Object detection and orientation estimation

Abstract:

In one implementation, a method of estimating the orientation of an object in an image is performed by a device 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 at a respective plurality of pixel locations and having a respective plurality of pixel values. The method includes determining a first set of pixels locations corresponding to a 2D boundary surrounding an object represented in the image and determining, based on the first set of pixel locations, a second set of pixel locations corresponding to a 3D boundary surrounding the object.
