Create a set of 3-D points.

[x1, y1, z1] = sphere(24);
x1 = x1(:);
y1 = y1(:);
z1 = z1(:);
x2 = x1+5;
P = [x1 y1 z1; x2 y1 z1];
P = unique(P,'rows');

Create and plot an alpha shape using an alpha radius of 1.5.

shp = alphaShape(P,1.5);
plot(shp)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object contains an object of type patch.

Plot the alpha shape with a specified color and transparency factor. 

plot(shp,'FaceColor','red','FaceAlpha',0.1)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object contains an object of type patch.
