Fully automatic body scanning and motion capture using two kinects

Published:19 November 2013Publication History

ABSTRACT

This paper presents a novel scanning system for capturing full 3D human body motion with two calibrated Kinects and no auxiliary equipment. The Kinect is a cheap depth scanning device, which can simultaneously measure depth and color at standard video rates (@30 frames/sec). This makes it attractive as the core sensor of a human motion scanner. We capture a human's movement sequence using two Kinects placed in the front and back, and reconstruct a consistent and hole-filled mesh animation using the depth data.
