TouchDesigner includes a number of ways for working with point clouds, whether you’re looking to import pre-existing files or generating some of your own.

But maybe you’re interested in creating point clouds that go beyond typical geometric forms like the sphere, box, and torus? Look no further!

In this video, Jack DiLaura walks you through generating geometric point clouds using a combination of TOPs and SOPs. You’ll look at techniques for creating textures to be used for 3D geometry generation, modifying and manipulating the 3D geometry to make a more interesting point cloud, as well as utilizing conversion between operator families to take advantage of family-specific functionality.
