# ndt_omp

This package provides an OpenMP-boosted Normal Distributions Transform (and GICP) algorithm derived from pcl. The NDT algorithm is modified to be SSE-friendly and multi-threaded. It can run up to 10 times faster than its original version in pcl.

For using this package in non-ROS1 projects (ROS2 or without ROS), see forked repositories: [dfki-ric/pclomp](https://github.com/dfki-ric/pclomp) [tier4/ndt_omp](https://github.com/tier4/ndt_omp).

Several methods for neighbor voxel search are implemented. If you select pclomp::KDTREE, results will be completely the same as that of the original pcl::NDT. We recommend using pclomp::DIRECT7 which is faster and stable. If you need extremely fast registration, choose pclomp::DIRECT1, but it might be a bit unstable.
