Edge-supported Surface-based 3D-Matching with MVTec HALCON

In this tutorial, you will learn how to extend the functionality of surface-based matching with MVTec HALCON by also using edges of objects in the 3D scene. 

Using the procedure debug_find_surface_model, we will optimize the used parameters and check the matching result.

Optimize your 3D Data for Surface-based 3D-Matching with MVTec HALCON

In this tutorial, you will learn how to optimize your surface-based matching results with MVTec HALCON by properly preparing the 3D input data. 

By working with 2D XYZ-mappings, we can optimize the matching process robustly and fast. For example, removing the background of a 3D scene often can both speed up the matching and help avoiding false matches. 

Additionally, we take a quick look at additional options like defining symmetries or restrict the range of rotations of searched matches.
