Posture Correction Application

This is a lightweight desktop application that uses MediaPipe and a built-in GUI to monitor and help correct your posture using your webcam. The app is built with Python, Flask, and PyWebview and must be compiled locally using PyInstaller.

Features

• Real-time posture detection using webcam
• Alerts for poor posture
• Simple web-based UI embedded in a desktop window
• Built with Python, Flask, MediaPipe, and PyWebview
• Can be compiled into a single executable

How to Run

Since the dist/ folder is not included, you need to compile the application yourself:

1. Install dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Build the executable

pyinstaller --onefile --add-data "app:app" run.py

🔧 Make sure you have pyinstaller installed (pip install pyinstaller).

3. Run the app

Navigate to the dist/ folder created by PyInstaller and run the generated run file.

Built With

• Python
• Flask
• MediaPipe
• PyWebview
• PyInstaller

File Structure

 app/
 └── app.py, templates/, static/  <- Flask + posture logic
run.py         <- Main launcher script
requirements.txt
README.md

🧠 How It Works

MediaPipe tracks posture via key body points using your webcam. Flask serves the posture visualization and logic, and PyWebview wraps it into a native desktop app.
