Patent ID: 7422285

Claim:
A vehicle seating system for reducing user fatigue, comprising: a seat mountable in a vehicle having a seat back and a seat bottom; at least two powered seat adjustment actuators including a seat back actuator to incline the seat back and a seat bottom actuator to tilt the seat bottom, each movable between a respective first position and a respective second position, for altering the seating position formed by said seat to reduce positional fatigue; wherein said powered seat adjustment actuators reposition said seat to different seating positions with a slow movement average of less than about 10 centimeters per second between said first positions and said second positions; and an electrical controller for activating movement of said powered seat adjustment actuators, said electrical controller having a control period; wherein said controller automatically activates said slow movement average of said powered seat adjustment actuators between said first and said second positions to incline the seat back forward and said slow movement average of said seat bottom actuator to tilt the seat bottom upward, and automatically activates said slow movement average of said seat back actuator to incline the seat back backward and said slow movement average of said seat bottom actuator to tilt the seat bottom downward to reduce positional fatigue.
