Abstract

Articulated tracking of humans is a well-studied field, but most work has treated the humans as being independent of the environment. Recently, Kjellström et al. [1] showed how knowledge of interaction with a known rigid object provides constraints that lower the degrees of freedom in the model. While the phrased problem is interesting, the resulting algorithm is computationally too demanding to be of practical use. We present a simple and elegant model for describing this problem. The resulting algorithm is computationally much more efficient, while it at the same time produces superior results
