[question] Output 3D coordinates available about openpose HOT 4 CLOSED

Actually, I wanted to extend it to a 3D domain for my master's thesis. If someone is willing to help me on doing it, he/she's more than welcome! :D

Thanks!

Do you mean with 1 or >1 cameras?

With >1 cameras, you can create your own stereo system and apply some basic 3-D keypoint reconstruction method.

With only 1 camera, it would require much more effort and it is not in our plans in short-medium future.

Let me know any further question.

As a side note, the OpenPose output is 2D: (x,y,score). Deeper explanation here:

So clearly you focus on framework itself and such as 3D processing must be additionally implemented, fine. Thx for clear answer on my not-clear question :-)

stereo or cross or multi camera systems are clear to me. When it comes to single one, I believe with some preconfigured "natural human movement limitation matrix" it should be possible to generate 3D, of course probably not that accurate, but still to some acceptable degree.

Thanks again!

Exactly, we still have a long way to improve the framework itself as much as we want before thinking in extensions.

But any extension is welcome to the library after a few control verification steps!

Thanks
