RAPID RADIOMETRIC ENHANCEMENT OF COLORED 3D POINT CLOUDS USING COLOR BALANCING

Modules for radiometric enhancement of colored 3D point clouds using color balancing

Description

This implementation includes modules for radiometric enhancement of colored 3D point clouds. The introduced method balances the colors of -preferably but not necessarily- overlapping point clouds in such a way that the color variances in overlapping parts of the point clouds are reduced. See other postings of the author for very fast loading and saving of n-dimensional, possibly colored and bulky point clouds. The implementation is based on "Rapid Radiometric Enhancement of Colored 3D Point Clouds using Color Balancing", U. Yilmaz and O. Hellwich, Proceedings of 3DTV-CON, pp. 1-4, 2010.

USAGE
-----
cbalance -------> enhances point clouds radiometrically using color balancing
cbalanceTest ---> is an auxiliary module to show how cbalance works.
