Social-Distancing is an open-source project for automatically estimating interpersonal distance from uncalibrated RGB cameras. The software can be freely used for any non-commercial applications to assess compliance with safe distances. The code is open and can be improved with your support, please contact us at socialdistancing@iit.it if you would like to help us.
- The dataset can now be downloaded from the following link: social_distancing_dataset.
- Alghorithm updates with better distance evaluation and computational speed up
- Fast ellipses intersections check with Shapely
- Added masking support to select interesting areas
- Streaming support
- Acquisition from Jetson nano camera
- Ubuntu 20.04 with Cuda 10.1 support
- Code for live camera acquisition and video processing.
- New video samples in the samples folder.
Given a frame captured from a scene, the algorithm first detects visible people in the scene using an off-the-shelf body pose detector and estimates the height of the people through measuring the distance from their body joints. In the second step, the algorithm estimates an area of one meter around all the detected people. This distance is roughly estimated proportional to a typical human body height of 160 cm and can be used to draw a circle centered in human position in the scene. In the third step, the Homography of the scene is estimated given two parameters which essentially map the rectangular bird’s view model for the scene to the trapezoidal perspective view of the scene. These two parameters need to be manually tuned to estimate best the scene perspective. According to the Homography matrix, the safe circular distance for each person is converted to ellipsoids in perspective view. The people are considered to be staying in safe distance from each other if their ellipsoids do not collide. Conversely, if ellipsoids of two people collide, those people are considered as being in risk and their ellipsoids will be shown in red.
