Abstract

This paper presents a approach on how to reduce stress and fatigability in the user’s eyes, muscles and also backbone when the user is using a computer. The study uses image processing technique for the detection of the face of the user. The monitor of the desktop computer is connected with a DC motor that will auto align itself to the face of the user in order to make sure it is in front of the user’s face. If the user moves its head sideward the monitor will align and this will help the user to have movements of the bone and also muscles on its back. The movement of the monitor through the microcontroller and also the face detection part was programmed on the python software.
