How to run meshlab from matlab

Hi every body,

I try to run meshlab from MATLAB to compute some geometrical value like the tensor of inertia or the center of mass from a STL file. Do someone know if it is possible and how?

Thanks a lot Pierrick

Hi,

I did not find out how to run meshlab from matlab in order to compute the geoetrical data, but i find that somebody allready implement something that do the work directly in matlab. I just used the script that compute the geometrical value.
