Since a human object is an important element of the moving pictures being processed by mobile terminals, establishing a human object extraction method encourages dissemination of new applications. In accordance with the requirement of mobile applications, this paper proposes a low-cost human object extraction method, which consists of a face object and a hair object extraction based on their color information and a simple body extraction utilizing the position information of the face object. In the proposed method, skin color and hair color are estimated through color space segmentation, and a human object is effectively extracted by using a radial active contour model. Simulation results of the human object extraction with the use of XScale processor claims that QCIF 15 fps video sequences can be processed in real time.
