Thanks a lot,

Just average all the coordinates. For example, if you have a vector containing x coordinates and a vector containing y coordinates, you can find it in the following manner.
x = rand(3,1); % x-coordinate
y = rand(3,1); % y-coordinate
x_centroid = mean(x);
y_centroid = mean(y);

hi, have you get the code that can find the barycenter of 3d (stl,ply)?
