<p>You can do that pretty easily using Posenet or Openpose. Train the keypoints for Squats and then count it. :)</p>

<p>Yes, this is a rather straightforward problem that should be able to be solved using openCV or ANNs.</p>

<p>I am planning to build an app which will count the number of sqauts from videos. Assuming that the user and camera do not move, are there ways I can count the number of squats? Do such models to understand human activity and pose exist?</p>
