Uhlik’s Point Cloud Visualizer is an advanced visualization tool that handles voluminous datasets. This point cloud file viewer is powerful because it enables users to visualize, filter, and edit datasets and display them in Blender’s viewer.
Jakub Uhlik – Point Cloud Visualizer Features
- High-Performance Rendering: Able to present millions of coloured points in a 3D viewport, only limited to the system and GPU memory.
- Broad File Format Compatibility: Supports formats such as PLY, LAS/LAZ, E57, PTS, and many more for reading and writing.
- Robust Editing Features: A set of extensive and diverse editing tools, including subsampling, normal estimating, and colour correction, is offered.
- Flexible Shading Options: Normal displays, analytic shaders, and many other shading methods can be done.
- Mesh Conversion Functionality: Point clouds can be converted to Blender models and VDB volumes. These can then be easily geometry-nodded and rendered.
- Integrated GPU Rendering: Allows the rendering of sequences or images with transparency features.
- Point Cloud Creation: Point clouds are created from mesh surfaces, volumes, and entire scenes using simulated LIDAR or photogrammetry techniques.
- Clipping Plane Management: Contains visual tools for saving and restoring states of clipping planes.
- Debugging Tools: It comes with a Python API to show 3D locations, normals, colours, and other data needed for debugging.
- Smooth Navigation Experience: Enables interaction with large datasets by revealing subsampled points for effortless, fast navigation.
