چکیده

Motion detection is an essential block of multiple systems. There are usually some constrains related to the motion of the camera, or the type of scene. This work proposes a framework to detect and classify multiple moving objects in an 3D space using the Microsoft Kinect camera without any motion constraint. To solve the detection problem, a 3D alignment step is carried out using the Iterative Closest Point(ICP) algorithm followed by multiple 2D frame-difference techniques, ending up with the construction of 3D clusters containing the moving objects. Two types of entities were considered on this work people and balls. To classify people, a classification algorithm relying on Histograms of Oriented Gradients(HOG) is built. A Random Sample Consensus(RANSAC) model is used to find balls. The proposed solution was tested in realistic indoor scenes.

Motion and Synchronization Analysis of Musical Ensembles with the Kinect

Music ensembles have to synchronize their performances with highest precision in order to achieve the desired musical results. For that purpose the musicians do not only rely on their auditory perception but also perceive and interpret the movements and gestures of their ensemble colleges. In this paper we present a method for motion analysis of musical ensembles based on head tracking with a K...

Annotation Facilities for the Reliable Analysis of Human Motion

Human motion is challenging to analyze due to the many degrees of freedom of the human body. While the qualitative analysis of human motion lies at the core of many research fields, including multimodal communication, it is still hard to achieve reliable results when human coders transcribe motion with abstract categories. In this paper we tackle this problem in two respects. First, we provide ...
