<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Im new to VTK so I’m trying to find a good solution to my representation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I receive from a sensor a point cloud and I would like to represent it. So far, I’ve been using point cloud library with Qt and it works fine.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, now I need to draw a 3D rectangle around each point of the point cloud and the computation is slow. At the moment, the point cloud is 1024 points, but it will get bigger soon.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My current code is using PCL / QT :<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Viewer->addCube (lPoint1.x , lPoint2.x, lPoint1.y, lPoint2.y, lPoint1.z, lPoint2.z, lColor.redF(), lColor.greenF(), lColor.blueF(), "cube"+std::to_string(i), 0);<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For each point, then VTKWidget->update ();<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is there a better way to draw lot of rectangles (not necessarily using PCL) ? I’ve found this old post :
<a href="http://vtk.1045678.n5.nabble.com/display-tens-of-thousands-of-cubes-td5463661.html">
http://vtk.1045678.n5.nabble.com/display-tens-of-thousands-of-cubes-td5463661.html</a> but from what I understand, it can only draw cubes and not rectangles.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
