Abstract: An occupant support system includes a first vehicle seat and a second vehicle seat. The second vehicle seat is spaced apart from the first vehicle seat.

Abstract: An occupant support includes a vehicle seat, a sensor coupled to the vehicle seat, and a controller coupled to the sensor. The sensor provides a signal to the controller and the controller processes and responds to the sensed signal. In illustrative embodiments, a controller includes a sensor module, a filter module, and a biometrics module. The sensor module retrieves sensor data indicative of an occupant of a vehicle seat from one or more sensors of a vehicle. The filter module determines a filter function in a frequency range in which useful biological data may be derived. The filter function identifies one or more frequencies of noise in the sensor data and applies the filter function to the sensor data to generate filtered sensor data. The biometrics module determines biometric data associated with the occupant based on the filtered sensor data.

Abstract: An occupant support comprising a vehicle seat that includes a seat back with a seat-back cover arranged to extend around a seat-back cushion and a seat bottom that includes a seat-bottom cover arranged to extend around a seat-bottom cushion. The occupant support further includes a forced air unit configured to provide a pressurized flow of air to at least one of the seat bottom and seat back.

Abstract: A vehicle seat for supporting an occupant in a vehicle. The vehicle seat includes a backrest and a headrest.

Abstract: An occupant support includes a seat bottom and a seat back. The seat bottom is coupled to a floor of a vehicle. The seat back is coupled to the seat bottom to move relative to the seat bottom. The seat back includes a back rest and a headrest coupled to the backrest.

Abstract: A vehicle seat height adjuster is configured to allow for a vertically oriented motor and spindle system. A ring-shaped lift plate allows the motor and spindles to pass through the lift plate, thereby allowing the lift plate to travel closer to the vehicle floor while eliminating the need for levered mechanical armature systems and complex transmission systems that convert motor rotation about a horizontal axis to vertical seat movement. The vehicle seat adjuster also offers pure vertical movement in the direction of the motor axis and has a relatively small footprint due in part to most of the components being located within a perimeter of the lift plate when retracted.

Abstract: An occupant support includes a vehicle seat and a sensor system coupled to the vehicle seat. The sensor system is configured to provide biometric data of an occupant of the vehicle seat.

Abstract: An occupant support comprises a vehicle seat including a seat bottom and a seat back coupled to the seat bottom. The occupant support further comprises a heating system located within the seat back of the vehicle seat. The heating system may be configured to provide a heating sensation to an occupant resting on the vehicle seat.

Abstract: An occupant support adapted for use in a vehicle includes a seat bottom coupled to a floor of the vehicle and a seat back configured to pivot about a seat-back pivot axis relative to the seat bottom between an upright position and a folded-forward position. The occupant support further includes a seat-motion controller configured to control movement of the seat back relative to the seat bottom.

Abstract: A vehicle seat in accordance with the present disclosure includes a seat bottom and a seat back. The seat back is coupled to the seat bottom and arranged to extend in an upward direction away from the seat bottom. The vehicle seat further includes an electronics system.

Abstract: An adjustment mechanism for a vehicle seat includes an actuator and a driven member. The actuator is coupled to the driven member to cause the driven member to move or be freed to move in response to activating the actuator.

Abstract: A system includes multiple capacitive sensors, a multiplexer, a programmable gain amplifier, an oscillator, a switch, and a controller. The sensors are coupled to the multiplexer, the multiplexer is coupled to the switch, and the switch is coupled to the amplifier and the oscillator. The controller may control the multiplexer to select each of the sensors. The controller may control the switch to activate the amplifier or the oscillator. The controller may measure voltage output by the amplifier or frequency output by the oscillator. The system may be included in an occupant support such as a vehicle seat.

Abstract: An occupant-support base includes a seat pan and a seat pad. The seat pan and the seat pad cooperate to support an occupant thereon. The seat pad includes a fixed portion and a movable portion that is configured to move relative to the fixed portion.

Abstract: A portable armrest is manually convertible between a deployed configuration and a folded configuration and includes a lap portion, an arm portion, and a support portion. The support portion vertically spaces the arm portion from the lap portion when the lap portion is positioned on the lap of a seated user with the armrest in a deployed configuration, and the weight of an extended arm of the user is transferred to the lap when the arm is rested on the arm portion. The armrest is formed as a segmented panel including a plurality of rigid segments interconnected into a unitary piece by flexible joints along the perimeter of each segment. The deployed armrest enables users to relax their extended arms while bringing a handheld device into viewing range without lowering their heads. The armrest can be folded into a small packaging space for portability.

Abstract: A vehicle is adapted for movement along a roadway. A cabin of the vehicle is adapted for surrounding and supporting an occupant with movement of the vehicle. Systems of the vehicle control an environment within the cabin.

Abstract: A passenger support includes a vehicle seat and a foundation having a lower track and an upper track. The lower track is coupled to a floor of a vehicle in a fixed position relative the floor. The vehicle seat is coupled to the upper track to slide back and forth relative to the lower track.

Abstract: An occupant support includes a vehicle seat and an occupant support covering. The occupant-support covering may be configured to be selectively installed on the vehicle seat and an option of a user.

Abstract: An occupant support adapted for use in a vehicle includes a sensory system and a control system. The sensor system is configured to generate signals indicative of at least one of a physiological characteristic of the occupant.

Abstract: A vehicle seat includes a seat bottom, a backrest, and a headrest. The vehicle seat may be supplied with power so as to provide a powered experience to the vehicle seat.

Abstract: A passenger support includes a vehicle seat and a foundation frame having a lower track and an upper track. The lower track is coupled to a floor of a vehicle in a fixed position relative the floor. The vehicle seat is coupled to the upper track to slide back and forth relative to the lower track.
