Mediapipe Python actors

We are currently in the progress of developing several Gazebo Python actors based on the Mediapipe framework. These are based on the 0.10.9 version of the Mediapip library

• The base repository can be found here: https://github.com/hku-ect/PoseTrackActor
• Development is being done here: https://github.com/ikbenmacje/PoseTrackActor/tree/mediapipe0.10.9

PoseTrackActor

The PoseTrackActor is a python actor for gazebo using the Mediapip framework to do body pose recognition. In order for the actor to work you need to install mediapip 0.10.9 and requirements in de folder of the python actor. You also need to save the stage to that directory so that the directory with the python modules becomes the working directory form which the actor is loaded.

See for more instructions here: https://github.com/ikbenmacje/PoseTrackActor/tree/mediapipe0.10.9
