Point Color

Occasionally, you may want to color point clouds for a better visualization.

In this case, you can use the Point Color to change how point clouds should be colored.

Currently, only a global Color Mode is supported!

At the moment we support the following coloring:

• Original
• Normals
• Gray
• Single
• Unique
• Frame Time

• Highlight Selected

Original

Shows the original color of the Point Cloud.

Typically, this colorization mode shows the RGB data of a point cloud.

Normals

Shows the point normals of Point Clouds.

The normals of a point cloud are vectors that describe the orientation of a point in a 3D point cloud with respect to its surrounding points. In other words, they provide information about the local geometry of the surface represented by the point cloud.

Gray

Shows all Point Clouds colored in Gray.

Single

Shows all Point Clouds colored in Red

It's useful when comparing point cloud data with 2D plans or IFC models.

Unique

Visualizes each visible scan with a unique color.

It's useful for comparing point clouds from the same scene but captured at a different date.

Frame Time

For InU-Scan datasets, the point cloud can be colored according to the recorded time frame

The points differ in color from the beginning of the scan to the end of the scan. Blue points are scanned first, red colored points last.

Highlight Selected

If a model consists of several point clouds, a selected scan can be visualized in Red by activating the option Highlight Selected.

How to highlight a scan?

• Choose the Scan you want to highlight in the Navigation Pane
• Select Highlight Selected in the Point Color menu
