Summary:POSTURE MONITORING SYSTEM An article of wearing apparel, to be worn on the upper body of a subject, includes a portion for covering the back of the subject. Sensors for sensing the changes in posture of the subject and providing electrical signals proportional to the degree of change in posture are removably mounted on the portion for covering the back of the subject. Electronic circuitry analyzes the electrical signals to provide an output, which can be sensed by the subject, when the posture of the subject deviates from a pre-set postural position by a predetermined amount. The electronic circuit is disposed in a carrier which is also removably mounted from the article of clothing apparel.
