Nodes
DepthToPoints
DepthToPoints: turns the depth layer into 3D through the camera (cam input or focal knobs): a displaced, textured card mesh (ScanlineRender can re-render it from new views) or a coloured point cloud.

Nuke equivalent
No Nuke class. In a .nk file this node is written as an Oink node that Nuke will not recognise.
