Abstract
Embodiments described herein provide techniques to enable spatial sensor data from multiple devices to be fused into a single coordinate space. This fused sensor data can then be processed into a point cloud. Point cloud data can then be transformed to enable the classification of objects detected within the sensor data. Features within multiple feature spaces can be extracted from the point cloud data for use in classification. Classification of objects can also be used to correlate objects detected by multiple sensor equipped devices to determine a coordinate space transformation between those devices.
