## Quick Start
Check that the library is working properly by using any of the following commands. Note that `examples/media/video.avi` and `examples/media` exist, so you do not need to change the paths.

## Heat Maps Storing
The following command will save all the body part heat maps, background heat map and Part Affinity Fields (PAFs) in the folder `output_heatmaps_folder`. It will save them on PNG format. Instead of individually saving each of the 67 heatmaps (18 body parts + background + 2 x 19 PAFs) individually, the library concatenate them vertically into a huge (width x #heatmaps) x (height) matrix. The PAFs channels are multiplied by 2 because there is one heatmpa for the x-coordinates and one for the y-coordinates. The order is body parts + bkg + PAFs. It will follow the sequence on POSE_BODY_PART_MAPPING in [include/openpose/pose/poseParameters.hpp](../include/openpose/pose/poseParameters.hpp).

3. Smart multi-threading: Some classes are much more faster than others (e.g. pose estimation takes ~100 ms while extracting frames from a video only ~10 ms). In addition, any machine has a limited number of threads. Therefore, the library allows the user to merge the faster threads in order to potentially speed up the code. Check the [real-time pose demo](../examples/openpose/rtpose.cpp) too see a more complete example.
