초록

We propose a frequency estimation algorithm of human movements using Kinect. We collect the 3D coordinates of the joints of a human body and then obtain the frequency-domain description of the movements using the discrete Fourier transform (DFT). By choosing the frequency with the biggest magnitude in the selected frequencies of each of human's joint, we obtain the major beat of the human movements. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm accurately estimates the frequency of human movements. We expect that the proposed algorithm would be applied to many AR and VR applications as a preprocessing.
