  • Publication number: 20230306640
    Abstract: A method of 3D motion reconstruction of outdoor, highly flexible moving subjects with multiple cameras on drones is described herein. A multi-drone capturing system is used to remove the restriction of a dedicated virtual reality shooting place, “the hot seat,” so that the actor/target is able to perform agile or long-distance activities outdoor. The subject's 3D pose parameters are estimated by the captured multi-view images by the drones, and the sequence of poses becomes the motion in time to control the animation of a pre-built 3D model. The method is able to be directly integrated into an existing Virtual Reality/Augmented reality (VR/AR) production chain, and the subject is able to be extended to animals that are difficult to be contained in a VR camera mesh space.
