Point cloud color modes
This mode colors the points based on point height, meaning that a point close to the ground will have one color, and a point at the top of a tree will have another.Β The height mode can help you understand the scene quicker because it separates the points from each other. You can choose between two color gradients:
- Rainbow Road: All colors of the rainbowΒ
- Gradient: A gradient going from blue to red based on the height.
Read about its settings under the Window menuο»Ώ page.
This mode colors the points based on their distance from the origin of the point cloud. This can be useful while working in grid-view to know if certain points are belonging to the current object or are located further away. You can choose one setting
- Rainbow Road: All colors of the rainbow. Cycling accoording to the point cloud color interval setting.
Read about its settings under the Window menuο»Ώ page.
In this mode the color is determined by how much the environment reflects light. A very reflective surface will create a bright point, and a semi-reflective will make a less bright point. This mode is beneficial when annotating roads, as the white lane markings reflect light very well.Β There are two options for viewing intensity.
- Intensity, grayscale colormap showing the intensity of each point.
- Intensity gradient, a colorful colormap showing the intensity of each point going from blue to red, where red are more reflective.
Both intensity modes allows you to change the brightness, contrast, Gamma, and range of the intensity. Curious to know more? Go to Intensity mode settingsο»Ώ.
This mode is only available in 3D point classificationο»Ώ tasks. This will color the point cloud with the class that have been annotated for each point in the point cloud. There are two versions of this color mode
- Classification: A color mode which shows the class color of each annotated point in the point cloud.
- Classification Intensity: A hybrid color mode between classification and intensity, this may be required for annotating reflective parts of the scene, such as road paintings which cannot be revealed without this color mode.
This mode is only available in 3D multi-sensorο»Ώ tasks. This allows you to view each 3D sensor with a unique color. In the Sensor display settingsο»Ώ you are able to toggle on and off sensors you wish to view or not view.
This color mode will projects the colors of the camera image(s) into the point cloud. Any point that does not fall into a camera image will become transparent.
In certain scenes, only the view point of the current camera will have the colors applied to the point cloud due to a technical limitation. Meanwhile, in pure image based scenes the colors from each image and frame will be applied to the point cloud.
