Embedded systems have become very popular in recent years, and that field is rapidly advancing especially in health monitoring technology. Therefore, we present in this paper an application for posture correction, utilizing microcontrollers and ultrasonic sensors. When a bad posture is detected, the user is noti?ed. Our system is designed specifically for computer users to prevent them from leaning too close to their computers' monitors.
Author Keywords: embedded systems, microcontrollers, Arduino, ultrasonic sensors, posture.

Our system is designed specifically for computer users to prevent them from leaning too close to their computers' monitors.
