Sit Up StraightBioMetric Systems has an exclusive license to the Posture Video Analysis Tool (PVAT) developed at Johnson Space Center. PVAT uses videos from Space Shuttle flights to identify limiting posture and other human factors in the workplace that could be limiting. The software also provides data that recommends appropriate postures for certain tasks and safe duration for potentially harmful positions. BioMetric Systems has further developed PVAT for use by hospitals, physical rehabilitation facilities, insurance companies, sports medicine clinics, oil companies, manufacturers, and the military.
