Comparison of computational pose estimation models for joint angles with 3D motion capture.
Human pose estimation is a growing technique and of particular benefit to clinicians and researchers working in musculoskeletal biomechanics interested in calculating human movement patterns (Stenum et al 2021). The observation of a patient ’s joint angle during a movement can determine the effectiveness of a rehabilitation programme, risk of injury and other quality of life measures (Dos Santos et al 2016) increasing the value of objectively assessing joint angle and joint range of motion (ROM) for allied health professionals.
