Abstract
The present embodiments relate to automatically estimating a three-dimensional pose of an object from an image captured using a camera with a structured light sensor. By way of introduction, the present embodiments described below include apparatuses and methods for training a system for and estimating a pose of an object from a test image. Training and test images are sampled to generate local image patches. Features are extracted from the local image patches to generate feature databased used to estimate nearest neighbor poses for each local image patch. The closest nearest neighbor pose to the test image is selected as the estimated three-dimensional pose.
