/**
 * @class   vtkDepthImageToPointCloud
 * @brief   convert a depth image into a point cloud
 *
 *
 * vtkDepthImageToPointCloud is a filter that acquires its input
 * from a depth image and converts it to point cloud represented as a
 * vtkPolyData. This can then be used in a visualization pipeline.
 *
 * The filter takes two input images, one of which is optional. The first
 * image is a (required) depth image containing z-buffer values. The second
 * image is an (optional) scalar image. The information in the z-buffer
 * image, plus a specified camera, is used to generate x-y-z coordinates of
 * the output point cloud (i.e., the points in a vtkPolyData). The second
 * scalar image is (optionally) output as scalars to the output point
 * cloud. Note that the depth image must be a single component image, with
 * values ranging between the near and far clipping range [-1,1].
 *
 * Note that if only a single input is provided, then the input is
 * interpreted in one of two ways. First, if the "ZBuffer" point data is
 * provided, then the input image is assumed to be color scalars with the
 * depth data provided in the "ZBuffer" data array. (This is consistent with
 * the vtkRendererSource filter with DepthValues enabled.) Otherwise, the
 * input image is assumed to be a depth image.
 *
 * It is (optionally) possible to cull points located on the near and far
 * clipping planes. This may better simulate the generation of a scanned
 * object point cloud.
 *
 * @warning
 * For the camera to transform the image depths into a point cloud, this
 * filter makes assumptions about the origin of the depth image (and
 * associated color scalar image). This class performs point by point
 * transformation. The view matrix is used to transform each pixel. IMPORTANT
 * NOTE: The transformation occurs by normalizing the image pixels into the
 * (-1,1) view space (depth values are passed thru). The process follows the
 * vtkCoordinate class which is the standard for VTK rendering
 * transformations. Subtle differences in whether the lower left pixel origin
 * are at the center of the pixel versus the lower-left corner of the pixel
 * will make slight differences in how pixels are transformed. (Similarly for
 * the upper right pixel as well). This half pixel difference can cause
 * transformation issues. (The code is commented appropriately.)
 *
 * @warning
 * This class has been threaded with vtkSMPTools. Using TBB or other
 * non-sequential type (set in the CMake variable
 * VTK_SMP_IMPLEMENTATION_TYPE) may improve performance significantly.
