Abstract :
In this paper, we use Xsensor Pressure imaging systems to test dynamic pressure distribution data of human body while the cushion of assistive chair Flip. And we make a initial subjective comfort survey on the buttocks, thigh and knee of Subjects. Based on the above, we have analyzed the dynamic change of average pressure in rigidity condition, and investigated cushion dynamic comfort. It provides a reference for the design and comfortable research of assistive chair.
