Abstract:
    Professional Mobile E-Sports Players sit in the same posture for prolonged periods contributing to significant health risks that can compromise their performance, or worse, can lead to early retirement. In typical mobile-gaming athletes, maintaining posture with a prolonged inferior viewing angle and hand-held mobile-gaming position could induce neck flexion and repeated wrist bending.
What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ?
    No prior work is done to improve the physical health conditions of professional or non-professional mobile gamers, as competitive mobile gaming is a relatively new field.
Who needs it ? How many would benefit ?
   This product is targeted to professional and habitual mobile gamers. Can also be used by other individuals who use mobile phones a lot, for example, a social media manager.
How will the solution works
    My product works by minimizing cervical/neck flexion which means less headache and nausea. It provides elbow support as the elbows are no longer suspended in the air leading to a neutral posture, where the mobile phone is kept at an eye level. The elbow support is accompanied with a stand that fits into a gaming chair like an extension. Moreover, the elbow support makes use of 4d armrest technology to give the players optimum control of the support.
Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different
    Competition that is specific to this niche does not exist. Related competitors are general posture correcting belts and braces that are wearable. My product is non-wearable extension of the gaming chair that feels natural to use and is designed to meet gamer's aesthetic needs.
