3D pose estimation is the problem of determining the transformation of an object in a 2D image which gives the 3D object. One of the requirements of 3D pose estimation arises from the limitations of feature-based pose estimation. There exist environments where it is difficult to extract corners or edges from an image. To circumvent these issues, the object is dealt with as a whole in noted techniques through the use of free-form contours.
