PROBLEM STATEMENT : 

Many students spend long hours sitting at desks, studying or working on laptops. this will eventually lead to neck strain, back pain, slouching and rounded shoulders. many people dont notice it until they experience back and shoulder pain, headache , neck stain. while posture correcting braces and devices exist, many are bulky, awkward, or uncomfortable to wear, making people reluctant to use them regularly. The result- Students and office-goers continue to develop long-term posture problems, affecting comfort, focus, and overall health.

GAPS IN CURRENT MARKET : 

Current wearables don’t provide real-time corrective feedback combined with progress tracking and exercises. Many solutions focus on general health or fitness, not preventive posture correction in daily life.

Existing posture braces are often uncomfortable, bulky, and unattractive, so users avoid wearing them. Current solutions like ergonomic chairs or posture reminders are often expensive, inconvenient, or easily ignored.

SOLUTION : 

The Smart Posture Wearable is a small, discreet device — like a clip-on, bracelet, or posture-correcting band — that monitors your posture in real time using motion sensors. Unlike bulky braces, it’s comfortable, stylish, and easy to wear under clothing. When the wearer slouches or sits incorrectly, it provides gentle haptic feedback to remind them to correct their posture. The companion app tracks progress, offers personalized exercises, and sends micro-reminders for posture breaks, helping users gradually develop healthy posture habits.

• Real-time slouch detection with gentle vibration alerts.

• Daily posture analytics and progress tracking.

• Personalized exercises and micro-break reminders.

BENIFITS : 

• Prevents chronic back, neck, and shoulder pain.

WHY THIS PROBLEM MATTERS TO ME : 

I personally experience this issue. also, I’ve noticed that many students and professionals often suffer from back, neck, and shoulder pain due to long hours of sitting or studying. It’s concerning because these issues are preventable with early intervention. I came up with this idea- PostureSense to make posture correction simple, comfortable, and a part of daily routines, so people can maintain their health and focus without extra effort or stress.
