Hand gesture translator
Turn simple webcam hand gestures into playful WorkPose translations. Works with your phone camera, laptop camera, or webcam. It runs entirely in your browser and the camera feed never leaves your device.
Prop your phone at desk height for front checks, or turn it sideways for side-view posture scans. Same test, same URL, no app.
Open phone linkWhat this test measures
This check reads your translation confidence from a short on-device camera scan and compares it against an evidence-based comfort range (35+). The model maps the joints involved and averages the angle so a single fidget doesn't skew your result.
How to read your result
Green means you're inside the healthy range. Amber means you're drifting and it's worth a small adjustment. Coral means the angle is past the comfort line for long enough to cause strain. Your number updates live, so you can watch a fix land in real time.
What to fix first
- Adjust the one input driving the biggest signal — screen height, chair depth or input distance.
- Re-run the test and watch the meter move before you change anything else.
- Set a reminder so the corrected posture becomes the default, not the exception.
When to use WorkPose Pro
One test reads one signal. If you want this checked continuously — combined with posture, eye strain and fatigue, with live nudges and a progress history — that's what Pro does. It turns a one-off number into a habit that holds.
How this hand model check works
- The gesture recognizer runs in your browser and camera data stays on your device.
- The tool maps recognized hand gestures to short playful translations.
- It is designed as a demo of camera AI capability, not as accessibility-critical translation.
How to use your result
- Translated: the browser recognized a clear gesture and mapped it to a message.
- Not ready: show one clear hand gesture with good lighting and distance.
- Try again: switch between open palm, thumbs up, thumbs down, victory, and pointing up.
Why this is fun
The translator makes the hand model visible and understandable in seconds: show a gesture, see the message, and watch the confidence update live.
Best setup
- Show one hand clearly.
- Keep the hand away from your face.
- Use front-facing light and avoid fast motion.
Privacy and limits
