Hey there, I have a problem with normal estimation and hope that someone can help me figuring this out. I have two installations of ros on two different Ubuntu machines. The code in question runs without problems on one installation. On the other using the same pcd files the code quits with a segmentation fault. This is the code: typename PointCloud::Ptr cloud(new PointCloud ()); sensor_msgs::PointCloud2 cloud_blob; if (reader.read(p.string(), cloud_blob) != -1) { pcl::fromROSMsg(cloud_blob, *cloud); } else { throw PCDLoaderException( string("Can't load cloud from file: ") + p.filename()); } typename KdTreeFLANN::Ptr kdTree = make_shared > (); kdTree->setInputCloud(cloud); pcl::IndicesConstPtr indices = createIndices(cloud->size()); NormalEstimation normalEstimator; normalEstimator.setInputCloud(cloud); normalEstimator.setSearchMethod(kdTree); normalEstimator.setIndices(indices); normalEstimator.setKSearch(10); normalEstimator.compute(*normals); I use the pcl version which ships with diamondback but also tried pcl_unstable from the repo (cloned it 2 days ago). This is a stack trace of the segmentation fault. pcl::KdTreeFLANN::nearestKSearch() at kdtree_flann.hpp:80 0x7ffff0cf7e10 pcl::KdTreeFLANN::nearestKSearch() at kdtree_flann.h:183 0x507753 boost::_mfi::mf4, int, int, std::vector >&, std::vector >&>::call >, int, int, std::vector >, std::vector > >() at mem_fn_template.hpp:485 0x505af5 boost::_mfi::mf4, int, int, std::vector >&, std::vector >&>::operator() at mem_fn_template.hpp:499 0x5050d2 boost::_bi::list5 > >, boost::arg<1>, boost::arg<2>, boost::arg<3>, boost::arg<4> >::operator() at bind.hpp:508 0x503b79 boost::_bi::bind_t, int, int, std::vector >&, std::vector >&>, boost::_bi::list5 > >, boost::arg<1>, boost::arg<2>, boost::arg<3>, boost::arg<4> > >::operator() at bind_template.hpp:145 0x501a39 boost::detail::function::function_obj_invoker4, int, int, std::vector >&, std::vector >&>, boost::_bi::list5 > >, boost::arg<1>, boost::arg<2>, boost::arg<3>, boost::arg<4> > >, int, int, double, std::vector >&, std::vector >&>::invoke() at function_template.hpp:132 0x4fefd7 boost::function4 >&, std::vector >&>::operator() at function_template.hpp:1.013 0x7ffff1eb6bb8 pcl::Feature::searchForNeighbors() at feature.h:355 0x7ffff1f0aca2 pcl::NormalEstimationOMP::computeFeature() at normal_3d_omp.hpp:58 0x7ffff1f0aca2 I wanted to run the unittest files which come with pcl_unstable but couldn't find them. So maybe as a first step someone could tell me where they are located. ( I executed "make test" in pcl_unstable/pcl/ ) Cheers, Flo
