A device for reducing a kinetosis-related disorder in a driving mode of a vehicle includes a vehicle seat with a headrest and an actuator system. The vehicle seat and/or the headrest is adjustable by the actuator system to position the headrest relative to a head of an occupant on the vehicle seat. A support region of the headrest includes a material which is elastically switchable and the material is solidifiable when a pressure is exerted on the material such that the material stiffens when the head of the occupant sinks into the support region.

The invention relates to a vehicle seat (2) for reducing kinetosis-related disorders of an occupant (1) on the vehicle seat (2) during driving of a vehicle having an automatically moveable headrest (2.2) and a seat belt assigned to the vehicle seat (2). In accordance with the invention, the vehicle seat (2) and/or the headrest (2.2) move for acceleration compensation or for acceleration reduction, and/or a connection of the occupant (1) to the vehicle seat (2) is increased at least by means of the seat belt before the onset of acceleration.

A system and method for determining whether a passenger is seated in a seating area and, based at least in part on detecting the passenger, engaging or disengaging a flap in a headrest. Such a headrest may span multiple seats so that a single headrest is used by multiple passengers. Each of one or more flaps in the single headrest may then be configured by the passenger to provide each passenger with their own privacy and comfort. By actively controlling the state of the flap, a uniform passenger experience may be created so that the flap is in the same state upon a passenger entering the vehicle. Further, examples of the headrest are designed and configured to couple directly, or indirectly, to a vehicle body, such that the headrest does not couple directly to a seat or passenger seating area.

A method for fabricating custom seat bolsters includes receiving a first image of a user in a first pose and a second image of the user in a second pose. The method further includes generating a 3D body scan model based on at least the first image of the user and the second image of the user. The method further includes determining a design for a set of seat bolsters for the user based on the 3D body scan model. The method further includes providing the set of seat bolsters for the user based on the determined design.

A neck support for a backrest including a base for attachment to the backrest, a shield that is movable relative to the base and in use is at least sectionally movable in the direction of a user in order to support the neck of a user, and at least one pivoting element that connects the base to the shield via a slider that is shiftably mounted on the base.

A vehicle head restraint includes a head restraint support, a first head restraint member fixedly coupled to the head restraint support, and a second head restraint member attached to the first head restraint member. The second head restraint member is selectively moveable relative to the first head restraint member.
