Posture Advice Controller Using Sensor Feedback
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing technologies can detect undesirable postures but fail to provide users with actionable advice on how to improve them, leading to a lack of information on alleviating negative body influences.
Innovation Solution
An information processing system equipped with sensors to detect user postures, a storage unit for posture data, and a controller that creates advice based on sensor data and posture classification, providing users with specific guidance on how to correct their posture and reduce negative influences on their body.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If only posture detection is implemented, then the system can identify problematic postures, but it cannot provide actionable guidance for improvement
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides feedback by comparing detected postures against stored reference data and generating advice notifications. The controller creates advice based on the detected posture and stored posture data, then outputs this advice to the user, forming a closed-loop feedback system that not only detects but also guides improvement.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces an intermediary processing layer (the controller) that mediates between the sensor data and the user. This controller analyzes the detected posture, references stored posture data, and generates appropriate advice, acting as an intermediary that transforms raw detection data into actionable guidance.
2Loss of information
If detailed posture analysis is provided, then users receive comprehensive feedback, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges multiple functions into a single integrated controller that performs posture detection analysis, reference data comparison, and advice generation. By combining these functions in one controller rather than separate modules, the system reduces overall complexity while still providing comprehensive posture analysis and guidance.
Solution Approach 2:
The controller serves multiple functions: it analyzes detected posture data, compares it against stored reference posture data, determines negative influences, and generates appropriate advice. This multi-functional approach allows the system to provide comprehensive information without requiring separate dedicated components for each function.
Data Source
AI summary
An information processing system comprises a sensor configured to sense a first posture that a user is taking; a storage configured to store posture data about a posture of a person; and a controller configured to create advice for the user regarding a negative influence on a body of the user, based on sensor data acquired from the sensor and the posture data.
