A system and a method are disclosed where an autonomous robot captures an image of an object to be transported from a source to a destination. The robot generates a bounding box within the image surrounding the object. The robot applies a machine-learned model to the image with the bounding box, the machine-learned model configured to identify an object type of the object, and to identify features of the object based on the identified object type and the image. The robot determines which of the identified features of the object are visible to the autonomous robot, and determines a three-dimensional pose of the object based on the features determined to be visible to the autonomous robot.
