The present teaching relates to method, system, medium, and implementations for trailer pose estimation. At least a dimension of a trailer connected to a vehicle is obtained where the vehicle and the trailer have respective opposing surfaces facing one another. A first set of feature points is identified from a first image of a target present on one the opposing surfaces acquired at a first time instant by a sensor deployed on the other the opposing surfaces. A second set of corresponding feature points is identified from a second image of the target acquired at a subsequent time instant by the sensor. Based on the first and second sets of feature points, a first transformation is determined and used to compute a second transformation that the trailer undergoes from the first to the second time instants. A pose of the trailer at the second time instant is estimated based on the second transformation and the dimension.
