1. 0:02Every project looks simple [music] when
2. 0:03it's finished.
3. 0:05>> Before that, there are failures, broken
4. 0:06ideas, and questions. We ask a simple
5. 0:10question. Why should something as basic
6. 0:11as sitting still be so difficult? Today,
7. 0:13[music]
8. 0:14>> every day we sit for hours coding,
9. 0:17studying, designing, and scrolling. At
10. 0:20first, [music] it feels normal, but
11. 0:22slowly the pain starts to build.
12. 0:26And the worst part, we don't even notice
13. 0:28our posture getting bad.
14. 0:30>> Bad posture doesn't give bonics. It
15. 0:32doesn't show inside damage.
16. 0:34>> And the existing solutions, they're
17. 0:36uncomfortable. They're restrictive. And
18. 0:37most people stop using them after a few
19. 0:39days.
20. 0:40>> We wanted to build a system that teaches
21. 0:42posture naturally.
22. 0:43>> We wanted to build a system that teaches
23. 0:45posture naturally.
24. 0:46>> That system is poster.
25. 0:48>> We started with basic ideas, simple
26. 0:50sensor test, and uncomfortable early
27. 0:52models.
28. 0:54We failed, we redesigned and we rebuilt.
29. 0:57>> Today we have reached this stage. App is
30. 0:59fully functional. PCB is fabricated and
31. 1:01ready for assembly. Components sourced
32. 1:03globally. Compliance research completed.
33. 1:05Design patent research done. 3D CAD
34. 1:07model completed. Website developed and
35. 1:09packaging designed.
36. 1:10>> This is the brain of post studies.
37. 1:18>> A custom PCB processes posted data in
38. 1:20real time using a high precision sensor.
39. 1:22This is the body. Economically designed
40. 1:24for comfort so users can wear them for
41. 1:26long durations.
42. 1:26>> And this is the heart of our user
43. 1:28interface.
44. 1:29>> Our device continuously monitors posture
45. 1:31and alerts the user to sudden vibration
46. 1:33in case the poor posture persists for a
47. 1:35long time.
48. 1:36>> Is designed not to scare you, not to
49. 1:37shame you, but to gently guide you.
50. 1:39>> When we visited the market, we saw two
51. 1:41types of product.
52. 1:41>> One poster beds. They force your body
53. 1:43into position.
54. 1:44>> Two other smart bars. They cost almost
55. 1:46three times as compared to our solution.
56. 1:48>> Post studies is different. Others focus
57. 1:51on forcing posture. We focus on building
58. 1:53habits.
59. 1:54>> Others improve poster momentarily, but
60. 1:56they are designed to treat muscle memory
61. 1:58for lasting effect.
62. 1:58>> A PCB is already fabricated. Our next
63. 2:01step is full assembly
64. 2:03>> followed by real world testing with
65. 2:04users.
66. 2:06>> Then pilot programs in schools, colleges
67. 2:08and workplace.
68. 2:09>> Then refinement, certification and
69. 2:10scheme.
70. 2:11>> We don't see this as just a prototype.
71. 2:13>> We see this as a future of how people
72. 2:15sit, work and live. We are building
73. 2:18posteries.
