Pose to Video

A library to convert pose file to a video.

Installation

npm install pose-to-video

Usage

const { poseToVideo } = require('pose-to-video');

poseToVideo('path/to/your/pose/file.pose', 'path/to/output/video.mp4')
  .then(() => console.log('Video created successfully!'))
  .catch(err => console.error(err));

Dependencies

• binary-parser: For parsing the binary pose file.
• canvas: For rendering the pose frames.
• ffmpeg: Required for stitching the frames into a video. Make sure you have ffmpeg installed and available in your system's PATH.
• pose-format: For parsing the pose file.
• pose-viewer: For rendering the pose frames.

The pose-format and pose-viewer library is included in the src. Since I needed to modify the src code of these library, I copied them into my repo. The credit goes to the original authors.

How it works

1. Parse Pose File: The library reads the .pose file and parses the header and body information.
2. Render Frames: For each frame in the pose data, it uses a renderer (currently a canvas renderer) to draw the pose on a canvas.
3. Stitch Frames: The rendered frames are then stitched together into a video using ffmpeg.
