Abstract
A system and method for three-dimensional (3D) object detection is disclosed. A particular embodiment can be configured to: receive image data from at least one camera associated with an autonomous vehicle, the image data representing at least one image frame; use a trained deep learning module to determine pixel coordinates of a two-dimensional (2D) bounding box around an object detected in the image frame; use the trained deep learning module to determine vertices of a three-dimensional (3D) bounding box around the object; use a fitting module to obtain geological information related to a particular environment associated with the image frame and to obtain camera calibration information associated with the at least one camera; and use the fitting module to determine 3D attributes of the object using the 3D bounding box, the geological information, and the camera calibration information.
