Joystick chair is an input device for interaction between the user and computer. It enables the movement of the user in games. The invention is used by placing feet on the platform (3) and sitting or leaning on the seat (23). Command for turning is achieved by rotating the seat (23), either to the left or to the right. Command for forward movement is issued by pulling the left or right controller (36, 41) with fingers, while the command for backward movement is issued by pushing the left or right controller (36, 41) away by palms. Control handles for lateral movement (49, 56) are separated from the forward-back controls that are located on the controllers (36, 41). Other commands are achieved with buttons on the left and right controller and they are accessible with thumbs. The software allows the modifications of all available actions of the invention.

A work chair is provided herein a worker wears a pelvis belt in a transverse direction from both sides of a cushion chair so as to surround the pelvis, while simultaneously wearing a safety belt between both legs and along the front of the pelvis belt in a longitudinal direction by pulling the lower side of the cushion chair, thus allowing the centering position of the cushion chair to be firmly held against the buttocks around the anus, even when the worker repeatedly sits down and stands up and waddles, and maximizing convenience of use. Moreover, by correctly positioning the cushion chair, the worker can be prevented from filling on his or her buttocks while working, thus ensuring safety during use. Furthermore, the work chair ensures that the cushion chair is centered around the anus when the safety belt is worn, whereas an attachment/detachment ring is returned upward and fitted into a collecting ring when the safety belt is not worn. Accordingly, the length of the safety belt itself is simply reduced to be small, thus preventing safety accidents. Also, the safety belt is prevented from haphazardly hanging out when storing the work chair, thus ensuring tidiness when the work chair is stored.
