According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an advanced wearable assistive system, specifically an ERGOSUIT - Support Exosuit for Posture Correction, designed to enhance user posture and reduce the risk of work-related musculoskeletal disorders. In modern industrial environments, workers are frequently exposed to prolonged standing, repetitive lifting, and improper body mechanics, which lead to lower back pain, muscle fatigue, and decreased productivity. This invention introduces a cost-effective, ergonomically designed wearable solution that provides structural support to critical body regions while continuously monitoring posture. The system integrates sensor-based technologies such as inertial measurement units (IMU) and microcontrollers to detect body alignment and movement in real time. It further incorporates feedback mechanisms to alert users and promote corrective posture during work activities. The proposed ERGOSUIT is lightweight, modular, and adaptable to different body types and job roles, ensuring comfort and ease of use over extended durations. It is designed for seamless integration into industrial workflows without restricting natural movement. The system offers a practical and scalable solution for improving worker safety, enhancing productivity, and reducing long-term health risks in occupational environments."
