Treatment of low back pain usually includes exercise, analgesics, prostheses, and, in severe cases, surgery. Early treatments based on postural control are essential to prevent and mitigate permanent damage. We present a wearable device, with an estimated cost below U.S. $100, which uses inertial units triaxial accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers measure the orientation three sections spine. The device integrates absolute relative from sensors estimate posture real-time fuzzy system...
