The Point Cloud Library (PCL) is a standalone, large scale, open project for 2D/3D image and point cloud processing.

PCL is released under the terms of the BSD license, and thus free for commercial and research use. We are financially supported by a consortium of commercial companies, with our own non-profit organization, Open Perception. We would also like to thank individual donors and contributors that have been helping the project.

Please refer to the platform specific tutorials:

• Linux
• Mac OS X
• Microsoft Windows

• PCL trunk documentation (generated 2 times a week)

Please read CONTRIBUTING.md.

For general questions on how to use the PCL, please use the pcl-users mailing list (do not forget to subscribe before posting). To report issues, please read CONTRIBUTING.md#bug-reports.
