Abstract:
    Pregnant Women go through lumber and pelvic pain during and post pregnancy. This project investigates to monitor and observe the behavioral and physical changes such as motion patterns and body postures of pregnant women as well as their health and well being through the wearable vest linked with wearable feedback induced accessory.
What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ?
    While being pregnant, it is crucial to maintain the health and body fitness as there are some evidence that active women are less likely to experience problems in later pregnancy and labour. This project will help pregnant women to cater their overall body postures and health by themselves.
Who needs it ? How many would benefit ?
   For working pregnant women who have to travel twice a day, have long working hours, prolonged sitting or standing position, this project will make remembering easy, by gently reminding them every time they stay bent over for too long. It makes sitting (and standing) better, unbelievably easy.
How will the solution works
    The wearable vest will have small sensors that will be placed at the spinal area of the body that will monitor the body posture when slouching or leaning. The sensors will be linked to the wearable bracelet type accessory having LCD screen display which will give you feedback of your back postures as well as your pulse rate and heartbeats. The wearable vest will also have detachable flaps to tie around the belly that will lift the weight of the belly slightly upward.
Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different
    UPright is a smart wearable fitness training device that helps you to correct your body postures. But this device is not designed for pregnant women. My project will be beneficial in this regard as it will be specifically catering the need of pregnant women.
