Abstract
Disclosed herein is a motion capture apparatus and method. The motion capture apparatus includes a three-dimensional (3D) appearance reconstruction unit for reconstructing a 3D appearance of an entity using a multi-view image obtained by capturing the entity at a T+1-th frame. A 3D skeleton generation unit generates a 3D skeleton of the T+1-th frame using the 3D appearance and a model of the entity having a motion of a T-th frame. A motion reconstruction unit reconstructs a motion of the T+1-th frame of the model by changing the motion of the model based on the 3D skeleton of the T+1-th frame.
