Chronic slouchers and hunchers, listen up. Risr is a new technology that uses safe vibration feedback to correct poor posture, a special vest made of a delicate network of wires and vibrating sensors.

Already we’ve seen smart clothing that logs data to help with your posture, and a posture-correcting computer monitor, but this Risr can be worn beneath any shirt, so you can work on your hunchback in style and without being obvious about it.

Risr works by connecting to an app on your smartphone and vibrating in response to your position relative to the “target” posture. [Risr.me via TechCrunch]
