Abstract

Various embodiments of the present technology generally relate to robotic devices, computer-vision systems, and artificial intelligence. More specifically, some embodiments relate to a computer-vision system for robotic devices. In some implementations, a computer-vision is coupled to a robotic arm for picking items from a bin and perturbing items in a bin. A computer-vision system, in accordance with the present technology, may use at least two two-dimensional (2D) images to generate three-dimensional (3D) information about the bin and items in the bin. A method of training artificial neural networks to generate 3D information from 2D images includes obtaining ground truth data for a scene, obtaining at least two images of the scene, and providing the ground truth data and the at least two images to the artificial neural network configured to generate a depth map from the images based on the ground truth data.
