The device includes patented biomechanical monitoring sensors that use angle displacement to determine when the user’s body deviates from a previously calibrated standard of good posture.

Leading up to Black Friday, Samsung’s Galaxy Gear smartwatch, despite its prolonged presence on the market, did not even make the top ten list of smartwatches favored by smartwatch users, according to Feland.
