Vision-Language Models for Occupational Physical Exposure Assessment: Estimating External Hand Forces in Manual Material Handling Tasks from RGB Video
The findings demonstrate the feasibility of estimating continuous, bilateral, directional hand-force estimates from RGB video and known load mass without requiring sensors on the worker or handled objects as model inputs, supporting the development of more scalable occupational physical exposure and risk assessments.
