3D HUMAN MODEL ACQUISITION FROM UNCALIBRATED MONOCULAR VIDEO

Abstract

This paper presents a novel method to reconstruct 3D body surface model of human figure from 2D uncalibrated monocular video. Unlike other works on body reconstruction from monocular video where either the source video are strictly selected or the skeleton proportions are assumed available beforehand, the proposed system automatically recovers the skeleton proportions and rebuild the 3D human body shape in NURBS format without pose estimation.
