MUMBAI, India, July 11 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511060741 A) filed by Manipal University, Jaipur, Rajasthan, on June 25, for 'ai fitness coaching system for real-time posture correction andexercise monitoring using computer vision.'

Inventor(s) include Prashasti Rai; Vijay Prakash Sharma; and Dr. Sumit Srivastava.

The application for the patent was published on July 11, under issue no. 28/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an AI-based fitness coaching system (100) that utilizes computer vision and machine learning to monitor, evaluate, and guide physical exercises in real-time without the use of wearable sensors. The system (100) captures live video through a standard camera, extracts body keypoints using pose estimation models such as MediaPipe or OpenPose, and analyzes joint angles and body alignment to assess posture accuracy. A machine learning classifier identifies the type of exercise being performed, while a posture evaluation module compares real-time user poses with predefined ideal poses. The system (100) provides immediate feedback through audio and visual prompts when deviations are detected. Additionally, incorrect posture snapshots are automatically captured and annotated for visual comparison and user learning. A repetition counter logs only those movements that meet posture criteria, and a performance tracking module generates metrics such as form accuracy and error quotient."
