Detailed Description

This message holds a collection of 3d points, plus optional additional information about each point.

pointCloud is a structured value type usable in QML. It maps directly to the sensor_msgs::msg::PointCloud ROS 2 message type.

Construct a pointCloud in QML by assigning a JavaScript object whose keys are its component properties, or by setting those properties individually.

Time of sensor data acquisition, coordinate frame ID.

points : list<vector3d>

Array of 3d points. Each Point32 should be interpreted as a 3d point
