Algorithm Design Attributes / Comfort Motion Technologies Software

Once activated CMT software runs continuously in a repeating 36 minute cycle until manually shut off or the vehicle is shut off.

The preset seat positions are designed to maximize the transfer of weight in the seat with minimized movements. This is accomplished using a movement pattern, starting at the occupant’s preferred seat position, home position, then combining the seat pan forward tilt with seat back recline, open position, then combining seat pan rear tilt with seat back incline, closed position.

The seat movements are in 3 minute intervals with changes in lumbar support to add an additional and effective way to redistribute weight between seat movements. The movements are intentionally in a cadence or rhythm which the human body can anticipate and appreciate. This decreases the recognition of the movements with each cycle and allows the seat to quietly cycle through its movements during a drive.

Preprogrammed seat positions and lumbar support positions can be modified using the manual power seat controls to over-ride the preset settings while CMT software is on. These personal preferred settings will be stored and used and can be modified at any time using this manual override method.

The algorithm is paused during any braking event and automatically resumes following a brief pause once the brake is released.
