1、MATLAB读取pcd文件
% 读取 pcd 文件，并取出 xyz 坐标
ptCloud = pcread('table.pcd');
% 可视化显示当前 pcd 文件
pcshow(ptCloud);
% 将该文件的 xyz 坐标取出
point_xyz = ptCloud.Location;
% 分别取出 x, y, z 坐标，并转化为 double 型（一开始是 single 类型）
px = double(point_xyz(:,1));
py = double(point_xyz(:,2));
pz = double(point_xyz(:,3));
用于存储所读取 pcd 文件变量 ptCloud 的数据格式：
其中Location 就是点云的 xyz 坐标，这里使用的是 n 行 3 列分别对应 xyz，所以将其取出可以进行后续的处理操作，例如转换为 mat 格式等。
2、pcd转ply
pcd文件
ply文件
用一个loadpcd函数导进matlab，然后再用工具箱自带的pointCloud函数把导进的三维点云矩阵变成点云对象，就可以进行其他操作了。以下是loadpcd文件代码
%LOADPCD Load a point cloud from a PCD format file
%
% P = LOADPCD(FNAME) is a set of points loaded from the PCD format
% file FNAME.
%
% For an unorganized point cloud the columns of P represent the 3D points,
% and the rows are: x, y, z, r, g, b, a depending on the FIELDS in the file.
%
% For an organized point cloud P is a 3-dimensional matrix (HxWxN) where the
% N planes are: x, y, z, r, g, b, a depending on the FIELDS in the file. This
% format is useful since the planes z, r, g, b, a can be considered as images.
%
% Notes::
% - Only the x y z field format are currently supported
% - The file can be in ascii or binary format, binary_compressed is not
% supported
%
% See also pclviewer, lspcd, loadpcd.

将pcd转成ply
pt=loadpcd('Worldpoints.pcd')
ptCloud = pointCloud(pt')
%ptCloudOut = pcdownsample(ptCloud,'gridAverage',1)
pcwrite(ptCloud,'Worldpoints_down.ply')
ply文件显示
ptCloud = pcread('Worldpoints_down.ply');
% 可视化显示当前 pcd 文件
pcshow(ptCloud);
