Edward Muybridge (1830–1904) is known as the pioneer in motion capt- ing with his famous experiments in 1887 called “Animal Locomotion”. Since then, the feld of animal or human motion analysis has grown in many dir- tions. However, research and results that involve human-like animation and the recovery of motion is still far from being satisfactory. Progress in human motion analysis depends on empirically anchored and grounded research in computer vision, computer graphics, and biomechanics. This book is based on a June 2006 workshop held in Dagstuhl, Germany. This workshop brought together for the frst time researchers from the afo- mentioned disciplines.
