Abstract: The sofa with hydraulic stand assistance device is a therapeutic device. The sofa with hydraulic stand assistance device is adapted for use with a patient. The sofa with hydraulic stand assistance device is a mobility assistance device. The sofa with hydraulic stand assistance device assists the patient while sitting into and getting up from a chair. The sofa with hydraulic stand assistance device includes a chair structure, a hydraulic structure, and a control circuit. The hydraulic structure and the control circuit mount in the chair structure. The hydraulic structure provides the motive forces necessary to assist the patient in sitting into and getting up from the chair structure. The control circuit controls the operation of the hydraulic structure.

Abstract: A method for providing waypoint data to a vehicle controller. This method may include obtaining a plurality of coordinate locations describing a vehicle route, performing a computation of the vehicle route using said coordinates, obtaining route data describing the route, transforming the route data into coordinate data comprising a plurality of data points expressed in longitude and latitude form, converting the coordinate data into properly-spaced waypoint data, storing the waypoint data in a form accessible to a vehicle controller, and accessing the waypoint data via a vehicle controller. According to an exemplary embodiment, the properly-spaced waypoint data may be created from improperly-spaced data via interpolation. The vehicle controller may control other devices associated with a vehicle, such as an automated voice announcement system or an external display.
