What is PosturePad?
PosturePad is a sensor-embedded seat pad that detects how you sit and when you're slouching. It uses gentle ambient cues and analytics to nudge you back into ergonomic alignment, all without intrusive or uncomfortable wearable devices.
How It Works
PosturePad combines embedded sensors, ambient feedback, and software analytics to turn your everyday chair into a smarter, more ergonomic workstation.
Set up PosturePad on your chair
Place PosturePad on your existing office chair or seat. No tools or special hardware required.
Sensors quietly learn your posture
Embedded force sensors and machine learning detect how you typically sit throughout the day.
Ambient cues for alignment
PosturePad then delivers gentle haptic or lighting cues to help you maintain healthier posture.

I've tried using back braces and other posture devices before, but they were always too cumbersome to wear and walk around with. I would love for a product that can train me to sit upright on my own.

As someone with lower back pain, I'm always mindful of how I'm sitting. I also work from home and spend a lot of time making my work space comfortable. I would love to add this product into my work-from-home setup.
