Abstract
More and more people suffer from back health issues and other afflictions due to their position at the desk, their working ambiental environment and growing sedentarism. The proposed IoT system aims to help people and companies with such concerns and create a healthier environment to work in. The proposed system is placed on a person’s desk. The system uses a camera and a computer vision model to analyse a person’s position at the desk. It also uses a set of sensors to assess the ambiental environment’s quality in accordance with ESH (Environmental, Safety, and Health) recommendations. The information analysed can be accessed by the end-user through a visual report that emphasizes the deviations from the recommended standards. The possibility to faster detect non-conformities in working environments and bad habits in ergonomics can improve the quality of the working space and delay or prevent health issues in the long term.
