Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a body support that allows users to rest with minimal strain on their bodies while using electronic devices like touchpads and smartphones. The support has a curved surface that automatically adjusts to the user's body shape, providing a comfortable and ergonomic position. This eliminates the risk of neck pain or damage from strain while playing games or watching TV. The support also allows users to maintain good posture and use their hands and heads for other activities while using the support. The support can be designed in a variety of ways, such as being stiff or resilient, based on the user's needs. The slope of the support's curvature can also be adjusted based on the user's hips position for optimal fit.

Problems solved by technology

Common to all is that they can not allow the user to continue using, for example, their touchpad and / or smartphone without limiting user time and requiring discipline and continuous implementation in an already fully packed daily schedule.
