Abstract :	[en] In this paper, we propose a framework for guiding patients and/or users in how to correct their posture in real-time without requiring a physical or a direct intervention of a therapist or a sports specialist. In order to support posture monitoring and correction, this paper presents a flexible system that continuously evaluates postural defects of the user. In case deviations from a correct posture are identified, then feedback information is provided in order to guide the user to converge to an appropriate and stable body condition. The core of the proposed approach is the analysis of the motion required for aligning body-parts with respect to postural constraints and pre-specified template skeleton poses. Experimental results in two scenarios (sitting and weight lifting) show the potential of the proposed framework.
