Summary
This work presents an approach for 3D human pose tracking, animation and evaluation. The tracking of the full body is done using a modified particle swarm optimization and two synchronized cameras. On the basis of the 3D pose estimates we generate animated human motion. The animated images are processed in the same way as videos taken from the CCD cameras. This way we obtained ground-truth and utilized it in evaluations of the motion tracker.
