Abstract
Image and range data associated with an image can be processed to estimate planes within the 3D environment in the image. By utilizing image segmentation techniques, image data can identify regions of visible pixels having common features. These regions can be used to candidate regions for fitting planes to the range data based on a RANSAC technique.
