Ergoskin Shirt Concept for Posture Correction

Filed under: Rehab


Designer Talia Elena Radford Cryns won Austria's National Design Award, the "Adolf Loos Staatspreis Design", for the Ergoskin concept shirt. The garment would be able to detect the wearer's posture and signal back to correct it. The idea is indeed intriguing, as the main problem with correcting one's postures is having to keep the issue in mind.

Great idea, we all need reminders to keep an eye on our posture, I think this is a neat idea which serves as a reminder and that it should complement a training program that helps you out in the first place! Then you won't be so bent out of shape and get so many reminders!
