.. code:: python

   import read_aconity_layers as ral
   import numpy as np

   # Read all layers from a directory
   data = ral.read_layers("/path/to/layer/files/")

   # Read specific layer files
   files = ["/path/to/0.01.pcd", "/path/to/0.02.pcd"]
   data = ral.read_selected_layers(files)

   # Read a single layer
   layer = ral.read_layer("/path/to/0.01.pcd")
