As the intensity of work increases, many of us sit for long hours while working in the office. It is not easy to sit properly at work all the time and sitting for a long time with wrong postures may cause a series of health problems as time goes by. ...
This paper proposes a low-cost sensor system composed of four GNSS-RTK receivers to obtain accurate position and posture estimations for a vehicle in real-time. The four antennas of the receivers are placed so that every three-antennas combination is...
With the development of human motion capture (MoCap) equipment and motion analysis technologies, MoCap systems have been widely applied in many fields, including biomedicine, computer vision, virtual reality, etc. With the rapid increase in MoCap dat...
Surveillance of sleeping posture is essential for bed-ridden patients or individuals at-risk of falling out of bed. Existing sleep posture monitoring and classification systems may not be able to accommodate the covering of a blanket, which represent...

Static and dynamic posture analysis was a critical clinical examination in physiotherapy and rehabilitation. It was a time-consuming task for clinicians, so a semi-automatic method can facilitate this process as well as provide well-documented medica...
Expressing emotions through various modalities is a crucial function not only for humans but also for robots. The mapping method from facial expressions to the basic emotions is widely used in research on robot emotional expressions. This method clai...
Markerless three-dimensional (3D) pose estimation has become an indispensable tool for kinematic studies of laboratory animals. Most current methods recover 3D poses by multi-view triangulation of deep network-based two-dimensional (2D) pose estimate...
Martial arts tracking is an important research topic in computer vision and artificial intelligence. It has extensive and vital applications in video monitoring, interactive animation and 3D simulation, motion capture, and advanced human-computer int...
The change from face-to-face work to teleworking caused by the pandemic has induced multiple workers to spend more time than usual in front of a computer; in addition, the sudden installation of workstations in homes means that not all of them meet t...
