Earlier we also developed image processing algorithms for automated inspection of rubber sheet for a shoe making MSME and Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) for detecting correct orientation and type of IC chips using webcam and shape detection algorithms. We have developed a prototype system using a Kinect that can detect bad leaning posture by measuring the difference between the neck-spine and hip-spine joints in the skeleton figure of Kinect. Following RULA guidelines, it raises an alert when the neck or torso is inclined more than 60 ͦ.
