This Wearable Gadget Reminds You To Maintain Good Posture
Lumo BodyTech announced at CES 2014 its small gadget that detects the wearer’s body posture and vibrates as a reminder to ‘stop slouching’. The Lift can be clipped to an undershirt, collar or bra strap with a Scrabble tile-sized magnet that comes in a variety of colors.
“Lumo Lift tracks your body positions and movements, and when you close off your body, the sensor provides a gentle vibration to remind you to keep your shoulders back and head lifted,” a company spokesperson told Mashable. “It also provides feedback and rewards through a mobile app.”
Although it only clasps to clothing, the spokesperson said it could expand to different forms of jewelry in the future.
The Lumo Lift is the company’s latest posture-correcting devices, as well as its smallest. Right now, the company is looking to crowdfund the project on its website, LumoBodyTech and hopefully launch the device in late spring with an expected retail price of $59-$79.
