Abstract
A system and method for operating a robotic system to register unrecognized objects is disclosed. The robotic system may use first image data representative of an unrecognized object to derive an initial minimum viable region (MVR). The robotic system may analyze second image data representative of the unrecognized object to detect a condition representative of an accuracy of the initial MVR. The robotic system may register the initial MVR or an adjustment thereof based on the detected condition.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- obtaining first image data representative of one or more surfaces of an object;
- obtaining second image data representing the object after an initial displacement of the object away from adjacent objects;
- identifying edges of the object based on the first image data and the second image data;
- and
- determining whether the object is recognizable based on the identified edges.
A robotic system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory device connected to the at least one processor and having stored thereon instructions executable by the processor for:
- obtaining first image data representative of one or more surfaces of an object;
- obtaining second image data representing the object after an initial displacement of the object away from adjacent objects;
- identifying edges of the object based on the first image data and the second image data;
- and
- determining whether the object is recognizable based on the identified edges.
A tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium having processor instructions stored thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform a method, the method comprising:
- obtaining first image data representative of one or more surfaces of an object;
- obtaining second image data representing the object after an initial displacement of the object away from adjacent objects;
- identifying edges of the object based on the first image data and the second image data;
- and
- determining whether the object is recognizable based on the identified edges.
