+# Perceiving Humans: from Monocular 3D Localization to Social Distancing
+
+> Perceiving humans in the context of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) 
+often relies on multiple cameras or expensive LiDAR sensors. 
+In this work, we present a new cost- effective vision-based method that perceives humans’ locations in 3D 
+and their body orientation from a single image.
+We address the challenges related to the ill-posed monocular 3D tasks by proposing a deep learning method 
+that predicts confidence intervals in contrast to point estimates. Our neural network architecture estimates 
+humans 3D body locations and their orientation with a measure of uncertainty. 
+Our vision-based system (i) is privacy-safe, (ii) works with any fixed or moving cameras,
+ and (iii) does not rely on ground plane estimation. 
+ We demonstrate the performance of our method with respect to three applications: 
+ locating humans in 3D, detecting social interactions, 
+ and verifying the compliance of recent safety measures due to the COVID-19 outbreak. 
+ Indeed, we show that we can rethink the concept of “social distancing” as a form of social interaction 
+ in contrast to a simple location-based rule. We publicly share the source code towards an open science mission.
