Aligns cloud to CAD surfaces and return the resultant transform, RMS, average and max errors.
0 |
Collection Object Name |
Cloud Name |
The name of the cloud to align. |
1 |
Collection Object Name Ref List |
Surfaces |
The name of the reference surface to be used in the alignment. |
2 |
Double |
Maximum Course CAD Mesh Edge Length |
The mesh edge length defines its resolution. Use a larger number for a faster solution. |
3 |
Boolean |
Use Fine CAD Mesh (50% of Coarse)? |
Use a fine mesh in the alignment process. |
4 |
Boolean |
Execute Alignment? |
Choose whether to move instrument during the alignment. |
5 |
Double |
RMS Deviation |
Resulting RMS deviation of the alignment. |
6 |
Double |
Average Deviation |
Average deviation of the alignment. |
7 |
Double |
Maximum Absolute Deviation |
Maximum deviation of the alignment. |
8 |
Transform |
Resultant Transform in Working Frame |
The data transformation after alignment. |
SUCCESS |
The cloud was aligned successfully. |
FAILURE |
The cloud or surface could not be found. |
Mesh Edge length (A2) used to be a fixed 10mm but that made the conversion process take a lot time with large mod- els. Use the finest mesh for the best results but this will take longer to compute. Values <5mm will be automatically set to exactly 5mm.
With Execute Alignment disabled the opportunity exists to move other objects in the job (such as CAD surfaces) using the inverse of the resulting analytical transform.
