I'd like to experiment with PCL algorithms to try and pick out fixed objects such as buoys or piers from a VLP-16 mounted on our research vessel as we travel up the coast.

You may need to add some additional wrappers for feature extraction if you are looking for things beyond the sample consensus models that we have. I dont think any of the point feature histogram utilities are currently wrapped. </div><div><br></div><div>Windows builds of the whole stack are a bit tricky.
