Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for determining a posture of a user of an Information Handling System (IHS). One or more cameras of the IHS are utilized to generate a two-dimensional image of the user as they operate the IHS. Landmarks that correspond to physical features of the user are identified through processing of the two-dimensional image generated using the cameras. The system then identifies, from a database comprising a plurality of differing wireframes, a subset of the wireframes that optimally match the physical feature landmarks of the user, each of the wireframes associated with an ergonomic level, and performs a regression analysis technique on the ergonomic level of each of the subset of wireframes to determine a posture score of the user.
