Abstract
We detail the development of deformable surface models to track object s undergoing motion, using real-time range data acquired from our sens or. The surface model for an object consists of B-spline tenser produc t patches, augmented with a dynamic and measurement model. To maximize performance, careful consideration is made of where to make the next range measurements, based on the current uncertainty of the model. By calculating the reduction in uncertainty that each measurement makes, the optimal sampling position at every step can be found.
