Surface Features

Icon Name Description / Applications Modules
ReplaceInvalidSurfacePoints

Replaces all invalid points with a given Z value.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceArea

Computes the surface area of given surface.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceBoundingBox

Computes the bounding box 3D of given surface.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceBoundingBox_OrNil

Computes the bounding box 3D of given surface; returns NIL if no valid point is present.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceFlatness

Computes the surface flatness i.e. how thick the surface is according to the input plane.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceLocalMaxima

Finds surface locations characterized by locally maximal heights.


Detection of characteristic points, usually after some surface transformations.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceLocalMinima

Finds surface locations characterized by locally minimal heights.


Detection of characteristic points, usually after some surface transformations.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceMassCenter

Computes the mass center of surface points.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceMassCenter_OrNil

Computes the mass center of surface points; returns NIL if the surface is empty in the given region.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceMaximalPoint

Finds the surface point with maximal Z coordinate.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceMedian

Finds the median Z coordinate of the surface points.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceMedian_OrNil

Finds the median Z coordinate of the surface points; returns NIL if the surface is empty in the given region.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceMinimalPoint

Finds the surface point with minimal Z coordinate.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceMultiplePointsAlongAxis

Returns multiple arrays of surface points along X or Y axis.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceMultipleProfilesAlongAxis

Creates the profiles of point Z values along X or Y axis.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceNormalsImage

Computes a normals image for a surface

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceProfileAlongPath

Creates a series of segments across the input path, measures the average surface height on each of the segments, and creates the final profile from those values.


This is the first step of all 1D Edge Detection 3D operations. Here available for direct use by the user.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceSinglePointsAlongAxis

Returns single array of surface points along X or Y axis.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceSingleProfileAlongAxis

Creates the profile of point Z values along X or Y axis.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceToPlaneDistanceImage

Computes the image of the distances of the input surface points from a given plane.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceValidPointsRegion

Computes region of locations where points are valid in a surface and where they are invalid.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceVolume_Double

Computes the volume of a surface with respect to another surface.

Vision3DStandard
SurfaceVolume_Single

Computes the volume of a surface with respect to a plane.
