Overview of this book

With this hands-on guide to 3D deep learning, developers working with 3D computer vision will be able to put their knowledge to work and get up and running in no time. Complete with step-by-step explanations of essential concepts and practical examples, this book lets you explore and gain a thorough understanding of state-of-the-art 3D deep learning. You’ll see how to use PyTorch3D for basic 3D mesh and point cloud data processing, including loading and saving ply and obj files, projecting 3D points into camera coordination using perspective camera models or orthographic camera models, rendering point clouds and meshes to images, and much more. As you implement some of the latest 3D deep learning algorithms, such as differential rendering, Nerf, synsin, and mesh RCNN, you’ll realize how coding for these deep learning models becomes easier using the PyTorch3D library. By the end of this deep learning book, you’ll be ready to implement your own 3D deep learning models confidently.

Modeling the Human Body in 3D

In the previous chapters, we explored ideas for modeling a 3D scene and the objects in them. Most of the objects we modeled were static and unchanging, but many applications of computer vision in real life center around humans in their natural habitat. We want to model their interactions with other humans and objects in the scene.

There are several applications for this. Snapchat filters, FaceRig, virtual try-on, and motion capture technology in Hollywood all benefit from accurate 3D body modeling. Consider, for example, an automated checkout technology. Here, a retail store is equipped with several depth-sensing cameras. They might want to detect whenever a person retrieves an object and modify their checkout basket accordingly. Such an application and many more will require us to accurately model the human body.

Human pose estimation is a cornerstone problem of human body modeling. Such a model can predict the location of joints such as shoulders...
