ANIMATION MOTION CAPTURE USING THREE-DIMENSIONAL SCANNER DATA

摘要

Systems and techniques are provided for performing animation motion capture of objects within an environment. For example, a method may include obtaining input data including a three-dimensional point cloud of the environment. The three-dimensional point cloud is generated using a three-dimensional laser scanner including multiple laser emitters and multiple laser receivers. The method may further include obtaining an animation model for an object within the environment. The animation model includes a mesh, an animation skeleton rig, and adjustable controls that control the animation skeleton rig to define a position of one or more faces of the mesh. The method may further include determining a pose of the object within the environment. Determining a pose includes fitting the one or more faces of the mesh to one or more points of a portion of the three-dimensional point cloud. The portion of the three-dimensional point cloud corresponds to the object in the environment. The fitting includes reducing errors between the one or more faces and the one or more corresponding points using the adjustable controls.
