Abstract
A system and method for obtaining a 3D pose of an object using 2D images from multiple 2D cameras. The method includes positioning a first 2D camera so that it is directed towards the object along a first optical axis, obtaining 2D images of the object by the first 2D camera, and extracting feature points from the 2D images from the first 2D camera using a first feature extraction process. The method also includes positioning a second 2D camera so that it is directed towards the object along a second optical axis, obtaining 2D images of the object by the second 2D camera, and extracting feature points from the 2D images from the second 2D camera using a second feature extraction process. The method then estimates the 3D pose of the object using the extracted feature points from both of the first and second feature extraction process.
