It is a service product that has pressure-sensitive sensors, so it can see the position of the student’s hands and feet, center of gravity, and balance. As you can see, red is where the pressure is strong, and other colors are where the pressure is light, so you can see the balance and other information through it. Our service also supports remote scenario, so even if the teacher is far away, you can see what is happening on the yoga mat like this and can give accurate lessons. In addition, the data is also recorded, so you can see how your yoga lesson has changed after 3 months or 6 months, see the before and after progressed.
