How can you tell if a short person is slouching? Or a tall person?

I'm not the author, but I assume it benchmarks the highest height of your head, blurs from there, and updates its baseline if you ever appear higher.

Meaning that the way to have "perfect posture" is never to sit up straight in the first place :-)

It has a calibration step

If you assume a person’s chair height and desk height are both set optimally, then I guess the person’s height doesn’t matter for this detection.

Not that I have particularly bad posture, but…

> Posturr uses your Mac's camera

Not all of us have web cams, or are willing to tolerate them from a security perspective. [apologetic grin]

About 20 years ago they was an early XDG /Compiz plugin called ‘literal focus’ - as a joke, it only focused the focused window. It’s amusing to see this technique being used more practically.

Great, so now my eyes and back are going to be f'd. Just step away from the screen and take regular breaks.
