# ProfileExtractEdgePoint3D

The ProfileExtractEdgePoint3D 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. allows you to extract edge points from a profile where a user-defined reference line and the profile intersect with each other.

The ProfileExtractEdgePoint3D function requires an existing Profile3D structure as input. You can use the function to extract rising edge points, falling edge points, or both. The function extracts all edge points of the input profile that fit the defined criteria as individual Point3D structures.

3D Point Cloud A point cloud is a 3D structure that consists of the data points collected by a 3D vision system during acquisition. with ProfileExtractEdgePoint3D | Profile View

The ProfileExtractEdgePoint3D function also allows you to use an external ProfileFixture3D input, which ensures that the function extracts the same profile feature for each acquisition Acquisition is the process or result of the vision system acquiring a new image..The ProfileExtractEdgePoint3D function can use the profile fixture A fixture is a coordinate location on the image that keeps the tool in the place determined by the fixture. to align the intersecting line in the profile, and produce consistent results regardless of positioning inconsistencies in the acquisition.

The ProfileExtractEdgePoint3D function produces a Point3D structure for each extracted corner point, that you can use as input for other functions.
