Add New Exercise
Instructions
When adding a new exercise to vibereps:
-
Read the template at exercises/_template.json for the JSON structure
-
Choose a detection type based on the exercise motion:
angle - Joint angle changes (squats, pushups)height_baseline - Vertical movement from baseline (calf raises)height_relative - Position relative to reference point (jumping jacks)tilt - Torso lean (side stretches)distance - Body parts approaching each other (standing crunches)width_ratio - Shoulder/hip width ratio (torso twists)quadrant_tracking - Circular arm motion (arm circles)
-
Create the JSON config in exercises/{exercise_name}.json
-
Test detection by running the tracker
MediaPipe Landmark IDs
Key landmarks for detection:
- Shoulders: 11 (left), 12 (right)
- Elbows: 13 (left), 14 (right)
- Wrists: 15 (left), 16 (right)
- Hips: 23 (left), 24 (right)
- Knees: 25 (left), 26 (right)
- Ankles: 27 (left), 28 (right)
