This would also help users jog their memories on when and where their posture was best. For example: during my day, where was my posture the best? Having some sort of map that showed where I walked overlaid with this type of information - maybe with color - showing where my posture was the best would also be cool. If Lumo had location for their wearable or app, it would be able to add that information to my trends data display. After my personal experience with Lumo specifically, I can envision a few instances where they may be able to take their device capabilities to the next level: 1. Stepping back from what Lumo is doing right today, we can’t help ourselves when it comes to envisioning the next generation of features and functionality.
