Abstract
A tracker is described which comprises an input configured to receive captured sensor data depicting an object. The tracker has a processor configured to access a rigged, smooth-surface model of the object and to compute values of pose parameters of the model by calculating an optimization to fit the model to data related to the captured sensor data. Variables representing correspondences between the data and the model are included in the optimization jointly with the pose parameters.
