Training from captured 3D models

If you don't have a 3D mesh of the object, you can also create one by capturing the 3D point cloud data and reconstructing the mesh. Here are the steps to capture and build the mesh of an object:

  1. Before the capture, we have to print a pattern for better capturing and reconstruction. You can download the pattern from http://wg-perception.github.io/capture/_downloads/capture_board_big_5x3.svg.pdf.

  1. Print the pattern, stick it to some hard board, and place it on a rotating mechanism that you can manually rotate the board along an axis. The object has to be placed at ...
