Abstract
A posture measurement and feedback instrument comprising a signal source and a receiver attached to either half of a hinge. When the hinge is applied to the skin covering the xyphoid process, it pivots in response to slumping, changing the receiver output accordingly. Software is installed on a telecommunication device to store a posture threshold value and generate a feedback signal when the output of a posture sensing means reaches or exceeds the threshold. Software may also be installed on a computer to store posture data and generate posture feedback, while the computer is being used for an unrelated purpose. A person is alerted when sampled posture data meet or exceed a threshold of immobility. When sampled posture data reach or surpass a threshhold of postural dysfunction, exercises suited to reverse that particular dysfunction are selected from a menu.
