6
The <b>pcl_keypoints</b> library contains implementations of two point cloud keypoint detection algorithms.
7
Keypoints (also referred to as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interest_point_detection">interest points</a>)
8
are points in an image or point cloud that are stable, distinctive, and can be identified using a well-defined
9
detection criterion. Typically, the number of interest points in a point cloud will be much smaller than the total
10
number of points in the cloud, and when used in combination with local feature descriptors at each keypoint, the
11
keypoints and descriptors can be used to form a compact—yet descriptive—representation of the original
12
data.
