Smart Posture Correction Wearable for Individuals with Cerebral Palsy

The smart Posture Correction Wearable is designed to assist individuals with cerebral palsy (CP) in maintaining proper posture through real-time feedback. The device utilizes posture sensors and a haptic feedback mechanism to detect misalignments and provide gentle vibrations or alerts for correction. The methodology involved designing a wearable system with embedded sensors, processing real-time data using machine learning algorithms, and integrating the device with a mobile application for posture tracking. A pilot study was conducted on individuals with CP over four weeks, where data on posture deviations, user responses, and comfort levels were recorded. The mobile app provided data-driven insights, enabling users to track progress and adjust their posture accordingly. The lightweight and adjustable design ensured comfort, making it suitable for prolonged use. Overall, the wearable technology demonstrated significant potential in enhancing postural alignment, reducing the risk of musculoskeletal issues, and improving the quality of life for individuals with CP. Future enhancements will focus on increasing sensor precision and expanding clinical trials for broader validation.
