Researchers have introduced DLTPose, a new method for estimating the 6DoF pose of objects from RGBD images. This approach combines the precision of sparse keypoint methods with the robustness of dense pixel-wise predictions. DLTPose generates per-pixel radial distances to keypoints, which are then used in a novel Direct Linear Transform formulation to achieve accurate 3D object surface estimates. The method also incorporates a unique symmetry-aware keypoint ordering technique to better handle symmetric objects, outperforming existing methods on benchmark datasets like LINEMOD and YCB-Video.
