wonder if it can be adapted for poser... volunteers step forward

It is a python script so ... there is a possibility ... how much resources it uses would probably be a real tell. It would be interesting to see if it works. But this would be a job for a real Python/Poser master.

I tried to understand what it does, but I don't get it.
" OpenPose represents the first real-time multi-person system to jointly detect human body, hand, and facial keypoints (in total 130 keypoints) on single images."
What can I do with this information?

Hi wim ... from the description it appears that it is interpreted from photos to be applied to a 3d program like Poser that uses human models. But, like you, I'm not sure.

I haven't examined it closely, so I don't know if I could even hope to make sense of the thing, but... it is intriguing.
Plus, even if it doesn't work at all, it can hardly be worse than Poser Kinect. Hoo boy.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking. He apologizes for this. He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.
Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below. His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.

Hi Cage ... well if anyone can make sense of this it would be you or bb, and since although this is about Python Script, bb is more into shaders then posing. It would be interesting if someone could make sense of this. I keep thinking somewhere in this is real potential if we could pull some clarity out of it.

It could be interesting to have an exporter for Poser. But Openpose does not have a very open License. It's just free for noncomercial or academic use. I doubt that an exporter would be a success with this limitations.
A commercial license costs 25000$ a year, a bit too much for the Poser community, I guess.

I am still trying to understand what this thing does. What can you do with the file once you create it? I don't see an option for creating mocap or BVH files.

Not at the moment. What they have published is just a demonstration. Since the program can read human poses from simple images, it should be possible to get a bvh from it.
