This seating coach app was created through trial and error of the skills that we have learned during the software and electronics section of this class. I had to figure out which commands to pick in order to make the correct sequence to indicate to the individual using the app when they are accurately tilted, when they are not tilted, and when they need to tilt according to a timer, and an orientation sensor. Also, a button was added so the intended user can see the angle that they are tilted at. Personally, I struggled with this app for some time, as it was difficult to figure out exactlt what commands to incorporate, but after some time I understood. This app can be used by individuals who are in a wheelchair, who need to tilt their chairs, in order to take pressure off of the different points that they are sitting on most of the day.
