Abstract
Musculoskeletal disorders are an unavoidable occupational health problem. In particular, workers who perform repetitive tasks onsite in the manufacturing industry suffer from musculoskeletal problems. In this paper, we propose a system that evaluates the posture of workers in the manufacturing industry with single-view 3D human pose-estimation that can estimate the posture in 3D using an RGB camera that can easily acquire the posture of a worker in a complex workplace. The proposed system builds a Duckyang-Auto Worker Health Safety Environment (DyWHSE), a manufacturing-industry-specific dataset, to estimate the wrist pose evaluated by the Rapid Limb Upper Assessment (RULA). Additionally, we evaluate the quality of the built DyWHSE dataset using the Human3.6M dataset, and the applicability of the proposed system is verified by comparing it with the evaluation results of the experts. The proposed system provides quantitative assessment guidance for working posture risk assessment, assisting the continuous posture assessment of workers.
