For example, the computing device can determine subsets of the mesh sequences based on a similarity criterion. The computing device can determine modified first and second meshes having a connectivity corresponding to a reference mesh. The computing device can then determine the synthetic meshes based on the modified first and second meshes. In some examples, the computing device can project source and target textures onto the synthetic mesh to provide projected source and target textures. The computing device can determine a synthetic texture registered to the synthetic mesh based on the projected source and target textures.

Robotic vision

A method includes accessing RGB and depth image data representing a scene that includes at least a portion of a robotic limb. Using this data, a computing system may segment the image data to isolate and identify at least a portion of the robotic limb within the scene. The computing system can determine a current pose of the robotic limb within the scene based on the image data, joint data, or a 3D virtual model of the robotic limb. The computing system may then determine a desired goal pose, which may be based on the image data or the 3D virtual model. Based on the determined goal pose, the computing device determines the difference between the current pose and the goal pose of the robotic limb, and using this difference, provides a pose adjustment that for the robotic limb.
