Abstract
A seating system includes a seat assembly, an electronic control unit (ECU), and an actuator connected to the seat. The ECU may be configured to obtain actuator information associated with operating the actuator. The ECU may be configured to associate the actuator information with a user profile of a user of the seat. A method of operating a seating system may include receiving, via a remote server, a ride request including a user profile, operating an actuator of a seat of the seating system, obtaining actuator information corresponding to the actuator of the seat, and/or associating the actuator information with the user profile.
Claims20
A seating system, comprising:
- a seat assembly including a seat;
- an electronic control unit (ECU);
- and
- an actuator connected to the seat;
- wherein the ECU is configured to obtain actuator information associated with operating the actuator;
- and
- the ECU is configured to associate the actuator information with a user profile of a user of the seat.
A seating system, comprising:
- a seat assembly including a first seat and a second seat;
- and
- an ECU connected to the seat assembly;
- wherein the first seat corresponds to a first level of seat preference and the second seat corresponds to a second level of seat preference;
- the first seat includes a first actuator assembly;
- the second seat includes a second actuator assembly;
- the first actuator assembly includes more actuators than the second actuator assembly;
- the ECU is configured to obtain a request from a remote server;
- the request includes a user profile;
- and
- the ECU is configured to obtain actuator information associated with operation of at least one of the first actuator assembly and the second actuator assembly, and associate the actuator information with the user profile.
A method of operating a seating system, the method comprising:
- receiving a ride request via a remote server, the ride request including a user profile;
- operating an actuator of a seat of the seating system;
- obtaining actuator information corresponding to the actuator of the seat;
- and
- associating the actuator information with the user profile.
