Abstract: The prolonged issue of poor posture due to desk work has led to innovative technological remedies.This study shows the development of a flexible piezoelectric biosensor integrating BaTiO 3 nanoparticles within a Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix for practical posture correction.The biosensor is capable of real-time posture monitoring and correction by leveraging the piezoelectric properties of BaTiO 3 .Comprehensive synthesis and characterization using X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) validated the ideal particle size and crystalline structure of the composite.COMSOL Multiphysics simulations showed a peak potential of 0.87 volts under mechanical stress, which further confirmed the sensor's efficiency.Electrical testing revealed that the sensor with 35 wt.% BaTiO 3 exhibited a higher output voltage of 0.87 V compared to 0.34 V for the sensor with 30 wt.% BaTiO 3 , emphasizing its exceptional potential for addressing posturerelated issues.
