Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An object recognition method, a descriptor generating method for object recognition, and a descriptor for object recognition capable of extracting feature points using the position relationship and color information relationship between points in a group that are sampled from an image of an object, and capable of recognizing the object using the feature points, the object recognition method including extracting feature components of a point cloud using the position information and the color information of the points that compose the point cloud of the three-dimensional (3D) image of an object, generating a descriptor configured to recognize the object using the extracted feature components; and performing the object recognition based on the descriptor.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of recognizing an object, the method comprising: extracting a feature component of a point cloud of a three-dimensional (3D) image of the object by using position information and color information of points that form the point cloud; generating a descriptor configured to recognize the object using the extracted feature component; and recognizing the object based on the generated descriptor, wherein the descriptor comprises: a first feature co…
