Abstract
A system for determining positional information of a camera, includes: a plane determination module configured to determine a first plane and a second plane based on a depth image; a plane-association module configured to associate the first plane determined by the plane determination module with a first tool-plane, and to associate the second plane determined by the plane determination module with a second tool-plane, the first and second tool-planes having known positional relationship with respect to each other; and a positional determination unit configured to determine the positional information of the camera based on an output from the plane-association module.
