Sitting Sensation Research

We have been thinking, what kind of chair is a good chair? How to evaluate a chair more scientifically and effectively? To this end, we have collaborated with associations and industry experts to establish the Xihao Ergonomics Research Institute, Laboratory Testing Center, and R&D Center dedicated to developing new sitting sensation technologies. Through research and testing on the interaction between human sitting capacity and seats, as well as their impact on human perception, we evaluate and improve the comfort, support, and ergonomic performance of seats using scientific methods and objective indicators to guide seat design, improvement, and optimization, and provide better sitting experience and health protection.

Sihoo Ergonomic Research Institute

Sihoo established an Ergonomic Technology Research and Development Center in 2012 to lead the innovative research and development of the company's products. In 2016, the Ergonomic Innovation Application Base under Sihoo R&D Center was established, and during the same period, the Ergonomic Testing Center was completed, marking the formal establishment of Sihoo's mature R&D system that integrates design, production, simulation testing, and improvement. In order to fully integrate the company's advantageous resources, Sihoo joined forces with the Shenzhen Association for the Application of Ergonomics (SAEA) to establish the Sihoo Engineering Research Institute in 2019. The Sihoo Institute of Engineering is fully leading the research and development of Sihoo's academic research products, technological applications, talent cultivation, and other work, aiming to build a "leading domestic and internationally renowned" enterprise demonstration research institution based on ergonomic research. Internally serving Sihoo, promoting enterprise technological innovation and product upgrading, and building Sihoo's industry benchmark image; Facing the industry and society externally, we will work together with the Shenzhen Ergonomics Application Association to integrate domestic and foreign advantageous resources, and jointly promote the application and development of engineering furniture.

Sitting Research

How to define a good seat? Experts from Sihoo Research Institute believe that one should start by understanding sitting posture. With the continuous progress of technology, various new devices are applied to people's daily work and life, and sitting posture will also change correspondingly with the changes in equipment and working methods.

Sitting Posture And Seats

Sitting posture is a natural posture of the human body. It can relieve muscle fatigue, reduce energy consumption in the human body, and also help operators adopt more stable postures to perform various delicate and fine motor tasks. However, long-term poor sitting posture can also have many disadvantages to human health, such as lumbar muscle strain, spinal lesions, poor blood circulation, etc. Therefore, a good seat design should not only comprehensively consider the static and dynamic dimensions of the human body, but also provide good support and guidance for users in different sitting positions.

  • 1Reasonably distribute the gravity of the seated person, allowing the muscles to relax

  • The thighs are approximately horizontal, and the feet naturally land on the ground

  • Multi dimensional support for the body, ensuring good work stability

  • Easy to change posture

Unique SPM Seat R&D Feedback System

Assisting research and development design with scientific evaluation, defining seats well
     

  • Technology R&D Center

    Weighted evaluation of professional seating tester scale, quantifying comfort experience A good product experience is the first concern for users. For this purpose, we have hired a team of dozens of trial sitting evaluators to quantify subjective feelings through trial sitting and scientific scale statistics, and submit them to designers for real-time improvement, so as to make the product more resistant to sensory testing

  • Physiological Feedback System

    Using sensors to collect spinal and muscle pressure data for analysis, optimizing the product by collecting multiple body data indicators generated by users through professional equipment, making seat comfort more intuitive.

  • Motion Feedback System

    The trajectory of office sitting posture, the introduction of dynamic balance parameters, and the verification of design, the significance of the existence of most comfortable computer chair is to facilitate work. Even when sitting in a computer chair, we inevitably experience behaviors such as leaning forward, backward, and turning while working. The motion feedback system helps designers fully consider practical application situations
