Abstract :
Video based 3D reconstruction of human motion plays an important role in many applications. We implement a system that robustly reconstructs 3D human motion from markerless videos taken by a single camera. Our system only requires a desktop PC and a mainstream camera, and doesn´t involve complex camera calibration, making it easy to implement and widely accessible in daily uses such as human computer interaction or entertainment.
