Abstract

Briefly described, one embodiment determines pose of an object of interest at a run time by capturing a first image of a first structured light pattern projected onto a first local surface of the object of interest; determining a first run-time data set from the captured first image, wherein the first run-time data set corresponds to information determined from the first structured light pattern projected onto the first local surface; comparing the determined first run-time data set and a corresponding first reference data set, the first reference data set corresponding to an ideal pose of the first local surface on an ideally posed reference object; and determining at least one first degree of constraint that defines a first partial pose of the first local surface, the at least one first degree of constraint based upon the comparison of the first run-time data set with the corresponding first reference data set.
