Summary:Estimating the human keypoints, i.e. wrist, elbow, and shoulder in a precise manner is crucial when performing biomechanical analysis. The common method used in estimating the keypoints is 2D human pose estimation. The use of HPE can estimate the human keypoints from an image or videos. However, there are some challenges using 2D HPE approach. The challenges can lead to inaccurate estimating of human keypoints. The use of depth sensing camera able to provide the 3D information of the respective 2D keypoints. The combination of 2D information obtained from the HPE model and the 3D information of the respective key joints obtained from the depth sensing camera can effectively solve the issues encountered by 2D HPE. The use of human detection model and human pose estimation model are performed to detect key joints using deep learning approach. The detected key joints can subsequently be processed to study human biomechanical motion and analysis.
