Abstract
A method includes acquiring, from a camera, an image data sequence of a real object in a real scene and performing a first template-matching on an image frame in the image data sequence using intensity-related data sets stored in one or more memories to generate response maps. The intensity-related data sets represent an intensity distribution of a reference object from respective viewpoints. The reference object corresponds to the real object. A candidate region of interest is determined for the real object in the image frame based on the response maps, and second template-matching is performed on the candidate region of interest using shape-related feature data sets stored in one or more memories to derive a pose of the real object. The shape-related feature data sets represent edge information of the reference object from the respective viewpoints.
