I am compiling an opensource c++ program which uses PCL and OPENCV. The problem seems to be types transformation between different Eigen objects.
c:\program files (x86)\pcl 1.6.0\3rdparty\eigen\include\eigen\src\core\matrix.h(294): error C2338:
YOU_MIXED_DIFFERENT_NUMERIC_TYPES__YOU_NEED_TO_USE_THE_CAST_METHOD_OF_MATRIXBASE_TO_CAST_NUMERIC_TYPES_EXPLICITLY
Code about Eigen in the program:
cv::Mat R;
cv::Rodrigues( result.rvec, R );
Eigen::Matrix3d r;
cv::cv2eigen(R, r);
// 将平移向量和旋转矩阵转换成变换矩阵
Eigen::Isometry3d T = Eigen::Isometry3d::Identity();
Eigen::AngleAxisd angle(r);
cout<<"translation"<<endl;
Eigen::Translation<double,3> trans(result.tvec.at<double>(0,0), result.tvec.at<double>(0,1), result.tvec.at<double>(0,2));
T = angle;
T(0,3) = result.tvec.at<double>(0,0);
T(1,3) = result.tvec.at<double>(0,1);
T(2,3) = result.tvec.at<double>(0,2);
// Transform point clouds
cout<<"converting image to clouds"<<endl;
PointCloud::Ptr cloud1 = image2PointCloud( frame1.rgb, frame1.depth, camera );
PointCloud::Ptr cloud2 = image2PointCloud( frame2.rgb, frame2.depth, camera );
// Combine point clouds
cout<<"combining clouds"<<endl;
PointCloud::Ptr output (new PointCloud());
pcl::transformPointCloud( *cloud1, *output, T.matrix() ); // error occurs at this line, the compiler told.
*output += *cloud2;

The transformPointCloud
methods in PCL 1.6 expect the transformation matrix to be in float format (link).
You need to write
pcl::transformPointCloud( *cloud1, *output, T.cast<float>() );
The .matrix()
conversion is actually not necessary.
