Abstract

A method for detecting objects in an environment includes obtaining, from one or more sensors, distance measurements from the one or more sensors to portions of the environment, generating a representation of a three-dimensional space using the distance measurements, identifying object features in the representation of the three-dimensional space using a neural network, comparing the object features to pre-defined three-dimensional templates to generate scores that represent correspondence of the object features to the pre-defined three-dimensional templates, and determining a location and a rotational orientation for a three-dimensional object based on the scores.
