+The algorithm makes use of the fact that at least one edge of
+the convex hull must be collinear with an edge of the minimum
+bounding box: for each triangle in the convex hull, calculate
+the minimal axis aligned box in the frame of that triangle.
+at the end, return the box with the smallest volume
+
+Args:
+     points (open3d.utility.Vector3dVector): Input points.
+     robust (bool): If set to true uses a more robust method which works in
+          degenerate cases but introduces noise to the points coordinates.
+
+Returns:
+     open3d.geometry.OrientedBoundingBox: The oriented bounding box. The
+     bounding box is oriented such that its volume is minimized.
