Abstract

This paper introduces a methodology for precise object orientation determination using Principal Component Analysis, with robust performance under significant noise conditions. It validates the potential to mitigate the challenges associated with Axis-Aligned Bounding Boxes in smart manufacturing environments. The proposed approach paves the way for improved alignment in robotic grasping tasks, positioning it as a computationally efficient alternative to ML methods employing Oriented Bounding Boxes. The methodology demonstrated a maximum angle deviation of 3.5 degrees under severe noise conditions through testing with bolts in orientations of 0 to 180 degrees.
