Plane detection using semantic segmentation

Abstract:

In one implementation, a method of generating a plane hypothesis is performed by a head-mounted device (HMD) including one or more processors, non-transitory memory, and a scene camera. The method includes obtaining an image of a scene including a plurality of pixels. The method include obtaining a point cloud based on the image of the scene and generating an object classification set based on the image of the scene, each element of the object classification set including a respective plurality of pixels classified as a respective object in the scene. The method includes generating a plane hypothesis based on the point cloud and the object classification set.
