Detect a cuboid in a point cloud using pcfitcuboid function. The function stores the cuboid parameters as a cuboidModel object.

Read point cloud data into the workspace.

ptCloud = pcread('highwayScene.pcd');

Search the point cloud within a specified region of interest (ROI). Create a point cloud of only the detected points.

roi = [-30 30 -20 30 -8 13];
in = findPointsInROI(ptCloud,roi);
ptCloudIn = select(ptCloud,in);

Plot the point cloud of detected points.

   figure
   pcshow(ptCloudIn.Location)
   xlabel('X(m)')
   ylabel('Y(m)')
   zlabel('Z(m)')
   title('Detected Points in ROI')

Find the indices of the points in a specified ROI within the point cloud.

roi = [9.6 13.8 7.9 9.3 -2.5 3];
sampleIndices = findPointsInROI(ptCloudIn,roi);

Fit a cuboid to the selected set of points in the point cloud.

 model = pcfitcuboid(ptCloudIn,sampleIndices);
  figure
  pcshow(ptCloudIn.Location)
  xlabel('X(m)')
  ylabel('Y(m)')
  zlabel('Z(m)')
  title('Detect a Cuboid in a Point Cloud')

Plot the cuboid box in the point cloud.
