Powered recliner chairs, assemblies for use in the chairs, and components for use in the assemblies are provided. Electrical systems for use in the chairs, and components for use in the electrical systems are provided. Control systems and methods for operating powered recliner chairs are also provided. Any given chair may be locally and/or remotely controlled.

An occupant support system is disclosed for controlling a computer-generated representation of an object, comprising: (i) a support device comprising a plurality of support members configured to support an occupant, and a corresponding plurality of independently movably supported suspension systems such to provide at least one independent motion selected from vertical, lateral, tilt and azimuthal motions and longitudinal roll motion of the support members. The support system further comprises (ii) a plurality of sensors which are operatively coupled with the support members and configured to measure a parameter which is indicative of an input provided by the occupant, while occupying the device, in a hands-free manner and to produce a signal, wherein the input changes a state of the support device; (iii) a memory module comprising computer-executable instructions; and (iv) a processor operative to receive the produced signal and determine a state of the occupant support device based on the produced signal and the computer-executable instructions, and to provide instructions for controlling the computer-generated object representation.

An in-seat experience system includes: a seat which includes a seat body, a sensor, and a seat controller allowed to acquire a measurement value from the sensor; an experience instruction device connected to the seat controller, configured to notify an occupant seated on the seat body a motion instruction and to store user identification information; and a server capable of communicating with the experience instruction device. The experience instruction device makes a determination based upon a measurement value of the sensor as to whether or not a first condition is satisfied, and to transmit a result of the determination to the server when at least the first condition is satisfied, and the server is allowed to increase a point score stored for the corresponding user identification information with a condition that the result of the determination that the first condition is satisfied is received from the experience instruction device.

Increased versatility of a seat with a sensor provided therein is sought for. Disclosed is an in-seat experience system (SYS) including: a seat which includes a seat body (S0), a sensor (pressure sensor PS) provided in the seat body (S0), and a seat controller (100) connected to the sensor and thereby allowed to acquire a measurement value from the sensor; an experience instruction device (smartphone SP) connected to the seat controller (100), configured to notify an occupant seated on the seat body a motion instruction and to store user identification information for use in identifying the occupant; and a server (300) capable of communicating with the experience instruction device. The experience instruction device is configured to make a determination based upon a measurement value of the sensor as to whether or not a first condition is satisfied, and to transmit a result of the determination to the server (300) when at least the first condition is satisfied, and the server is allowed to increase a point score stored for the corresponding user identification information with a condition that the result of the determination that the first condition is satisfied is received from the experience instruction device.
