Procrustes problem

Hi,
The Lab project requires the estimation of a rigid body transformation X'=RX+T in order to align two sets of 3D points.
Since this topic is not discussed in the lectures (other least squares problems are, such as: camera calibration and homography estimation) I suggest you take a look at the paper:

D.W. Eggert, A. Lorusso, R.B. Fisher, Estimating 3-D rigid body transformations: a comparison of four major algorithms, Machine Vision Applications, 1997

and read algorithm 1 proposed by Arun et al. 1987.

See you soon,
Jorge Marques
