Outlier Removal#
An internal algorithm determines whether a pixel's depth (measured in gray values of the range map) differs too much from the depth of its neighboring pixels. Pixels identified as differing too much are called outliers and will be classed as invalid.
By enabling the OutlierRemoval
parameter, these outliers will be removed from the output. The representation of outliers varies by image component:
Image Component | Representation of Outliers |
---|---|
Range Map | Set to the value specified by the Scan3dInvalidDataValue parameter |
Confidence Map | Set to zero |
Point Cloud | All 3 coordinates set to the value specified by the Scan3dInvalidDataValue parameter |
