The following is relevant to my computer. It’s now very simple to test and save data from openpose.

Open PowerShell
Type this in to set the correct directory:

PS D:\DOWNLOADS BACKUP> CD "d:\DOWNLOADS BACKUP\OPENPOSE"

Type this in to run openpose on the webcam

PS D:\DOWNLOADS BACKUP\OPENPOSE> bin\OpenPoseDemo.exe

If you want to save the skeleton data to a json file type this:

bin\OpenPoseDemo.exe --write_json output_jsons/

A description of the json file format is here:

**To close it you need to close the powershell itself.
