For extended tasks such as AR and robotics, 3D understanding is needed to learn human skills. A new dataset called Indoor 3D Egocentric Object (IDEO) was created to address the shortcomings of existing datasets. Part of this dataset includes annotated 9-DOF pose of objects being manipulated by hand, which introduces nontrivial characteristic occlusion and uncommon object poses. A novel annotation tool was created to streamline the annotation process allowing for fast and accurate annotation by untrained crowd workers for the 9-DOF pose (translation, rotation, scale) of objects being manipulated by hand in egocentric images.enThesis or Dissertation
