Abstract

Image color data for a field of view is received. Thereafter, color segmentation can be performed on the image color data to define at least one bounding polygon that minimizes an amount of free space within each bounding polygon. The at least one bounding polygon is then used to crop the image color data to result in cropped image color data. Image processing can then be applied to the cropped image color data to identify at least one object therein. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
