Creating meshes without the bubbles

[Laserbrain]

I've fiddled with mesh reconstruction in meshlab and CC, but I've never figured out a way to avoid all of the bubbling effects that tend to happen.

Are there some settings I can use to minimize the reconstructions tendency to want to create surfaces everywhere? Even a tip on how to do it in meshlab would be appreciated.

My point clouds have normals, so the reconstructed surfaces in line with the normals look good. Everywhere else goes to bubble-ville.

Thanks

To remove the bubbles you have to:

• use the latest version of CC (2.6 - it includes PoissonRecon with "screening" by default)
• enable the 'output density SF as checkbox' (see http://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/in ... issonRecon). This allows you to remove the parts of the mesh that are too far from the input cloud (see the second part of the wiki documentation)

Awesome!!

Thanks, I didn't know about that wiki page!
