Do you have any suggestions for approximating 3D shapes? I've looked into PCL as well, but it didn't seem like it could create a 3D representation.

Sorry, added code for reference.

I've been modifying squares.py to be able to detect contours of 3D objects. My goal is for it to extract the shapes of 3D objects (i.e. get the squares of a cube). However, whenever I run my code on the image below, drawing the contours gives me a hexagon and a green Y. Is there any way to modify this so that for each contour, I get the polygon of a square/ shape? Thanks!
