Accurate estimation of 3D object pose is highly desirable in a wide range of applications, such as robotics and augmented reality. Although significant advancement has been made for pose estimation, there is room for further improvement. Recent pose estimation systems utilize an iterative refinement process to revise the predicted pose to obtain a better final output. However, such refinement process only takes account of geometric features for pose revision during the iteration. Motivated by this approach, this paper designs a novel iterative refinement process that deals with both color and geometric features for object pose refinement. Experiments show that the proposed method is able to reach 94.74% and 93.2% in ADD(-S) metric with only 2 iterations, outperforming the state-of-the-art methods on the LINEMOD and YCB-Video datasets, respectively.

This paper aims to address the challenge of precise robotic grasping of molecular sieve drying bags during automated packaging by proposing a six-dimensional (6D) pose estimation method based on an red green blue-depth (RGB-D) camera. The method consists of three components: point cloud pre-segmentation, target extraction, and pose estimation. A minimum bounding box-based pre-segmentation method was designed to minimize the impact of packaging wrinkles and skirt curling.

Ingestion of foreign bodies is a prevalent issue in clinical practice, with fish bones being the predominant cause. While the upper gastrointestinal tract is commonly affected, small intestine impactions pose significant diagnostic challenges due to nonspecific symptoms and lack of awareness of foreign body ingestion. Herein, we describe a case presenting with recurrent, unexplained abdominal pain and hematochezia.

Background: Twelve bacterial families were identified as global priority pathogens by the World Health Organization in 2017, recognizing the greatest threat they pose to human health and the declining antibiotic efficacy. Robotics has emerged as a swift and contactless tool for disinfecting bacterial surface contamination in healthcare facilities, however, head-to-head comparison of disinfection efficacy of robotic versus manual disinfections is limited. This study aimed at comparing how robotic disinfection performs over manual disinfection against the global priority pathogens in the healthcare setting.

Object pose estimation is essential for computer vision applications such as quality inspection, robotic bin picking, and warehouse logistics. However, this task often requires expensive equipment such as 3D cameras or Lidar sensors, as well as significant computational resources. Many state-of-the-art methods for 6D pose estimation depend on deep neural networks, which are computationally demanding and require GPUs for real-time performance.
