Adjustable Seat Assembly with Anthropometry-Based Controller

The seat assembly system automatically adjusts itself based on sensor data about occupant anthropometry and activity level without requiring manual intervention. The controller autonomously processes sensor inputs and commands actuators to achieve optimal seating positions, eliminating the need for complex manual adjustment mechanisms while maintaining high adaptability.

The patent replaces manual mechanical adjustment systems with an automated electromechanical system. Sensors, controllers, and actuators substitute for manual operations, enabling the system to adapt to different occupants automatically. This substitution reduces the need for complex manual mechanisms while improving adaptability through electronic control.

The controller serves multiple functions: it processes anthropometry data from sensors, determines optimal seating positions based on activity level, and commands multiple actuators simultaneously. This multi-functionality consolidates what would otherwise require separate systems into a single integrated controller, improving adaptability while limiting the increase in overall device complexity.

The controller acts as an intermediary between sensors and actuators, translating raw sensor data into coordinated actuator commands. This intermediary role simplifies the system architecture by centralizing the decision-making logic, allowing the system to handle multiple sensors and actuators through a single control unit rather than requiring direct connections between all components.
