3d camera for pangolin chop

[lyallmarcus]

Using the Pangolin CHOP but really missing the ability to use a 3d camera.
The Laser Chop does this incredibly well.
Is there any way of flattening geometry and cropping the scene in the same way that the laser chop does it?

Pangolin so frustrating. Good safety and mapping features. But that manual. My word.

I have a charging Beyond plugin that can do it.
PM me if you interested it .

Good suggestion – this is definitely something we can add. I’ve moved this topic over to RFEs.

this might help in the meantime too:

scriptSOP to simulate camera

I had meant to add this one here. A workflow with almost all CHOPs (except getting at the projection matrix still required a script CHOP) Otherwise this uses the Transform CHOP to multiply transform and projection matrix and another Transform CHOP to multiply the points with the resulting matrix. Scales much better then the pure script version and nicely shows some usage of the Transform CHOP. cameraToSOPwithCHOP.tox (3.4 KB) Cheers Markus
