System and Method for Determining an Orientation and Position of an Object
First Claim
1. A system for determining an orientation and position of an object, the system comprising:
- a computation device, comprising;
an input module adapted to receive data defining a two dimensional image;
an image analyzing module configured to receive the data and analyze the two dimensional image to determine a two dimensional orientation representative of a three dimensional orientation and position;
a position calculating module configured to receive the two dimensional orientation from the image analyzing module and determine the three dimensional orientation and position of the object; and
an output module adapted to send information relating to the three dimensional orientation and position of the object.

Abstract
A system for determining an orientation and position of an object can include a computation device having an input module adapted to receive data defining a two dimensional image, an image analyzing module configured to receive the data and analyze the two dimensional image to determine a two dimensional orientation representative of a three dimensional orientation and position, a position calculating module configured to receive the two dimensional orientation from the image analyzing module and determine the three dimensional orientation and position of the object, and an output module adapted to send information relating to the three dimensional orientation and position of the object. A method for determining an orientation and position of an object is also disclosed.
