A seat platform is carried by the seat bottom portion, and includes a non-slip upper surface segment positioned over a leveling support segment configured to sit atop a seat bottom of the seat. The leveling support segment includes a lower conformable compartment configured to conformably interface with the seat bottom and level the non-slip upper surface segment there above. The non-slip upper surface segment is configured to hold food containers and prevent sliding thereof. A plurality of holders are carried by the seat back portion of the seat cover and configured to hold the associated items. A drink holder may be coupled to a front of the seat platform and configured to securely hold a plurality of drinks.

Safety systems for modular seating

A safety system for a vehicle includes a work table, an airbag, and a controller that includes a processor. The work table is disposed in an extended position and is movable to a reaction position and a stowed position. The processor is configured to receive information indicative of a vehicle event. The processor is further configured to send a command to deploy the airbag based on the information indicative of the vehicle event. When deployed, the airbag expands to abut a bottom surface of the work table and move the work table from the extended position to the reaction position such that the bottom surface of the work table in the reaction position serves as a reaction surface for the airbag.
