Abstract
A biomechanically optimizing mobile device use system having a mobile computer device with readable storage and a display; an orientation determination system included with the mobile device and adapted to determine a position of the mobile device; and, an operating system that, when the mobile device is powered on and upon each repositioning of the mobile device, is adapted to: determine a current position, determine a reference position relative to one of a vertical position and a face down position, determine a stress angle of the mobile device according to a difference between the current position and the reference position, and, actuate a user notification according to a determination that the stress angle exceeds a predetermined angle for a predetermined length of time.

A system for biomechanically optimizing mobile device use comprising:
- a mobile device having a computer readable storage and a display;
- a processor included in the mobile device and in communication with the computer readable storage and the display;
- an orientation determination system included with the mobile device and adapted to determine a position of the mobile device;
- and,
- an operating system stored on the computer readable storage that, when the mobile device is powered on, is adapted to:
- determine a reference position relative to one of a vertical position and a horizontal position,
- determine a device tilt angle of the mobile device according to a difference between the position of the display when being viewed by a user and the reference position,
- actuate a first user notification according to a determination that the device tilt angle exceeds a predetermined angle, and
- actuate a subsequent user notification according to a determination that the mobile device has not been returned to the reference position after the first user notification.
