This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Articulated Motion and Deformable Objects, AMDO 2008, held in Port d'Andratx, Mallorca, Spain, in July 2008. The 36 revised full papers and 7 poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 64 submissions. The papers are organized in topical section on computer graphics: human modelling and animation, human motion: analysis, tracking, 3D reconstruction and recognition, multimodal user interaction: VR and ar, speech, biometrics, and advanced multimedia systems: standards, indexed video contents.
