Design and Development of Posture Detection System Using Load Sensor

A state of health, physically, mentally, spiritually, and socially, which is essential. Needed by the community in life to live productively socially and economically. One that affects health is sitting posture. Most of the time, humans spend their time sitting. The wrong sitting posture will significantly affect a person’s health. Detecting poor posture can help prevent profound damage to human health. This thesis builds a sitting posture detection system using a force sensor (load sensor), which is useful for providing information on the user’s pressure when sitting. This tool will get pressure from the hip seat. It can also provide ergonomic value to products such as Posture Cloud Medi Fit Stores. The results displayed by this tool are in the form of sit mapping. Users can draw conclusions about the correct way to sit and health diagnoses by knowing the pressure when sitting.
