چکیده

In order to overcome typical problems in markerless motion capture from video, such as ambiguities, noise, and occlusions, many techniques reduce the high dimensional search space by integration of prior information about the movement pattern or scene. In this work, we present an approach in which geometric prior information about the floor location is integrated in the pose tracking process. We penalize poses in which body parts intersect the ground plane by employing soft constraints in the pose estimation framework. Experiments with rigid objects and the HumanEVA-II benchmark show that tracking is remarkably stabilized.

Feasibility of a single camera markerless motion capture system to accurately measure flexion-extension

INTRODUCTION Traditional motion capture techniques use markers to measure movement. However, markers are prone to soft tissue artifact and experimental error [1] as well as possible impedance to natural motion. Another significant challenge is the ability to use optical motion capture systems in a variety of natural setting such as a patient’s home, on the sports field, or in public. This has l...

Real-time and Markerless Full-Body Human Motion Capture

We propose an efficient real-time method for markerless 3D human motion capture that requires a single computer. Using input from at least three calibrated webcams, an extended ”Shape from Silhouette” algorithm reconstructs the filmed person in real-time. Fasts 3D shape and 3D skin parts analysis provide a robust and real-time system for human full-body tracking. Animation skeleton and simple m...

Accuracy and repeatability of joint angles measured using a single camera markerless motion capture system.

Markerless motion capture systems have developed in an effort to evaluate human movement in a natural setting. However, the accuracy and reliability of these systems remain understudied. Therefore, the goals of this study were to quantify the accuracy and repeatability of joint angles using a single camera markerless motion capture system and to compare the markerless system performance with th...
