Xiaomi launches heated cushion with sitting reminders in China
Xiaomi has launched the Mijia Heated Posture Support Cushion in China for people who spend long periods sitting at a desk.
The cushion supports the lower back, hips and legs, and includes three adjustable lumbar heat settings.
An infrared sensor tracks sitting time and sends a reminder after 40 minutes, with further alerts at 90 and 120 minutes.
The timer resets if the user leaves the chair for more than two minutes.
The heating shuts off automatically after 15 minutes, and the cushion can run on its built-in battery or while charging.
Its introductory price in China is 186.65 yuan, about $28.
