Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and programs are presented for simultaneous recognition of objects within a detection space utilizing three-dimensional (3D) cameras configured for capturing 3D images of the detection space. One system includes the 3D cameras, calibrated based on a pattern in a surface of the detection space, a memory, and a processor. The processor combines data of the 3D images to obtain pixel data and removes, from the pixel data, background pixels of the detection space to obtain object pixel data associated with objects in the detection space. Further, the processor creates a geometric model of the object pixel data, the geometric model including surface information of the objects in the detection space, generates one or more cuts in the geometric model to separate objects and obtain respective object geometric models, and performs object recognition to identify each object in the detection space based on the respective object geometric models.
