How to Convert a Point Cloud into a Solid 3D Mesh
Within the field of 3D modeling, point clouds are now considered a core source of information for producing extremely detailed models. Generated from 3D scanning techniques using devices such as LiDAR scanners or photogrammetry software, a point cloud represents objects as a grouping of discrete points in space. Every 3D mesh is created from discrete points, so a 3D mesh can be created from a point cloud for most purposes in engineering, animation, or manufacturing. The poi
