  • Publication number: 20240359597
    Abstract: Increased versatility of a seat with a sensor provided therein is sought for. Disclosed is an in-seat experience system (SYS) including: a seat which includes a seat body (S0), a sensor (pressure sensor PS) provided in the seat body (S0), and a seat controller (100) connected to the sensor and thereby allowed to acquire a measurement value from the sensor; an experience instruction device (smartphone SP) connected to the seat controller (100), configured to notify an occupant seated on the seat body a motion instruction and to store user identification information for use in identifying the occupant; and a server (300) capable of communicating with the experience instruction device.

  • Patent number: 12059976
    Abstract: An in-seat experience system includes: a seat which includes a seat body, a sensor, and a seat controller allowed to acquire a measurement value from the sensor; an experience instruction device connected to the seat controller, configured to notify an occupant seated on the seat body a motion instruction and to store user identification information; and a server capable of communicating with the experience instruction device. The experience instruction device makes a determination based upon a measurement value of the sensor as to whether or not a first condition is satisfied, and to transmit a result of the determination to the server when at least the first condition is satisfied, and the server is allowed to increase a point score stored for the corresponding user identification information with a condition that the result of the determination that the first condition is satisfied is received from the experience instruction device.

  • Publication number: 20240149773
    Abstract: Disclosed is a seat including: sensors which includes a first cushion sensor provided at a seat cushion in a position corresponding to buttocks of an occupant, a second cushion sensor provided at the seat cushion and located farther frontward than the first cushion sensor, a first back sensor provided at a seat back and located in a lower position thereof, and a second back sensor provided at the seat back and located above the first back sensor; and a controller connected to the sensors and thereby allowed to acquire pressure values from the respective sensors. The controller is configured to identify the motion of the occupant based on outputs of at least two sensors of the first cushion sensor, the second cushion sensor, the first back sensor, and the second back sensor.
