BodySLAM++: Fast and Tightly-Coupled Visual-Inertial Camera and Human Motion Tracking
Robust, fast, and accurate human state - 6D pose and posture - estimation remains a challenging problem. For real-world applications, the ability to estimate the human state in real-time is highly desirable. In this paper, we present BodySLAM++, a fast, efficient, and accurate human and camera state estimation framework relying on visual-inertial data. BodySLAM++ extends an existing visual-inertial state estimation framework, OKVIS2, to solve the dual task of estimating camera and human states simultaneously. Our system improves the accuracy of both human and camera state estimation with respect to baseline methods by 26 frames per second on an Intel i7-model CPU. Experiments were conducted on a custom dataset containing both ground truth human and camera poses collected with an indoor motion tracking system.
