Model

Pose Estimator

Extract body keypoints to support intent, posture cues and gait sampling.

beta Body Keypoints KeypointsGait

Overview

A keypoint model runs periodically (every few frames) on tracked people. The skeletons feed behavioural intent estimation, posture / fall cues, and the gait descriptor that contributes to cross-camera re-identification. Running it on an interval keeps it off the per-frame critical path.

RoleBody Keypoints
Expected latency~5–12 ms / person (GPU)
Hardware requirementsNVIDIA GPU recommended
Memory requirements~1–2 GB VRAM

Inputs & Outputs

Inputs
  • Person crop / frame
  • Track id
Outputs
  • 2D keypoints per person
  • Gait descriptor contribution

Advantages & Limitations

Advantages

  • Enables intent + gait
  • Interval scheduling caps cost
  • Robust to partial visibility

Limitations

  • Crowded overlap confuses keypoints
  • Needs enough resolution on the subject
  • Beta accuracy on unusual poses
