| Abstract(in English) | This paper reports our preliminary study on the estimation of human spine posture using front and side views of human body taken by a video camera. We present here a new 3D model to estimate the spine posture using connected vertebra spheres. In this model, each vertebra forming the spine is approximated by a ball, and the spine is approximated by the series of balls adjacent to each other. Each ball has the control points to describe the outer shape of the body. By giving the rule to the movement of this ball and the control points, we can estimate the posture of the spine which decides the external shape of the body. The estimation based on the matching between our 3D model and the silhouette of the human image. X ray CT slices are used for the construction of the model. Our 3D model worked reasonably for the estimation of human spine posture based on real human images. |
