ADAPTIVE SEAT MASSAGE SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18079645 titled 'ADAPTIVE SEAT MASSAGE SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an adaptive seat massage system that includes a massage module, a pressure measurement module, and a control module. The system provides a massage function in multiple regions of a seat, detects pressure applied by a user in these regions, and determines whether to operate the massage module based on the pressure measurements received.
- The massage module provides a massage function in multiple regions of a seat.
- The pressure measurement module detects pressure applied by a user in these regions and transmits corresponding pressure measurement signals.
- The control module determines whether to operate the massage module in at least one region based on the pressure measurement signals received.
- When the massage module is operated in at least one region, the control module determines the operating mode based on the pressure measurements and transmits a control signal to the massage module to control its operation.
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in various seating systems, such as car seats, office chairs, and home furniture, to provide users with a customized and adaptive massage experience.
Problems Solved
1. Provides targeted massage therapy based on user's pressure points. 2. Offers a personalized and comfortable massage experience for users.
Benefits
1. Enhanced comfort and relaxation for users. 2. Improved blood circulation and reduced muscle tension. 3. Customizable massage experience based on user's preferences and needs.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Adaptive Seat Massage System: Enhancing Comfort and Relaxation in Seating Solutions"

Original Abstract Submitted
An adaptive seat massage system and a method of controlling the same include a massage module providing a massage function in a plurality of regions of a seat; a pressure measurement module detecting pressure applied to the seat by a user in the regions of the seat and transmits pressure measurement signal corresponding to respective regions among the plurality of regions; and a control module determining whether to operate the massage module in at least one region based on the pressure measurement signal received from the pressure measurement module, determining, when the massage module is operated in the at least one region, an operating mode of the massage module in the at least one region based on the pressure measurement signal, and transmitting a control signal corresponding to the determined operating mode to the massage module to control an operation of the massage module in the at least one region.
