3. Main Idea 1 Correct Camera Matrix Pedestrian observations are consistent (no height change). 3

4. Main Idea 1 Incorrect Camera Matrix Pedestrian grows or shrinks. Pedestrians can be used as a measuring stick to calibrate the camera. 4

5. Main Idea 2 Image Plane Camera Center 3D World P1P1 Camera Matrix (P F ): P F = P 1 Light Source P1P1 P2P2 Shadow Camera Matrix (P S ): P S = P 1 o P 2 5

6. Main Idea 2 Correct light source position Pedestrian shadow observations are consistent. 6 Analogously, a reflection camera can be defined.

7. In summary Simultaneously Estimate: 1- Ground Positions (in 3D) 2- Horizon height (in 2D) 3- Light source position (in 3D) 4- Pedestrian height (in world units) 5- Axes scaling (to define the unit of length) X Z Y 7 That are Mutually Consistent and Explain the observations.

Problems: - Discretization matters. - Equal contributions voxels ray. Solution: Beer-Lambert law correction (predicts light attenuation in solutions), R 1,1 R 2,1 R 6,1 R 3,1 - measured in [blocking probability / meter]. - Same to traverse 1 big voxel or 2 of half the size. 9 2D Prior3D Prior
