After measuring my posture without feedback and after with bluetooth notification feedback I'm pretty happy with the result of this project. Here are the improvements I would include in another revision of the board:
1) Vibration motor for non-bluetooth posture notifcations
2) Add traces/connector for ICSP (CRITICAL!)
3) Replace R1 to 2k to increase charge rate to 500 mA
It would be neat to do a study of long term impacts of using this, could it actually improve sitting/standing posture without the notifications? I think that it likely would.
Here are some measurements before and after enabling notifications
Day | Average Posture |
WFH | 63 |
WFH-With Bluetooth Posture Feedback | 75 |
Random Weekend | 63.96 |
In the Lab | 68.64 |
Straight as Possible | 72.5 |
Plank | -6.94 |
