While back pain is a prevalent issue, it is often unaffordable and inaccessible. That’s why Abglo is here to provide an affordable solution to help you tackle your back pain from home and allow trainers to better aid their clients.
How it works
Strengthening the core is one of the most effective and sustainable ways to strengthen the back, but proper form is essential! Abglo’s silicone sensor detects the position of the user’s back and triggers three forms of feedback to communicate and correct lumbar posture during workouts.
-
The mat vibrates to tell the user when they get in and out of position. A shot buzz indicates the user is in positon. A long buzz indicates the user has slipped out of position.
-
In rehab settings, it can be hard for a trainer to see and correct a client’s posture, so the Abglo mat is equipped with light strips to visually communicate posture to trainers.
-
For additional user feedback, the mat has an optional sound feature that will emit varied tones to communicate when the user is in and out of position.

Why the belly button?
The belly button lines up between the L3 and L4 vertebrae found in the lower back, where the sensor needs to be positioned in order to properly detect the user’s posture.
This silicone sensor fits into the lower back. As the user presses it down, it senses their position and triggers corrective feedback.
The Abglo is fitted with a handle for effortless transport
Raised bars to the sides of the sensor show where to line the belly button up for proper positioning on the mat
Two buttons for power and volume on/off allow for easy, intuitive use
how it works: mat senses position, triggers feedback to communicate to the user - Feedback: vibration (for user), sound (opt), lights (for trainer)
Proper positioning: line belly button up with indicators (explain vertebrae)- also include 3 step graphics
