MATLAB: Interpolating a 3D Point Cloud at a Defined Interval

3d surfaceinterpolationpoint cloud

I am trying to compare two 3D point clouds to each other, which requires interpolation in each dataset to compare exact coordinates. Is there a simple way in MATLAB to do this? I was hoping to have a defined XYZ grid of 1 cm intervals.

Hi,
Functions like delaunayTriangulation and scatteredInterpolant can be used to interpolate the data and get a Denser point cloud. For smoothening, use Savitzky-Golay filter.
Hope this helps!
