The invention relates to an ergonomic system for an adjustable bed system, said ergonomic system having a data processing device and an image recording device coupled to the data processing device, said image recording device being arranged and configured in such a way that image data constituting an image of a user of the bed system are transmitted to the data processing device, wherein said data processing device is connected with an ergonomics database and is configured to evaluate the image data, in order to determine the user's position data and posture data. The data processing device is further configured to compare the determined position data and posture data with reference data in the ergonomics database, in order to determine a parameter for an ergonomic accuracy of a corresponding user position and posture according to the comparison. Furthermore, the data processing device is configured to adjust a bed system setting according to the determined parameter.
