Innovative vehicle seat with bio-inspired X-shaped passive-damping system that suppresses ~80% of whole-body vibrations with <1 Hz resonant frequency—better than all available systems for long-haul drivers.
Vehicle vibration is the main cause of back pain and other whole-body vibration (WBV) syndrome of professional bus/truck drivers. Therefore, a cost-effective high-performance anti-vibration seat matters not only to the health of professional drivers but also to the traffic and operation safety.
