Abstract
An example computing device includes: a three-dimensional (3D) sensor configured to capture point cloud data from a field of view; an auxiliary sensor configured to capture a reference depth measurement corresponding to a surface within the field of view; a processor interconnected with the 3D sensor and the auxiliary sensor, the processor configured to: control the 3D sensor and the auxiliary sensor to capture the point cloud data and the reference depth measurement; select a region of the point could data including a position of the reference depth measurement; determine a representative depth value of the region of the point cloud data to compare to the reference depth measurement; determine whether the representative depth value is within a similarity threshold to the reference depth measurement; and determine, based on whether the representative depth value is within the similarity threshold to the reference depth measurement, whether to use the point cloud data for a dimensioning operation.
