What is 3D object pose estimation?

3D pose estimation is a process of predicting the transformation of an object from a user-defined reference pose, given an image or a 3D scan.

What is 6D pose estimation?

6D pose estimation is the task of detecting the 6D pose of an object, which include its location and orientation. This is an important task in robotics, where a robotic arm needs to know the location and orientation to detect and move objects in its vicinity successfully.

Is pose estimation computer vision?

Pose estimation is a computer vision task that enables machines to detect human figures and understand their body pose in videos and images. It helps machines determine, for example, where the human knee is located in an image.

What is VideoPose3D?

VideoPose3D was the state-of-art model which utilizes “a fully convolutional model based on dilated temporal convolutions over 2D key points” [11].
