Posture is...Determined subconsciously
Developed habitually
Harmed bystressful activities
Harmed by a sedentary lifestyle
Corrected with repeated effort

Six Design Tasks
1. Wanting to appear more confident with better posture
2. Reducing back pain and stiffness when sitting
3. Trying to be more aware of “posture creep”
4. Discovering which activities trigger posture habits
5. Maintaining a healthy viewing angle with screens
6. Transferring good posture between activities

Sketch 1: Laptop Webcam app
9/15
Design Method
Screen dims in response to poor posture
Clickable notification icon for app will display posture report when clicked
Clicking notification icon opens posture information (time, percentages, etc.) Also allows for on/off toggle, overall status
Uses webcam input from user’s laptop to judge current posture and log it

Why we chose wearable posture reminder?● Supports BOTH of the two tasks we considered critical for our user group
○ Becoming aware of “posture creep”
○ Adapting to changing activities
● Possibility for integration with existing devices (ex. mobile phones, Apple watches)

Lessons Learned in the Design Process
● It’s easier to design for a specific group of people than the entire human population.
● Getting the tasks right is critical in coming up with the right design
● Multiple research techniques allowed us to get better perspective on this open-ended problem
