Abstract
A processor of an orientation estimation device, as an orientation estimation method for estimating an orientation of a player existing in a sport video, receives reference orientation information which is information obtained based on information input by a user and which is information designating a joint position of a specific player existing in the sport video of an estimation target game and estimates an orientation of an estimation target player who is a player other than the specific player existing in a sport video of an estimation target using the reference orientation information.
Claims14
An orientation estimation method for estimating an orientation of a player existing in a sport video by a processor, wherein the processor
- receives reference orientation information of a specific player included in the sport video, the reference orientation information designating a plurality of joint positions of the specific player;
- applies the reference orientation information to an estimation target player that is included in the sport video and different from the specific player;
- and estimates an orientation of the estimation target player using the reference orientation,
- wherein information designating the joint positions of the specific player is generated based on user's input individually performed for at least a plurality of places of joints, and
- wherein information specifying the estimation target player is generated based on the user's input individually performed for a number of places fewer than a number of the plurality of places of joints.
An orientation estimation device, comprising:
- a processor,
- wherein the processor receives reference orientation information of a specific player included in the sport video, the reference orientation information designating a plurality of joint positions of the specific player, and
- applies the reference orientation information to an estimation target player that is included in the sport video and different from the specific player;
- and
- estimates an orientation of the estimation target player using the reference orientation information,
- wherein information designating the joint positions of the specific player is generated based on user's input individually performed for at least a plurality of places of joints, and
- wherein information specifying the estimation target player is generated based on the user's input individually performed for a number of places fewer than a number of the plurality of places of joints.
