Generally, a Point-Cloud is an array of coordinates that specify the shape of a 2D or 3D object. You can use a Point-Cloud FB for many reasons - for example, to reverse-engineer the shape of a Cam. From the shape, you can also reverse-engineer the motion of a Cam-Follower. Use the Point-Cloud FB to: •Import data that represents the shape of a 2D object •Fit a curve to the data and shape of the 2D object |
