Abstract

The health consequences of prolonged sitting in the office and other work chairs have recently been tried to be alleviated or prevented by the application of modern technologies. Smart technologies and sensors are installed in different parts of office chairs, which enables monitoring of seating patterns and prevents positions that potentially endanger the health of users. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of previous research in the field of the application of smart technologies and sensors built into office and other types of chairs in order to prevent diseases. The articles published in the period 2010-2020 and indexed in WoS CC, Scopus, and IEEE Xplore databases, with the keywords “smart chair” and “sensor chair” were analysed. 15 articles were processed, with their research being based on the use of different types of sensors that determine the contact pressures between the user’s body and stool parts and recognise different body positions when sitting, which can prevent negative health consequences. Analysed papers prove that the use of smart technology and a better understanding of sitting, using various sensors and applications that read body pressure and determine the current body position, can act as preventive health care by detecting proper heart rate and beats per minute, the activity of individual muscle groups, proper breathing and estimates of blood oxygen levels. In the future research, it is necessary to compare different types of sensors, methods used and the results obtained in order to determine which of them are most suitable for the future development of seating furniture for work.

带有传感器的智能办公椅,可以检测坐姿和坐姿习惯
最近,人们试图通过应用现代技术来减轻或防止长时间坐在办公室和其他工作椅上对健康造成的影响。智能技术和传感器安装在办公椅的不同部位,可以监控座位模式,防止可能危及用户健康的姿势。本文的目的是概述以前在办公室和其他类型椅子中内置的智能技术和传感器应用领域的研究,以预防疾病。对2010-2020年间在WoS CC、Scopus和IEEE Xplore数据库中以“smart chair”和“sensor chair”为关键词发表的文章进行分析。研究人员对15篇文章进行了处理,他们的研究基于使用不同类型的传感器,这些传感器可以确定使用者身体和粪便部位之间的接触压力,并识别坐着时不同的身体姿势,从而防止对健康产生负面影响。经过分析的论文证明,使用智能技术和更好地理解坐姿,使用各种传感器和应用程序来读取体压并确定当前的身体位置,可以通过检测适当的心率和每分钟跳动次数、单个肌肉群的活动、适当的呼吸和估计血氧水平来起到预防性保健作用。在未来的研究中,有必要比较不同类型的传感器、使用的方法和获得的结果,以确定哪一种最适合未来工作座椅家具的发展。
