Analysis on smart seats intelligently correcting users' sitting posture

Abstract

In contemporary times, an increasing number of individuals are encountering health-related issues stemming from extended periods of sitting, primarily attributable to improper sitting posture. Hence, the introduction of an intelligent seating solution into the market is imperative and holds significant potential for commercial success. Concerns regarding the health of children, namely their spinal development, as well as the need for sedentary workers to maintain a healthy sitting posture, have become significant issues for consumers. Currently, there are certain items in the market, such as backrests, which aim to partially correct sitting posture. However, these products have limitations in terms of requiring attachment or wearing, as well as lacking sufficient data support. Consequently, the user experience and scalability of these products are considerably inadequate. Based on the analysis of consumer big data by China Business News data (CBNData), there has been a notable surge in the markets appetite for premium corrective goods in recent years. There exists a market demand for products that are closely associated, specifically smart seats. Currently, researchers have conducted investigations on the recognition and reminder systems pertaining to sitting posture. This paper aims to conduct a comprehensive analysis and evaluation of the fundamental prerequisites and advancements in intelligent seating systems by employing literature analysis and review methods.
