Data Processing and Visualization

Convert coordinate frames, generate trajectories, visualize point clouds and transformations

Use the data processing and visualization functions as utility functions that convert between different coordinate systems, generate trajectories from waypoints, or visualize data like point clouds or UAV poses.
