Popis: This study aims to track a non-rigidly deformable object in real-time using successive range images. Our approach assumes that the object is globally rigid and partially non-rigid during a short interval between 3D snapshots. The tracking process consists of 3 steps; estimating the rigid transformation by ICP algorithm, extracting the non-rigidly deformed areas, and estimating their deformation vectors by Thin Plate Spline Robust Point Matching (TPS-RPM) algorithm. In our past research, it took mach time for estimating the deformation vectors. Then, in this paper, techniques for accelerating the tracking process are described.
