6. Human Body Detection

AI that identifies human pose and human hand landmark points from camera and stage.

Human body detection encompasses a range of technologies for detecting the presence of a human body in an area or space. Air conditioners that come with human detecting sensors 🌡 and can detect people’s location 📍 to optimize comfort and energy-saving 💡 are one of the most common examples of this technology.

What this extension focuses on is Pose and Hand Pose detection 🕺🤲. These algorithms help identify where the body joints are positioned.

Pose Detection is a real-time pose detection technique with which you can detect human beings’ poses in Images 📸. It allows you to estimate human pose by detecting body parts such as elbows, hips, wrists, knees, and ankles, and form a skeleton structure of your pose by joining these points.

Pictoblox makes use of the Pose Net model for Pose Detection.

Pose Net gives us a total of 17 key points that we can use, right from our eyes 👀 to ears 👂 to knees and ankles. If the Image we give to Pose Net is not clear the Pose Net displays a confidence score of how much it is confident in detecting a particular pose as well.
