PCL_PCD_CHANGE_VIEWPOINT(1)

📦 version 1.15.1, in debian bookworm, debian trixie, ubuntu jammy, ubuntu noble, ubuntu questing, ubuntu resolute, ubuntu stonking

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for pcl_pcd_change_viewpoint — yes that's the whole name, it's giving "I was named by a build script and honestly? iconic." 💅 It's a User Commands situation, part of the PCL (Point Cloud Library) crew, and it does exactly one thing and does it slay.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's the vibe. The syntax is, no cap:

pcl_pcd_change_viewpoint input.pcd output.pcd <options>

That's it. That's the whole job. It changes the viewpoint information in a PCD file — you feed it one PCD, it hands you back another one with the viewpoint field rewritten, main character energy fr fr. 🦋

And if you want more deets, bestie, just ask it yourself:

pcl_pcd_change_viewpoint -h

Lowkey the most reliable source of truth is the program itself. 🙈

So where options are: and there's literally one of them, but she's important:

  • -viewpoint Tx,Ty,Tz,Qw,Qx,Qy,Qz — sets the viewpoint, babes. Seven numbers, comma-separated, no spaces: translation in Tx,Ty,Tz and then the quaternion in Qw,Qx,Qy,Qz order. Keep them exactly in that order, don't shuffle them, don't add spaces, just vibes and commas. ✨
heads up: the -h thing is a flag you pass to the program, not part of the input.pcd output.pcd argument dance. Don't come for me, I'm just the messenger. 💀
