The geriatric syndrome known as frailty is characterized by diminished physiological reserves and heightened susceptibility to unfavorable health consequences. As the world’s population ages, it is crucial to detect frailty early and accurately in order to reduce hazards, including falls, hospitalization, and death. In particular, functional tests are frequently used to evaluate physical frailty. However, current evaluation techniques are limited in their scalability and are prone to inconsistency due to their heavy reliance on subjective interpretation and manual observation. In this paper, we provide a completely automated, impartial, and comprehensive frailty assessment system that employs computer vision techniques for assessing physical frailty tests. Machine learning models have been specifically designed to analyze each clinical test. In order to extract significant features, our system analyzes the depth and joint coordinate data for important physical performance tests such as the Walking Speed Test, Timed Up and Go (TUG) Test, Functional Reach Test, Seated Forward Bend Test, Standing on One Leg Test, and Grip Strength Test. The proposed system offers a comprehensive system with consistent measurements, intelligent decision-making, and real-time feedback, in contrast to current systems, which lack real-time analysis and standardization. Strong model accuracy and conformity to clinical benchmarks are demonstrated by the experimental outcomes. The proposed system can be considered a scalable and useful tool for frailty screening in clinical and distant care settings by eliminating observer dependency and improving accessibility.
