  • Publication number: 20240029382
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system for presenting AR items. The system performs operations including: receiving an image that includes a depiction of a first real-world body part in a real-world environment; applying a machine learning technique to the image to generate a plurality of dense outputs each associated with a respective pixel of a plurality of pixels in the image; applying a first task-specific decoder to the plurality of dense outputs to identify a pixel corresponding to a center of the first real-world body part; applying a second task-specific decoder using the identified pixel to retrieve a 3D rotation, translation and scale of first real-world body part from the plurality of dense outputs; modifying an AR object based on the 3D rotation, translation, and scale of first real-world body part; and modifying the image to include a depiction of the modified AR object.
