Poor Posture Detection System of Hug using Depth Camera and Pose Estimation

Abstract

In this study, we use a software called OpenPose estimate the posture of carrying. A depth camera is used as the imaging device. In this study, we use a photographic device called Realsens. From the front view, we examine three points: the position of the hand supporting the baby's buttocks, the angle of the arm, and the angle of the arm supporting the baby's back. From the side view, the angle of the arm supporting the baby's back and two points of the back muscles are examined. From the space vectors with the depth information corresponding to the coordinates of the feature points, we calculate the values. We will consider a system to visualize the evaluation values from the analysis results in an easy-to-understand manner for users.
