Researchers from the Technical University of Denmark and TrackMan A/S developed SportsPose, a large-scale, markerless 3D human pose dataset featuring over 176,000 poses of highly dynamic sports movements from 24 subjects. The dataset's accuracy was quantitatively validated against a commercial marker-based system, showing a mean error of 34.5 mm.

Key insights

  • Highly dynamic sports movements can be effectively captured and validated in a large-scale, markerless 3D pose dataset using a scalable multi-camera setup.
  • The novel "local movement" metric effectively quantifies the dynamic range and variety of poses in extremum joints, demonstrating SportsPose's superior dynamism compared to existing datasets.
  • Rigorous in-domain quantitative validation against marker-based systems provides a reliable approach to ensure the accuracy and trustworthiness of markerless 3D pose ground truth data.
