Abstract
Methods, systems and apparatus for segmenting objects are provided. A controller: receives, from one or more sensors, a 3D representation of a scene that includes an object represented by a 3D model; determines an orientation of a 2D image in the 3D representation by matching the 2D image with a corresponding region of the 3D representation; determines a first portion of the 3D representation that corresponds to a subset of the 3D model of the object from: the orientation of the 2D image in the 3D representation; and predetermined matching data representative of a matching of the 2D image with a respective corresponding region of the 3D model, each of the 3D model, the 2D image, and the predetermined matching data stored in a memory accessible to the controller; segments the first portion of the 3D representation from a second portion of the 3D representation.
