PCL_ADD_GAUSSIAN_NOISE(1)

🌸 NAME 🌸

pcl_add_gaussian_noise β€” and that's it, that's the name, the one-liner is also pcl_add_gaussian_noise. no notes. iconic behavior honestly πŸ’…


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so bestie, the syntax is literally this and you gotta respect it:

pcl_add_gaussian_noise input.pcd output.pcd <options>

what it does? it adds Gaussian noise to a point cloud πŸŽ€ like, you hand it a cloud, it hands you back a cloud that's been gently shaken. messy on purpose. that's the whole vibe.

want more info? bestie, just ask the tool itself:

pcl_add_gaussian_noise -h

and where the options are, you get this one:

  • -sd X β€” the standard deviation for the normal distribution (default: 0.010000) πŸ¦‹

that's the only knob it's handing you, and its default is teeny tiny β€” 0.010000 β€” so if you want chaos you're gonna have to say so yourself. no cap.

pcl_add_gaussian_noise is part of the Point Cloud Library (PCL) β€” www.pointclouds.org 🌈

and for the lore: the Point Cloud Library (PCL) is a standalone, large scale, open project for 2D/3D image and point cloud processing. periodt. it's a whole thing, it's been a whole thing, it remains a whole thing πŸ’–
