Abstract

A system includes one or more processors configured to create a projection matrix based on a three-dimensional (3D) model of a part and sensor data associated with a workpiece in a workspace of a robotic manipulator. The projection matrix provides a mapping between sensor coordinates associated with the sensor data and 3D coordinates associated with the 3D model. The one or more processors are configured to identify a set of sensor coordinates from the sensor data corresponding to a feature indication associated with the workpiece, and to determine from the set of sensor coordinates a set of 3D coordinates using the projection matrix.
