Design of Multifunctional Health Management Desktop Robot
With the increasing use of computers for learning, office work, and scientific research, health issues such as cervical spine disease, lumbar disc herniation, and muscle degeneration (in the legs and buttocks) are becoming more common due to prolonged sitting or poor posture. In response to this situation, we have designed a multifunctional health management desktop robot that utilizes machine vision technology to analyze human posture and facial micro-expressions in real time. The robot provides real-time voice reminders and visual relaxation exercise solutions on the screen when it detects poor posture, such as slouching, prolonged sitting, or signs of fatigue during work. Additionally, the robot is equipped with a range of software features, including a Pomodoro timer and weather forecasting, to further enhance the user's work efficiency. This innovative approach aims to promote health and productivity in a modern work environment dominated by sedentary activities.
