Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and a method for detecting a pose of a user. The program and method include receiving a monocular image that includes a depiction of a body of a user; detecting a plurality of skeletal joints of the body depicted in the monocular image; and determining a pose represented by the body depicted in the monocular image based on the detected plurality of skeletal joints of the body. A pose of an avatar is modified to match the pose represented by the body depicted in the monocular image by adjusting a set of skeletal joints of a rig of an avatar based on the detected plurality of skeletal joints of the body; and the avatar having the modified pose that matches the pose represented by the body depicted in the monocular image is generated for display.
