Abstract: A system and related methods for determining an actual head angle of a mobile device user from an actual orientation of the mobile device and a relative orientation of the user's head to the mobile device. The actual orientation of the mobile device may be used as a landmark such that the relative orientation of the user's head to the mobile device may be used to approximate the actual head angle of the mobile device user. The determined actual head angle may be compared to a predetermined head angle corresponding to correct posture. If the actual head angle deviates from the predetermined head angle, a stimulus may be provided from the mobile device to encourage the user to rotate their head and/or reposition the mobile device such that their actual head angle aligns with the predetermined head angle.
