| <h3>Overview</h3> | ||
| <p> | ||
| Performance Capture refers to the technology and processes involved in digitally recreating the movements, poses, gestures, appearance, and expressions of a human and its surroundings. | ||
| Methods to do so typically use body-worn sensors, RGB and depth cameras, and advanced Computer Vision algorithms to record the intricate details of a performer's movements. | ||

|
||
| <h3>Objective</h3> | ||
| <p> | ||
| The goal of the seminar is to familiarize students with exciting new research topics in this important area but also to teach basic scientific writing and oral presentation skills. | ||

| <h3>Content</h3> | ||
| <p> | ||
| Performance Capture refers to the technology and process involved in capturing and recreating the movements, gestures, and expressions of a human and its surroundings. | ||
| It's a relevant field for various applications, including animation, virtual reality, and video games. | ||
| It involves using advanced sensors, cameras, and computer vision algorithms to record the intricate details of a performer's movements, typically focusing on their face, body, clothing, and interactions. | ||
| We will also explore the technology and applications behind high-end, multi-view capture stages, as the | ||

| </p> | ||
|
|
||
| <p> | ||
| Papers from scientific venues such as CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, and SIGGRAPH will be examined in-depth to explore the latest research in the field. | ||
| Students present and discuss the papers to extract techniques and insights that can be applied to software & hardware projects. | ||
| </p> | ||
|
|
||
| <h3>Format </h3> | ||
| <p> | ||
| The seminar is structured to encourage critical reading and discussion of the papers, and the attendance in the weekly meetings is mandatory. | ||
| We use a case-study format where all students read the same paper each week but fulfill different roles and hence prepare with different viewpoints in mind ( "presenter", "PhD", and “Journalist”). | ||
| The final deliverables include: | ||
| <ol> | ||
| <li> 1x time: 20 Minute presentation as <b>Presenter</b>, giving a <i>short</i> presentation about the paper that you prepare in depth. </li> | ||
| <!-- <li> 1x time: 5 Minute presentation as <b>Historian</b>, explaing how this paper sits in the context of the related work. </li> --> | ||
| <li> 1x time: A4 research proposal as <b>PhD student</b>, proposing a follow-up project for your own research based on this paper </li> | ||
| <li> 1x time: A4 summary of the discussion as <b>Journalist</b>, writing an article about the the paper that can be understood by the general public </li> | ||
| <li> Every week: <b>All students</b> come up with an alternative title and three questions/comments about the paper before the start of the seminar </li> | ||
