Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install pcl on CentOS 8.
What is pcl
The Point Cloud Library (or PCL) is a large scale, open project for point cloud processing. The PCL framework contains numerous state-of-the art algorithms including filtering, feature estimation, surface reconstruction, registration, model fitting and segmentation.
We can use yum or dnf to install pcl on CentOS 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install pcl.
