The article presents a description of sitting posture monitoring system, built on Raspberry_Pi_3b, Tact Switch buttons, a prototype board and a rubber mat. RaspberryPi connected to the sensors communicated with a personal computer. This allows on the one hand to immediately inform the seated about the appearance of no symmetry of the position on the chair and managing the time of sitting and breaks on the other. The proposed system ensures identification of the degree of incorrect seating during work and gives the opportunity to improve the user's posture, which affects many topics related to health and work efficiency. System possesses a graphical user interface. During system operation, monitoring data is collected and can be used for further research towards an optimal impact on the user to get rid of the faulty sitting habits.
