Required Tools and Libraries

The current CMakeLists.txt file only supports Linux (tested on Ubuntu 14.04) due to the current setup of the GTest library. Making it cross-platform is a TODO.

• GCC 4.7+ (uses C++11 features)
• CMake 2.8+: https://cmake.org/
• PCL (Point Cloud Library): http://pointclouds.org/
  • NOTE: The official binaries for Ubuntu are only supported up to version 14.04 (http://pointclouds.org/downloads/linux.html).
• Google Test: https://github.com/google/googletest
  • This code uses both Google Test and Google Mock components. See INSTALL_GTEST for install instructions.
