Patent attributes
A device to image registration method includes obtaining image data of a device, the device including a plurality of fiducials arranged as a fiducial frame on the device; detecting fiducial objects within the image data; cropping the image data to generate cropped image data; applying a feature enhancement to the cropped image data to enhance the fiducial objects; generating a candidate list of candidate objects based on the feature enhancement, and determining a common plane based on at least three points in the candidate list; determining a representative point for each candidate object; determining outlier candidate objects based on the common plane; determining resultant objects by extracting the outlier candidate objects from the candidate list; and registering the resultant objects to the device by matching the representative points of the resultant objects with a model of the fiducial frame.
