The primary objective of this research is to enhance physical well-being, boost engagement, foster adherence to exercise and yoga routines, and refine users' posture and balance. A pivotal phase in this project involves keypoint extraction, skillfully executed using MoveNet, an advanced posture estimation model. To achieve this, deep learning algorithms such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Dense Neural Networks (DNNs), and Multi-Layer Perceptrons (MLPs) are deployed to effectively classify and categorize yoga and exercise positions. The culmination of this endeavor manifests in the form of an interactive web application. The robustness and efficacy of the system are underscored by extensive user testing, which has also assessed its usability and potential to significantly enhance the physical well-being of the elderly. In summation, this research represents a substantial advancement in the realm of targeted exercise and yoga support, expressly designed to cater to the distinctive needs of the senior demographic. exercise yoga elderly MoveNet deep learning tailored support keypoint extraction Tiago robot user testing personalized assistance Full Text Additional Declarations No competing interests reported.
