Abstract

Systems and methods for performing point cloud registration are described herein. In one example, a system includes a processor and a memory having instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to iterate through translation candidates and rotation candidates to determine a rigid transformation that best aligns a first point cloud and a second point cloud. Once determined, the processor may utilize the rigid translation to control the movement of a robotic device, such as a robotic arm, vehicle, etc.
