A fitness assistance to help the blind!

Our Mission:
Having proper technique and form is crucial when performing a physical exercise to avoid incurring injuries as well as getting the most out of the action; however, this is significantly more difficult to verify for someone with a visual impairment. To address this problem, we propose a system that combines both pose estimation along with a voice-command based interface to allow people with visual impairments to receive guidance on proper physical fitness technique.
