Apparatus and method for generating synthetic training data for motion recognition

An apparatus for generating synthetic training data for motion recognition, the apparatus comprising:

• a processor, and
• a memory configured to store at least one instruction executed by the processor,
• wherein the at least one instruction includes:
• an instruction to generate a three-dimensional (3D) human body model in real time according to motion of a human body;
• an instruction to convert volume data of the 3D human body model into a 3D linear structure and extract skeletal joint information;
• an instruction to generate a data set of a human body image and skeletal joint information by rendering the 3D human body model and the skeletal joint information;
• and
• an instruction to provide the data set of the human body image and the skeletal joint information as synthetic training data for motion recognition.
