Abstract:
The invention is related to a method of determining a similarity transformation between first coordinates and second coordinates of 3D features, comprising providing a first plurality of 3D features having first coordinates in a first coordinate system which is associated with a first geometrical model of a first real object, wherein the first plurality of 3D features describes physical 3D features of the first real object, providing a second coordinate system, providing image information associated with a plurality of images captured by at least one camera, for each respective 3D feature of at least part of the first plurality of 3D features, wherein the respective 3D feature is captured by at least two of the plurality of images, determining camera poses of the at least one camera in the second coordinate system while the at least two of the plurality of images are captured, determining for the respective 3D feature a second coordinate in the second coordinate system according to the at least two of the plurality of images and the camera poses, and the method further comprising determining a similarity transformation between the first coordinates and the second coordinates of the at least part of the first plurality of 3D features, wherein the similarity transformation includes at least one translation, at least one rotation, at least one scale and/or their combinations in 3D space.
