Abstract
The techniques described herein relate to methods, apparatus, and computer readable media configured to determine an estimated volume of an object captured by a three-dimensional (3D) point cloud. A 3D point cloud comprising a plurality of 3D points and a reference plane in spatial relation to the 3D point cloud is received. A 2D grid of bins is configured along the reference plane, wherein each bin of the 2D grid comprises a length and width that extends along the reference plane. For each bin of the 2D grid, a number of 3D points in the bin and a height of the bin from the reference plane is determined. An estimated volume of an object captured by the 3D point cloud based on the calculated number of 3D points in each bin and the height of each bin.
