The human pose tracking framework may store, the joint locations, and cause presentation of a rendition of the joint locations on a user interface of a client device.

Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for object detection and inserting graphical elements into an image stream in response to detecting the object. The systems and methods detect an object of interest in received frames of a video stream. The systems and methods identify a bounding box for the object of interest and estimate a three-dimensional position of the object of interest based on a scale of the object of interest.

The one or more graphical elements are generated within the video stream to form a modified video stream. The systems and methods cause presentation of the modified video stream including the object of interest and the one or more graphical elements.
