Projection or intersection

Hi,

Is there a way to project points onto a pointcloud if we give them the direction where to go ?
My issue is that I have to assign values on a pointcloud, values that I measure at a given distance (50cm for example) from a wall, a table, the ground, that I have in my 3D model. I was thinking to go for the intersection of a line with the pointcloud and get the intersection or closest neighbour maybe.

I've searched on the forum but I couldn't find the right tool, if maybe it does exist!

Thanks for your help.

Nope, not this way at least.

However you can interpolate a scalar field from one cloud to another (only with the nearest neighbor distance however).
