Abstract
 Even with lots of attention and work in the computer vision and artificial intelligence field, human body pose detection is still a daunting task. The application of human pose detection is wide-ranging from health monitoring to public security. This paper focuses on the application in yoga, an art that has been performed for over a millennium. In modern society yoga has become a common method of exercise and there-in arises a demand for instructions on how to do yoga properly. Doing certain yoga postures improperly may lead to injuries and fatigue and hence the presence of a trainer becomes important. As many people don’t have the resources to have a yoga instructor or guide, artificial intelligence can act as a substitute and advise people on their poses. Currently, the research surrounding pose estimation for yoga mainly discusses the classification of yogic poses. In this work, we propose a method, using the Tensorflow MoveNet Thunder model, that allows real-time pose estimation to detect the error in a person's pose, thereby allowing them to correct it.
