Body Pose Estimation

The Body Pose Estimation collection contains the required components to run the NVIDIA AR SDK 3D Body Pose Estimation feature. 3D Body Pose estimation predicts 3D human body pose from images or videos. It predicts 34 keypoints of a human skeleton model in 2D and 3D with joint angles and supports multi-person tracking. It supports models for general full body estimation and others specialized for the upper body.

This collection is part of the NVIDIA Augmented Reality SDK.

This feature is ready for commercial use.
