Wow! Motion capture studios not gonna love this!
Just check this insane video.
For years, capturing human motion meant markers, skin-tight suits, and hours of cleanup.
MAMMA just asks for a few synced cameras pointed at the scene.
Out comes a full 3D body for every person, every frame.
No suits. No markers.
The clever bit: instead of tracking a handful of joints, it reads hundreds of points.
And it actually understands contact.
It knows when a foot touches the ground, when two people are holding each other.
So feet stop sliding and bodies stop passing through each other, even when dancers are tangled up close.
When
@Michael_J_Black calls this maybe the biggest day in 3D capture history, you pay attention.
The kicker? It's basically as accurate as the gold-standard Vicon systems studios pay a fortune for.
A multi-day pipeline drops to a single day. It even works with 4 iPhones.
Here's why roboticists should care: clean, realistic human motion at scale, without the expensive rig.
The thing holding humanoids back was never really the algorithm. It was the data.
Keep up good work the

@AYiannakidis and the rest of the MAMMA team!
I’ve been capturing 3D human motion for 30 years and today is maybe the biggest day in that history. We are presenting MAMMA at CVPR (oral session 2A). MAMMA is a markerless multi-camera system that has accuracy similar to marker-based systems.
