Abstract
A computer-implemented method which may be used with imaging systems is provided. The method may include receiving a first image from a first device configured to generate the first image based upon, at least in part, a first portion of an item. The method may further include receiving a second image from a second device configured to generate the second image based upon, at least in part, a second portion of the item. The method may also include extracting one or more features from the first image and the second image in a multi-view calibration space wherein the one or more features share a global coordinate system. The method may further include applying a global constraints embedded Hough transform to the one or more features present in the first image and the second image.
