A method for dynamic auto-calibration of a multi-sensor tracking system and apparatus incorporating it therein are presented. The method and apparatus utilize information from complementary sensors, filtered by a simultaneously running filter that combines the sensor data into an estimate of the state of the monitored system to iteratively tune the bias estimate. To track a dynamic system, complimentary or redundant sensors may be combined with a model of the system so that the uncertainty in the estimated state of the dynamic system is less than the noise in the individual sensors. In addition to noise, the sensors may have bias, which has the same value whenever the system is in a particular state. While estimating the actual value of the state, the present invention allows the estimator to determine the bias. The present invention, in its most general embodiment requires complex computations. However, significant simplifications have also been developed, which reduce the necessary computational power to a manageable level. The present invention has been reduced to practice in the context of a head-tracking system employing a plurality of sensors to determine the orientation of a human head.

Described is a system for object recognition in colorized point clouds. The system includes an implicit geometry engine that is configured to receive three-dimensional (3D) colorized cloud point data regarding a 3D object of interest and to convert the cloud point data into implicit representations. The engine also generates geometric features. A geometric grammar block is included to generate object cues and recognize geometric objects using geometric tokens and grammars based on object taxonomy. A visual attention cueing block is included to generate object cues based on 3D geometric properties. Finally, an object recognition block is included to perform a local search for objects using cues from the cueing block and the geometric grammar block and to classify the 3D object of interest as a particular object upon a classifier reaching a predetermined threshold.

A beacon-augmented pose estimation system includes positionable beacons that can determine their own 3-D geospatial coordinates and transmit those coordinates back to the pose object. An imaging sensor images the field-of-view of the pose object to provide 2-D image coordinates for any of the beacons in the FOV. A pose object controller processes the sets of 3-D geospatial coordinates and 2-D image coordinates to refine a pose estimate of the pose object. The positionable beacons may include both static beacons that are pre-positioned and mobile beacons that are command-guided to position themselves in the pose object's likely or actual FOV.
