Reducing object tracking noise with pose smoothing

Abstract

Examples in the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for reducing noise in object tracking data. Images of an object are obtained via one or more cameras. The images are processed to obtain first pose data indicative of a pose of the object over time. The first pose data is represented in a camera space. The first pose data is transformed to second pose data represented in a world space. The second pose data is filtered using a smoothing filter to generate filtered pose data. The filtering includes, for each pose data item in a time series of the second pose data, using a rotation transformation between the world space and camera space to apply one or more camera space-specific filter parameters to the pose data item that is represented in the world space. The pose of the object is dynamically tracked based on the filtered pose data.
