OpenPose has represented the first real-time multi-person system to jointly detect human body, hand, facial, and foot keypoints (in total 135 keypoints) on single images.

It is authored by Ginés Hidalgo, Zhe Cao, Tomas Simon, Shih-En Wei, Yaadhav Raaj, Hanbyul Joo, and Yaser Sheikh. It is maintained by Ginés Hidalgo and Yaadhav Raaj. OpenPose would not be possible without the CMU Panoptic Studio dataset. We would also like to thank all the people who have helped OpenPose in any way.

Runtime Analysis

We show an inference time comparison between the 3 available pose estimation libraries (same hardware and conditions): OpenPose, Alpha-Pose (fast Pytorch version), and Mask R-CNN. The OpenPose runtime is constant, while the runtime of Alpha-Pose and Mask R-CNN grow linearly with the number of people. More details here.

Features

Main Functionality:

  • 2D real-time multi-person keypoint detection:
    • 15, 18 or 25-keypoint body/foot keypoint estimation, including 6 foot keypoints. Runtime invariant to number of detected people.
    • 2x21-keypoint hand keypoint estimation. Runtime depends on number of detected people. See OpenPose Training for a runtime invariant alternative.
    • 70-keypoint face keypoint estimation. Runtime depends on number of detected people. See OpenPose Training for a runtime invariant alternative.
  • 3D real-time single-person keypoint detection:
    • 3D triangulation from multiple single views.
    • Synchronization of Flir cameras handled.
    • Compatible with Flir/Point Grey cameras.
  • Calibration toolbox: Estimation of distortion, intrinsic, and extrinsic camera parameters.
  • Single-person tracking for further speedup or visual smoothing.

Input: Image, video, webcam, Flir/Point Grey, IP camera, and support to add your own custom input source (e.g., depth camera).

Output: Basic image + keypoint display/saving (PNG, JPG, AVI, ...), keypoint saving (JSON, XML, YML, ...), keypoints as array class, and support to add your own custom output code (e.g., some fancy UI).

OS: Ubuntu (20, 18, 16, 14), Windows (10, 8), Mac OSX, Nvidia TX2.

Hardware compatibility: CUDA (Nvidia GPU), OpenCL (AMD GPU), and non-GPU (CPU-only) versions.

Usage Alternatives:

  • Command-line demo for built-in functionality.
  • C++ API and Python API for custom functionality. E.g., adding your custom inputs, pre-processing, post-posprocessing, and output steps.

For further details, check the major released features and release notes docs.

Installation

If you want to use OpenPose without installing or writing any code, simply download and use the latest Windows portable version of OpenPose!

Otherwise, you could build OpenPose from source. See the installation doc for all the alternatives.

Quick Start Overview

Simply use the OpenPose Demo from your favorite command-line tool (e.g., Windows PowerShell or Ubuntu Terminal). E.g., this example runs OpenPose on your webcam and displays the body keypoints:

# Ubuntu
./build/examples/openpose/openpose.bin
:: Windows - Portable Demo
bin\OpenPoseDemo.exe --video examples\media\video.avi

You can also add any of the available flags in any order. E.g., the following example runs on a video (--video {PATH}), enables face (--face) and hands (--hand), and saves the output keypoints on JSON files on disk (--write_json {PATH}).

# Ubuntu
./build/examples/openpose/openpose.bin --video examples/media/video.avi --face --hand --write_json output_json_folder/
:: Windows - Portable Demo
bin\OpenPoseDemo.exe --video examples\media\video.avi --face --hand --write_json output_json_folder/

Optionally, you can also extend OpenPose's functionality from its Python and C++ APIs. After installing OpenPose, check its official doc for a quick overview of all the alternatives and tutorials.

Send Us Feedback!

Our library is open source for research purposes, and we want to improve it! So let us know (create a new GitHub issue or pull request, email us, etc.) if you...

  1. Find/fix any bug (in functionality or speed) or know how to speed up or improve any part of OpenPose.
  2. Want to add/show some cool functionality/demo/project made on top of OpenPose. We can add your project link to our Community-based Projects section or even integrate it with OpenPose!

Citation

Please cite these papers in your publications if OpenPose helps your research. All of OpenPose is based on OpenPose: Realtime Multi-Person 2D Pose Estimation using Part Affinity Fields, while the hand and face detectors also use Hand Keypoint Detection in Single Images using Multiview Bootstrapping (the face detector was trained using the same procedure as the hand detector).
