Considering that the majority of adults today lead sedentary lives, 37 Degree Smart Home is addressing the need to nurture healthy sitting habits in young kids with its smart child desk design, KIDESK.
KIDESK is currently part of an active crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter and it is also being showcased during this week's CES 2019 as a groundbreaking smart home product. KIDESK helps children and adults alike become more mindful about sitting habits, as the furniture piece detects and reminds children about their posture and how long they've been sitting.
The kid-friendly desk for youth between the ages of five to 12 is optimized to keep mobile devices at a safe distance from the eyes and children who are able to keep a healthy sitting posture are rewarded with a special lighting pattern.
