Abstract: Equipment and processes generate a seating solution by obtaining occupant data, calculating body dimensions from the occupant data, and calculating a best-fit body arrangement for an occupant. Occupant data may be obtained in various ways using available computational devices and software or by manually measuring the relevant dimensions on the occupant. A user interface for inputting occupant metrics and/or occupant measurements may be provided in a mobile terminal included in the vehicle or separate from the vehicle, thus giving users increased flexibility while maximizing simplicity and usability for the user or other personnel obtaining the data. Once an occupant's best-fit body arrangement is determined, it may be altered by changing the predetermined criteria to achieve optimum comfort, safety, and therapeutic benefit as well as used for providing improved comfort on a continuous basis and/or in response to detected or predicted vehicle, road, or atmospheric conditions.

Abstract: A vehicle seating assembly comprises a seat having a plurality of air chambers disposed between a seat support and an elastomeric foam layer. The air chambers further comprise a primary chamber in fluid communication with a main chamber, and a secondary chamber in fluid communication with a supplemental chamber, wherein air is displaced from the main chamber to the primary chamber and air is displaced from the secondary chamber to the supplemental chamber when the lower seat is in a loaded condition. Air is displaced from the primary chamber to the main chamber and air is displaced from the supplemental chamber to the secondary chamber when the lower seat is in an unloaded condition.
