Jonathan,
There isn't really anything specifically in PDAL to be able to do this,
but I have made some recent additions to the PDAL Python extension that
should make it possible for you to prototype and develop these kinds of
things yourself in that environment.
The PDAL 1.8.0 release (coming in September) will include the following
Python enhancements:
* Python extension will be able to pass numpy arrays to invoke in PDAL
pipelines for execution
* Python extension advertises PDAL's dimension types
https://pdal.io/dimensions.html
* Python readers.numpy can programmatically take in a reference to a
numpy array
