Abstract: A system may comprise a transport device for moving at least one object, wherein at least one substantially planar surface of the object is moved in a known plane locally around a viewing area, wherein the substantially planar surface of the object is occluded except when the at least one substantially planar surface passes by the viewing area, at least one 2D digital optical sensor configured to capture at least two sequential 2D digital images of the at least one substantially planar surface of the at least one object that is moved in the known plane around the viewing area, and a controller operatively coupled to the 2D digital optical sensor, the controller performing the steps of: a) receiving a first digital image, b) receiving a second digital image, and c) stitching the first digital image and the second digital image using a stitching algorithm to generate a stitched image.

Abstract: A method for assigning a symbol to an object in an image includes receiving the image captured by an imaging device where the symbol may be located within the image. The method further includes receiving, in a first coordinate system, a three-dimensional (3D) location of one or more points that corresponds to pose information indicative of a 3D pose of the object in the image, mapping the 3D location of the one or more points of the object to a 2D location within the image, and assigning the symbol to the object based on a relationship between a 2D location of the symbol in the image and the 2D location of the one or more points of the object in the image.

Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments of the disclosed subject matter, methods, systems, and media for generating images of multiple sides of an object are provided. In some embodiments, a method comprises receiving information indicative of a 3D pose of a first object in a first coordinate space at a first time; receiving a group of images captured using at least one image sensor, each image associated with a field of view within the first coordinate space; mapping at least a portion of a surface of the first object to a 2D area with respect to the image based on the 3D pose of the first object; associating, for images including the surface, a portion of that image with the surface of the first object based on the 2D area; and generating a composite image of the surface using images associated with the surface.
