Abstract:
Example implementations relate to determining depth information using stereo sensor data. An example system may include at least one projector coupled to a robotic manipulator and configured to project a texture pattern onto an environment. The system may further include a displacer coupled to the at least one texture projector and configured to repeatedly change a position of the texture pattern within the environment. The system may also include at least two optical sensors configured to capture stereo sensor data for the environment. And the system may include a computing device configured to determine, using the stereo sensor data, an output including a virtual representation of the environment.
