# ExtractEdge3D

The ExtractEdge3D function Functions are tools that are available in Spreadsheet for processing and analyzing acquisitions or other results. You can add functions to your Spreadsheet job to create tool chains and produce results for specific applications. is used to extract edges as Line3D structures from the specified region of the point cloud A point cloud is a 3D structure that consists of the data points collected by a 3D vision system during acquisition.. The edges start at one plane of the specified 3D box Region of Interest (ROI), and extend to the opposite plane of the box. Each extracted edge is roughly parallel to a specific edge of the box, called the canonical edge.

The extracted edges are classified as either convex or concave, depending on the surface characteristics along the extraction direction. The extracted edges are returned in an Edges3D structure.
