We consider the task of visually estimating the pose of a human from images acquired by a nearby nano-drone; in this context, we propose a data augmentation approach based on synthetic background substitution to learn a lightweight CNN model from a small real-world training set. Experimental results on data from two different labs proves that the approach improves generalization to unseen environments.
