Pose Estimation

Pose estimation is a computer vision technique that predicts the configuration of a person's or object's joints or parts in an image or video.

It involves detecting and tracking the position and orientation of these parts, usually represented as keypoints.

Pose estimation is widely used in applications such as motion capture, human-computer interaction, augmented reality, and robotics. The process typically involves training machine learning models on large datasets of annotated images to accurately identify and locate the keypoints.
