Abstract: Techniques related to calibration of wide-baseline outside-in multi camera systems are discussed. Such techniques include receiving video sequences and intrinsic parameters corresponding to each of the cameras in the system, generating first extrinsic parameters for the cameras using tracked features and the intrinsic parameters and second extrinsic parameters using location parameters corresponding to motion control systems coupled to the cameras, and combining the first and second extrinsic parameters to provide real-time calibration of extrinsic parameters for the cameras.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for extraction and calculation of multi-person performance metrics in a three-dimensional space. An example apparatus includes a detector to identify a first subject in a first image captured by a first image capture device based on a first set of two-dimensional kinematic keypoints in the first image, the two-dimensional kinematic keypoints corresponding to a joint of the first subject, the first image capture device associated with a first view of the first subject, a multi-view associator to verify the first subject using the first image and a second image captured by a second image capture device, the second image capture device associated with a second view of the first subject, the second view different than the first view, and a keypoint generator to generate three-dimensional keypoints for the first subject using the first set of two-dimensional kinematic keypoints.

Abstract: A method to estimate range to a moving rigid body from a moving platform using a monocular camera. The method does not require the camera platform to maneuver in order to estimate range. The method relies on identification and tracking of certain principal features of the object. The method extracts a silhouette of an object from an obtained image and identifies two principal linear components of the silhouette. A normalized distance between the point of intersection of the two linear components and a centroid of the silhouette is computed, compared to a data set and used to determine a direction of movement of the object.
