A system and method for human motion detection and tracking (10) are disclosed. In one embodiment, an optical sensing instrument (16) monitors a stage (24). A memory (182) is accessible to a processor (180) and communicatively coupled to the optical sensing instrument (16). The system (10) captures a depth frame (150) from the optical sensing instrument (16). The depth frame (150) is converted into a designated depth frame format (152), which includes at each image element second coordinate values relative to the depth frame (150). Probability distribution models are applied to the designated depth frame format (152) to identify a respective plurality of body parts. The position of each of the respective plurality of body parts in the designated depth frame format (152) is calculated as is the position of each of the respective plurality of body parts in the depth frame (150).
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present disclosure relates, in general, to biomechanical evaluations and assessments, which are commonly referred to as range of motion assessments, and more particularly, to automating a biomechanical evaluation process, including a range of motion assessment, and providing recommended exercises to improve physiological inefficiencies of a user.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Human beings have regularly undergone physical examinations by professionals to assess and diagnose their health issues. Healthcare history has been predominantly reactive to an adverse disease, injury, condition or symptom. Increasingly, in modern times, with more access to information, a preventative approach to healthcare has been gaining greater acceptance. Musculoskeletal health overwhelmingly represents the largest health care cost. Generally speaking, a musculoskeletal system of a person may include a system of muscles, tendons and ligaments, bones and joints, ...
