Abstract :
Tested the body pressure distribution between human body and seat surface by using the measurement of body pressure, imported the data into three-dimensional software and changed it to be point form that can be edited. It analyzed the distribution of points and changed them into a surface, got a surface fits body buttock and used it to design a new inflexible chair. The seat surface of this chair can disperse the pressure of body buttocks to avoid excessive local pressure that cause discomfort to our body, meets people´s comfortable needs on the inflexible seat.
