The openingWhy this idea is overlooked
Watching a lifter's form used to require a live trainer's eye or motion-capture equipment; camera-only pose estimation now delivers real-time biomechanical feedback from a standard phone or webcam. Using pose-estimation frameworks (MediaPipe is common) plus motion analysis, apps like FormPro AI and academic prototypes detect squat, deadlift, bench, and overhead-press errors with documented accuracy in the 86 to 90-plus percent range. It is overlooked because it looks like a research demo, but it is a real hardware-to-software cost-collapse: feedback that once needed a trainer or lab gear now runs on a phone. The honest caveat is that accuracy still sits below a live trainer's judgment for complex movements. This differs from the existing body-composition and progress-photo camera apps, which measure the body rather than correct movement.
