Utilization in medical and nursing homes
Accumulating useful information for healthcare and rehabilitation,
and monitoring human flow and movements
VisionPose allows for skeletal detection even when lying in bed, sitting in a wheelchair, or with parts of the body obscured. This enables data collection without burdening patients and can be used for rehabilitation or health-maintenance mini-games.
Visualizing skeletal movements at the start of rehabilitation or at any subsequent point can aid in future planning and motivate users. Additionally, detecting movements and postures in various scenarios, such as during meals or rehabilitation sessions, and accumulating data, can serve as vital reference material for improving medical devices and various fields of research and development.
For rehabilitation and health care purposes, such as improving the motor functions of the elderly
“In Japan, where the aging population is increasing, promoting the health of elderly individuals is an essential theme. By using VisionPose, posture can be measured simply by standing in front of a camera without the need for any equipment, reducing the burden and stress on elderly individuals. Simplifying the measurement of exercise typically done in rehabilitation can also improve efficiency. Additionally, visualizing the progress of functional training in numerical form also motivates the patient.
*We are developing a demo app for posture measurement as a sample.
