Abstract
A method includes acquiring, from a camera, an image frame including a representation of an object, and retrieving from a memory, data containing a template of a first pose of the object. A processor compares the first template to the image frame. A plurality of candidate locations in the image frame having a correlation with the template exceeding a predetermined threshold is determined. Edge registration on at least one candidate location of the plurality of candidate locations is performed to derive a refined pose of the object. Based at least in part on the performed edge registration, an initial pose of the object is determined, and a display image is output for display on a display device. The position at which the display image is displayed and/or the content of the display image is based at least in part on the determined initial pose of the object.
