Mediapipe Holistic

MediaPipe Holistic is a real-time computer vision framework enabling full-body pose estimation, including hand and face tracking, with applications in diverse fields. Current research focuses on improving its accuracy and efficiency, particularly for challenging scenarios like occlusions and dynamic movements, often employing convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and, in some cases, recurrent neural networks (RNNs) like LSTMs for enhanced performance. This technology significantly impacts areas such as healthcare (posture analysis, sign language recognition), accessibility (communication aids for the hearing impaired), and human-computer interaction, offering improved real-time performance and accuracy compared to previous methods.
