Summary

This study checks whether the DeepClinic mobile app can accurately measure body posture compared to a professional system called APECS. About 50 physically active adults aged 18-45 will have their posture photographed from multiple angles. The app's measurements are compared to the reference system, and the test is repeated after one week to see if results are consistent.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If validated, the DeepClinic app could offer a fast, low-cost way to screen posture in clinics, sports, and rehab settings.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage validation study. The app may not prove accurate or reliable enough for real-world use.
