inside the object, based on the given input dataset (as no other search surface is given).
	pcl::search::KdTree<pcl::PointXYZ>::Ptr tree(new pcl::search::KdTree<pcl::PointXYZ>());
	ne.setSearchMethod(tree);

	// Output datasets
	pcl::PointCloud<pcl::Normal>::Ptr normals(new pcl::PointCloud<pcl::Normal>);

	// Use all neighbors in a sphere of radius 1cm


	ne.setRadiusSearch(0.01);
	// Compute the features
	ne.compute(*normals);

	boost::shared_ptr<pcl::visualization::PCLVisualizer> viewer(new pcl::visualization::PCLVisualizer("3D Viewer"));
	viewer->setBackgroundColor(0, 0, 0);

	viewer->addPointCloud<pcl::PointXYZ>(cloud, "sample cloud");
	viewer->setPointCloudRenderingProperties(pcl::visualization::PCL_VISUALIZER_POINT_SIZE, 3, "sample cloud");
	viewer->addPointCloudNormals<pcl::PointXYZ, pcl::Normal>(cloud, normals, 10, 0.2, "normals");
	viewer->addCoordinateSystem(1.0);
	viewer->initCameraParameters();
	while (!viewer->wasStopped())
	{
		viewer->spinOnce(100);
		boost::this_thread::sleep(boost::posix_time::microseconds(100000));
	}
	return 0;
}

但是第一次运行时出现了这样的问题，no ovverride found for vtkactor,解决这个问题其实很简单，首先加上#include <vtkAutoInit.h>  

然后在mian的第一行加上VTK_MODULE_INIT(vtkRenderingOpenGL);  就没有问题了。
