Posture is an important part of health. Prolonged poor posture, such as slouching or leaning to one side, can lead to pain and discomfort. It has also been shown to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, vision problems, strokes, and musculoskeletal diseases. Solutions are needed to help people adjust their posture to prevent these problems and improve the health of students and people with sedentary careers. Current monitoring solutions have limitations that have prevented their widespread adoption. To solve this problem, researchers have developed a comfortable and durable self-powered fabric that can be paired with sensors to help correct posture in real time.
