This CGAL component will implement the Efficient RANSAC method [1] for primitive shape detection. From an unstructured point set with unoriented normals, the algorithm is able to detect a set of primitive shapes (plane, sphere, cylinder, cone and torus).

Status: Submitted to the Editorial Board and targeted for CGAL 4.7, Autumn 2015
