Abstract

Sedentary office workers who lean their necks forward can easily lead to physical health problems such as posture and neck and shoulder pain. The purpose of this study is to integrate health technologies into sedentary office hours to help workers become aware of forward head posture and subsequently promote neck exercises. We have designed the Wryneck Tree interactive system, which consists of three parts: A physical interactive device that mimics the form of a tree, which can monitor forward head posture and subtly change its shape; A digital exergame that motivates users to perform neck relaxation exercises, and a data visualization interface that presents the head posture data. Preliminary user experiments have validated that the interactive system can encourage users to actively improve forward head posture, encouraging us to optimize the Wryneck Tree interactive system further.
