Method and system for RFID-assisted imaging
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- acquiring imaging data of a scene using an imaging tool, wherein an object is depicted within the scene;
processing the imaging data to create a three-dimensional representation of the scene, including a three-dimensional representation of the object;
extracting radio frequency identification (RFID) data stored in an RFID tag associated with the scene, wherein the RFID data comprises information that indicates what the object depicted within the scene is; and
associating the RFID data with the imaging data to identify a position of the object within the three-dimensional representation of the scene.
