Canada engineer creates device to help you breathe better

The Hindustan Times highlighted a smart belt developed by UBC mechanical engineering graduate Cindy Gu.

The wearable device is based on yoga and aims to promote a mindful state of mind through steady breathing. Gu, a certified yoga instructor, said she was inspired by her yoga practice.

The device is expected to be available by December next year.

Gu’s invention was also featured on CBC’s Our Vancouver show June 4 and on City TV May 26.
