    Abstract: A system and method for performing automatic camera calibration is presented. The system communicates with a first camera and a second camera, wherein a transparent platform is disposed between the two cameras. When a 3D calibration pattern is disposed on the platform, the system receives a first set of calibration images from the first camera, and a second set of calibration images from the second camera. The system determines, based on the first set of calibration images, a first set of coordinates for corners of the polyhedron. The system further determines, based on the second set of calibration images, a second set of coordinates for the corners. The system determines, based on the coordinates, a spatial relationship between the first camera and the second camera. The system further uses a description of the spatial relationship to generate a 3D model of an object other than the 3D calibration pattern.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for processing spatial structure data are provided. The system accesses spatial structure data, which describes object structure, and which has depth information indicative of a plurality of layers for the object structure. The system further extracts, from the spatial structure data, a portion of the spatial structure data representative of one layer of the plurality of layers. The system identifies, from the portion of the spatial structure data, a plurality of vertices that describe a contour of the layer. Additionally, the system identifies convex corners of the layer based on the plurality of vertices and performs object recognition according to the convex corners.

    Abstract: A robot control system and a method for automatic camera calibration is presented. The robot control system includes a control circuit configured to determine all corner locations of an imaginary cube that fits within a camera field of view, and determine a plurality of locations that are distributed on or throughout the imaginary cube. The control circuit is further configured to control a robot arm to move a calibration pattern to the plurality of locations, and to receive a plurality of calibration images corresponding to the plurality of locations, and to determine respective estimates of intrinsic camera parameters based on the plurality of calibration images, and to determine an estimate of a transformation function that describes a relationship between a camera coordinate system and a world coordinate system. The control circuit is further configured to control placement of the robot arm based on the estimate of the transformation function.

    Abstract: A system and method for performing object detection are presented. The system receives spatial structure information associated with an object which is or has been in a camera field of view of a spatial structure sensing camera. The spatial structure information is generated by the spatial structure sensing camera, and includes depth information for an environment in the camera field of view. The system determines a container pose based on the spatial structure information, wherein the container pose is for describing at least one of an orientation for the container or a depth value for at least a portion of the container. The system further determines an object pose based on the container pose, wherein the object pose is for describing at least one of an orientation for the object or a depth value for at least a portion of the object.

    Abstract: A computing system and a method for calibration verification is presented. The computing system is configured to perform a first calibration operation, and to control a robot arm to move a verification symbol to a reference location. The robot control system further receives, from a camera, a reference image of the verification symbol, and determines a reference image coordinate for the verification symbol. The robot control system further controls the robot arm to move the verification symbol to the reference location again during an idle period, receives an additional image of the verification symbol, and determines a verification image coordinate. The robot control system determines a deviation parameter value based the reference image coordinate and the verification image coordinate, and whether the deviation parameter value exceeds a defined threshold, and performs a second calibration operation if the threshold is exceeded.
