Abstract

With the rapid development of deep learning technology and other powerful tools, 3D object detection has made great progress and become one of the fastest growing field in computer vision. Many automated applications such as robotic navigation, autonomous driving, and virtual or augmented reality system require estimation of accurate 3D object location and detection. Under this requirement, many methods have been proposed to improve the performance of 3D object localization and detection. Despite recent efforts, 3D object detection is still a very challenging task due to occlusion, viewpoint variations, scale changes, and limited information in 3D scenes. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of recent state-of-the-art approaches in 3D object detection technology. We start with some basic concepts, then describe some of the available datasets that are designed to facilitate the performance evaluation of 3D object detection algorithms. Next, we will review the state-of-the-art technologies in this area, highlighting their contributions, importance, and limitations as a guide for future research. Finally, we provide a quantitative comparison of the results of the state-of-the-art methods on the popular public datasets.
