A macOS app that blurs your screen when you slouch(github.com)

Highly recommend the LookAway app if you are on macOS and looking for something encouraging you to take breaks and maintain good posture.

Works pretty well, probably too resource heavy to just always keep on. Suggestion: give the user a shortcut key to close the app in case the blur goes haywire on them.

Hi - thanks for the feedback. I've improved CPU usage with the latest release. I'll look into a kill switch.

lol, whenever I am hacking intensely, I am lying down on my bed with laptop tilted with the perfect angle.

I guess this app won’t catch me slouching then.

Would be cool to see integration with something like Upright Go or other sensors you place on your back that detect tilt etc.

It would be great if there was something like this, but for not wearing reading glasses.

this is great! I made one for nail-biters: https://github.com/cacoos/trackhands

Guzzles my CPU, cool though! Would use if it didn't eat up half a core to boot.

I reduced the vision processing to about 10 fps as well as reduced camera resolution. I saw about an 80% reduction in CPU! Thanks for the feedback.

Is there anyone out there who’s productive and sitting upright? Asking for me..

might be obvious but you have to calibrate it while in your target posture
