1. A method for detecting and localizing an object, comprising steps:
- acquiring a frame of a three-dimensional (3D) scene with a sensor;
extracting features from the frame;
segmenting the frame into segments, wherein each segment includes one or more features, and for each segment comprising;
searching an object map for a similar segment, and only if there is a similar segment in the object map, registering the segment in the frame with the similar segment to obtain a predicted pose of the object;
combining the predicted poses to obtain the pose of the object; and
outputting the pose, wherein the steps are performed in a processor.

Abstract
A method and system detects and localizes an object by first acquiring a frame of a three-dimensional (3D) scene with a sensor, and extracting features from the frame. The frame are segmented into segments, wherein each segment includes one or more features, and for each segment, searching an object map for a similar segment, and only if there is a similar segment in the object map, registering the segment in the frame with the similar segment to obtain a predicted pose of the object. The predicted poses are combined to obtain the pose of the object, which can be outputted.

15. A system for detecting, and localizing an object, comprising:
-
a sensor configured to acquire a frame of a three-dimensional (3D) scene; and a processor, connected to the sensor, configured to extract features from the frame, to segment the frame into segments, wherein each segment includes one or more features, and for each segment, searching an object map for a similar segment, and only if there is a similar segment in the object map, registering the segment in the frame with the similar segment to obtain a predicted pose of the object, to combine the predicted poses to obtain the pose of the object, and to output the pose.
