A REAL-TIME BODY TRACKING SYSTEM FOR SMART ROOMS

Marcel Alcoverro, Adolfo López Méndez, Montse Pardàs, Josep Casas


Abstract

We present a real-time human body tracking system for a single user in a Smart Room scenario. In this paper we propose a novel system that involves a silhouette-based cost function using variable windows, a hierarchical optimization method, parallel implementations of pixel-based algorithms and efficient usage of a low-cost hardware structure. Results in a Smart Room setup are presented.
