This repository contains an implementation for performing 3D animal (quadruped) reconstruction from a monocular image or video. The system adapts the pose (limb positions) and shape (animal type/height/weight) parameters for the SMAL deformable quadruped model, as well as camera parameters until the projected SMAL model aligns with 2D keypoints and silhouette segmentations extracted from the input frame(s).

badja_extra_videos.zip doesn't seem to exist anymore #21

It appears that badja_extra_videos.zip doesn't seem to exist anymore.

I tried running wget http://mi.eng.cam.ac.uk/~bjb56/datasets/badja_extra_videos.zip and got connection timed out.

Manually visiting http://mi.eng.cam.ac.uk/~bjb56/datasets/badja_extra_videos.zip just loads forever.

is there a working mirror of these videos? also, is it necessary to use these particular videos, or can any animal videos like from YouTube be used? (Newbie here)

Ah yes -- it looks like our Cambridge hosting server is down. I've created a mirror which you can use.

You can use any videos you like -- you'll need to generate segementations and click keypoints, to generate equivalent input files to the examples. Look at my README.md page for some tips (it's not quite complete but should get you started).
