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. A time-of-flight sensor of the IHS is utilized to generate a three-dimensional image of the user. The identified physical feature landmarks of the user are overlayed onto the three-dimensional image, thus allowing distances from the IHS to each of the landmarks to be determined. Based on the overlay of the physical feature landmarks onto the three-dimensional image a posture of the user relative to the IHS is determined. The posture may be scored based on the degree to which the user's posture deviates from an ergonomic posture.
