Posture analysis with computer vision
Use video analytics to accurately interpret human forms and categorize them into known postures – from sitting to standing. Apply deep learning algorithms and harness human pose estimation to track known postures across video frames. Combine elements of motion and dwell-time analysis to track transformations between postures (falling down) and the amount of time that elapses between those posture-changing events. Posture recognition in video analytics is used in a number of common ways:
