Reliability Verification of Shoulder Joint Range of Motion Measurement Using OpenCV and Motion Capture; OpenCV와 모션 캡처를 이용한 어깨관절 가동범위 측정 신뢰도 검증OpenCV

초록

As the population ages, the concept of active seniors has been emerging recently. Among various body parts that are cared for by an active elderly, the shoulder has a unique exercise structure. Therefore, the incidence of shoulder injuries might be high. In the case of a shoulder disease, the method of measuring the movement angle of the shoulder is mainly used. To measure the movement angle of a shoulder accurately, a goniometer is used. In addition, we suggested self-diagnosis, believing that if shoulder disease could be detected early through self-diagnosis, rapid treatment will be possible. This paper measured and compared shoulder angles with the goniometer, OpenCV, and motion capture systems to determine measurement errors between them. Through experimental results of this paper, the possibility of self-diagnosis with precise measurement of the movement angle of a shoulder oneself with a goniometer was confirmed even if the expert could not measure the shoulder angle. © © The Korean Society for Precision Engineering.
