System and method for generating alert based on monitoring of neck alignment of user

A wearable device for generating an alert based on monitoring of neck alignment of a user, the wearable device comprising:

• one or more sensors;
• memory storing one or more computer programs;
• and
• one or more processors communicatively coupled to the one or more sensors and the memory,
• wherein the one or more computer programs include computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wearable device to:
• determine, via the one or more sensors of the wearable device worn by the user, an orientation of a head of the user based on an inclination of at least one sensor of the one or more sensors,
• evaluate a tilt angle associated with the head based on the determined orientation,
• determine a degree of misalignment of a neck based on the tilt angle,
• determine a score associated with a posture of the neck based on a body mass index (BMI) of the user, the tilt angle, a force on the neck, and the degree of misalignment of the neck,
• determine, based on the score, whether the posture corresponds to a specific type, and
• generate the alert, in response to determining that the posture corresponds to the specific type.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media storing one or more computer programs including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a wearable device, cause the wearable device to perform operations, the operations comprising:

• determining, by the wearable device, via one or more sensors of the wearable device worn by a user, an orientation of a head of the user based on an inclination of at least one sensor of the one or more sensors;
• evaluating, by the wearable device, a tilt angle associated with the head based on the determined orientation;
• determining, by the wearable device, a degree of misalignment of a neck of the user based on the tilt angle;
• determining, by the wearable device, a score associated with a posture of the neck based on a body mass index (BMI) of the user, the tilt angle, a force on the neck, and the degree of misalignment of the neck;
• determining, by the wearable device, based on the score, whether the posture corresponds to a specific type;
• and
• generating, by the wearable device, an alert, in response to determining that the posture corresponds to the specific type.
