What Comes First: Combining Motion Capture and Eye Tracking Data to Study the Order of Articulators in Constructed Action in Sign Language Narratives

no code implementations • LREC 2020 • Tommi Jantunen, Anna Puupponen, Birgitta Burger

We use synchronized 120 fps motion capture and 50 fps eye tracking data from two native signers to investigate the temporal order in which the dominant hand, the head, the chest and the eyes start producing overt constructed action from regular narration in seven short Finnish Sign Language stories.

We consider a non-intrusive computer-vision method for measuring the motion of a person performing natural signing in video recordings.
