The study presents a vision‑language model pipeline that estimates dynamic, triaxial, bilateral external hand forces during manual material handling tasks using only RGB video and known box mass. By combining text‑guided ROI localization, pretrained vision‑transformer features, and transformer‑based temporal regression, the model achieved root mean square errors of about 4.7–5.6 N for horizontal and mediolateral forces and 10.6–11.0 N for vertical forces across various camera setups. The approach demonstrated that including the handled object as a second ROI and using multi‑camera capture improved peak‑force estimation, showing the feasibility of sensor‑free force estimation for occupational exposure assessment.
