# A 3-D Recognition and Positioning Algorithm Using Geometrical Matching Between Primitive Surfaces

## Abstract

In this paper, we describe an efficient algorithm for 3-0 scene analysis. This algorithm uses a segmentation of the surfaces to be identified into geometrical primitives, the original dat a being obtained Dy a laser range finder. Moreover, the algorithm estimates precisely the location and or i entation of an identified object ofthe scene. Results are presented on real objects.
