Abstract: A vehicle seat system includes a seat back. A seat cushion is positioned proximate to the seat back. The seat cushion includes: a first side configured when upwardly directed for supporting an adult passenger; and a second side oppositely facing from the first side. The second side is configured when upwardly directed for supporting a child passenger and includes: an elevated face positioned proximate to the seat back; and a lower elevation face forward of the elevated face at a lower elevation than the elevated face when the second side is upwardly directed. The seat cushion is releasable and rotatable to configure the seat cushion with either the first side or the second side upwardly directed.

Abstract: A head restraint for a vehicle seat is provided. In one embodiment, the head restraint includes a body defining an exterior surface, where the exterior surface of the body is divided into one or more touch zones. The head restraint also includes a material configured to generate a variable resistance in response to receiving a user input. The material located underneath the exterior surface of the head restraint where the one or more touch zones are located. The head restraint also includes one or more actuation mechanisms configured to move the head restraint relative to the vehicle seat. Finally, the head restraint includes a control module in electrical communication with the material and the one or more actuation mechanisms, wherein the control module executes instructions to receive the variable resistance from the material and determine at least one command signal.
