Abstract Posture is the coordination of our bodies, and neglect may result in chronic losses of dexterity. However, the effectiveness of many restorative measures fluctuates in different circumstances, causing complications especially amongst workers and students. This project uses MediaPipe’s pose estimation and ML programs to develop optimized real-time processing of posture through a web extension, enabling anyone to work ergonomically regardless of their environment.
