Detecting Sitting Posture via webcam and Improving habits with Python

Idea

Sitting posture is an important habit to develop early and can add up over the years. My wife tells me that I have a golumn like hunch when I am coding and I wanted to improve on this. I wanted to improve my sitting posture while working on my laptop, so this project will need to achieve a few things:

  1. Get access to laptop webcam
  2. Develop posture and face recognition
  3. Record the number of times off posture
  4. Develop a way to remind to user to rectify their posture
  5. Analyze the improvements over time

Getting Started / Prerequisites

To run this script you will need python or conda installed
