Abstract:
There is realized a configuration in which, even when pressure is concentrated, the pressure can be adjusted based on accurate and precise detection of pressure distribution, thereby providing sleeping comfort.An air mattress device has a sensor that detects the distribution of pressure applied to an elastic sheet, by means of light emitting parts and light receiving parts of optical fibers uniformly distributed in the elastic sheet. Based on pressure distribution detected by the sensor, the air mattress device adjusts the amount of gas filled in an air mattress. The sensor can be disposed above the air mattress of the air mattress device.
