Hi,
If i got it right, the original question can be addressed somewhat with inashape3d (alphashape3d package), something like:
library(alphashape3d)
set1 <- matrix(rnorm(333)/2,ncol=3)
plot3d(set1)
ashape3d.obj <- ashape3d(set1, alpha = 2)
set2 <- matrix(rnorm(33)/2,ncol=3)
in3d <- inashape3d(ashape3d.obj, points = set2)
plot(ashape3d.obj, transparency = 0.2)
rgl.points(points[in3d,], col ="blue")

I would appreciate any enlightenment about why the command at the end (below in a toy example) crashes R when I try to ID the points in the hull using pip3d(), from package ptinpoly. convhulln() is from package geometry.  Have I not supplied the right “Faces” argument to pip3d()?
