Abstract:

A system may comprise a processor and a memory having computer readable instructions stored thereon. The computer readable instructions, when executed by the processor, may cause the system to record shape data from a shape sensor for an instrument during an image capture period and generate a sensor point cloud from the recorded shape data. The computer readable instructions, when executed by the processor, may also cause the system to receive image data from an imaging system during the image capture period, generate an image point cloud for the instrument from the image data, and register the sensor point cloud to the image point cloud.
