Summary:We propose a method to estimate the motion of a person filmed by
two or more fixed cameras. The novelty of our technique is its ability
to cope with fast movements, self-occlusions and noisy images. Our
algorithms are based on the latest works on calibration and image
segmentation developed in our lab. We compare the projections of a 3D
model of a person on the images to the detected silhouettes of the
person, and by creating forces that will move the 3D model towards the
final estimation of the real pose. We developed a fast algorithm that
computes the motion of the articulated 3D model. We show that our
results are good, even if the cameras are not synchronized
