Abstract

A device to be added to a walker. The device is used to monitor, correct, and improve the user's posture. The device is removably affixed to the walker and includes a pair of grips which monitor the amount of weight applied to the grips. The device further tracks the weight applied to the grips over time and provides feedback of the weight to the user via the monitor.
