Abstract
A computing device for dimensioning an object includes: a dimensioning subsystem configured to execute a default dimensioning method and a backup dimensioning method; a memory storing quality evaluation rules; a processor connected with the dimensioning subsystem and the memory, the processor configured to: control the dimensioning subsystem to execute a default dimensioning method to obtain default dimensioning data; compare a quality metric for the default dimensioning data to a threshold condition defined in the quality evaluation rules; when the quality metric exceeds the threshold condition, compute dimensions of the object based on the default dimensioning data; and when the quality metric does not exceed the threshold condition, control the dimensioning subsystem to execute the backup dimensioning method to obtain backup dimensioning data and compute the dimensions of the object based on the backup dimensioning data.
