A Review on posture monitoring systems

The bad sitting posture leads to many back problems for young people. Nowadays the adults and young people seat for long hours hunching over their laptops and tablets. Recent researches are focus on the study and develop systems to prevent the seated persons from spinal pain with monitoring and improve the sitting posture in real-time. In this study we analyze the specification of sitting posture monitoring systems, the information required to define the human posture, the technologies used and the systems limits. The person posture can be identified by different information provided by the sensing technologies. This research can be a reference for future study for posture monitoring systems.
