…object recognition and precise robot navigation. For instance, structured light 3D scanners are very popular, as they can provide submillimeter resolution and high accuracy. However, they have a major limitation—they can be used only for scanning static scenes. If the sensor or the scene moves during the scanning process, the 3D scan will be distorted. This means that if one…
