A Vision-based Human Posture Detection Approach for Smart Home Applications
Yangxia Shu, Lei Hu · International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications · 2023
Effective posture identification in smart home applications is a challenging topic for people to tackle in order to decrease the occurrence of improper postures. Vision-based posture identification has been used to construct a system for identifying people's postures. However, the system complexity, low accuracy rate, and slow identification speed of existing vision-based systems make them unsuitable for smart home applications. The goal of this project is to address these issues by creating a vision-based posture recognition system that can recognize human position and be used in smart home applications. The suggested method involves training and testing a You Only Look Once (YOLO) network to identify the postures. This Yolo-based approach is based on YOLOv5, which provides a high accuracy rate and satisfied speed in posture detection. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the developed system for posture recognition on smart home applications.
