Abstract :
A head posture detection system based on three inertial sensors is provided in this study. Through a real-time monitor system that takes into account 3 risk posture factors, the developed device was assessed. When the human subject s posture deviates from the predefined threshold, the suggested system gives feedback. This application may be able to prevent and correct the persistent incorrect posture that leads to neck discomfort, back pain, and other posture-related issues. On the Node MCU development board, every processing operation was carried out during the experiment. The testing findings demonstrate the suggested system s ability to successfully discern between good and proper head posture.
