Abstract

A scale and pose estimation method for a camera system is disclosed. Camera data for a scene acquired by the camera system is received. A scale prior parameter characterizing scale of the camera system is received. A cost of a cost function is calculated for a similarity transformation. The cost of the cost function is influenced at least by the scale prior parameter. Based at least on the cost function being less than a threshold cost, an estimated scale and pose of the camera system is output based on the similarity transformation.
