Point Clouds to Geometry

Construct mesh from point cloud by computing implicit MLS function with marching cubes algorithm.

The Algorithm is as follows:

  • Compute an implicit MLS function approximating a 3D point cloud with given normals.
  • Sample the implicit function on a 3D volumetric grid.
  • Apply the marching cubes algorithm to extract a triangle mesh from the zero level set.
