  • Abstract
    A model for tracking articulated objects is proposed using a 2D revolute-prismatic joint. An extension of the RANSAC and MLESAC algorithms incorporating feature weights is used to perform robust tracking. The models are suitable for tracking certain human body structures. Limbs are modelled as constrained planar patches. A patch can rotate about a joint point that is displaced relative to the previous patch. A scenario in which the forearm is tracked is used to illustrate the method.
