14.3 Artificial intelligence for posture detection
Automatic posture detection using artificial intelligence in Ergoniza Intelligent relies on computer-vision and machine-learning techniques that estimate anatomical landmarks and the relative orientation of body segments from images and video sequences. From these estimates, Ergoniza Intelligent reconstructs a three-dimensional posture of the model and calculates the corresponding joint angles. Tracking and smoothing mechanisms are applied to video to reduce noise between frames. The results are estimates and must be reviewed by the user, especially when there are occlusions, unfavorable viewpoints, blur, or rapid movements.
