FOUND TECHNOLOGY

SMART CHAIR TECHNOLOGY

Sitting is a general activity of the body. A large portion of the day is occupied with activities done while sitting; driving, tranportation, office work, school hours…

Most designers are focused on the ergonomics of sitting, the major improvements are directed at the field of ergonomics mostly at office environment.

One of the projects in smart technology directed at chair design is the augmented smart chair project: It aims to build a smart chair by making it aware of the user's activities (posture, movement, and "sitting habits") and to augment it with feedback mechanisms that assist the user in a friendly manner.

Another project is V. Smart Intelligent Chair : Automatically senses the weight of each user as they sit on the chair and automatically adjusts tension according to the user’s body weight, giving optimum active support, balance
