• Abstract: We introduce a novel task of reconstructing a time series of second-person 3D human body meshes from monocular egocentric videos. The unique viewpoint and rapid embodied camera motion of egocentric videos raise additional technical barriers for human body capture. To address those challenges, we propose a simple yet effective optimization-based approach that leverages 2D observations of the entire video sequence and human-scene interaction constraint to estimate second-person human poses, shapes, and global motion that are grounded on the 3D environment captured from the egocentric view. We conduct detailed ablation studies to validate our design choice. Moreover, we compare our method with the previous state-of-the-art method on human motion capture from monocular video, and show that our method estimates more accurate human-body poses and shapes under the challenging egocentric setting. In addition, we demonstrate that our approach produces more realistic human-scene interaction.

  Estimating 3D human motion from an egocentric video sequence plays a critical role in human behavior understanding and has various applications in VR/AR. We propose a new method, Ego-Body Pose Estimation via Ego-Head Pose Estimation (EgoEgo), which decomposes the problem into two stages, connected by the head motion as an intermediate representation. This disentanglement of head and body pose eliminates the need for training datasets with paired egocentric videos and 3D human motion.

  We aim to tackle the interesting yet challenging problem of generating videos of diverse and natural human motions from prescribed action categories. Key issue lies in the ability to synthesize multiple distinct motion sequences that are realistic in their visual appearances. Action2motionally generates plausible 3D pose sequences of a prescribed action category, which are processed and rendered by motion2video to form 2D videos.
