Intelligent automated chair and methods of using the same

Abstract

An intelligent automated chair that is configured to have uploaded various operating models to run a sequence of patterns that cause the intelligent automated chair to alternate between various positions. An intelligent automated chair system configured to receive data from various inputs including user input, sensors, biosensors, historical usage, profile, and others to generate a recommended operating model for the intelligent automated chair. An intelligent automated chair system running an operating model that is interruptible manually by a user or as a result of sensed date, which can alter the pattern or parameters of the operating model.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An automated chair comprising:
 a vertical support;   a horizontal support; and   an automated control assembly housed and integrated within the horizontal support.   
     
     
         2 . The automated chair of  claim 1  further comprising a base portion. 
     
     
         3 . The automated chair of  claim 2  wherein the vertical support extends from the base portion. 
     
     
         4 . The automated chair of  claim 1  wherein the horizontal support interfaces with the vertical support. 
     
     
         5 . The automated chair of  claim 1  further comprising a right leaf connected to at least one of the automated control assembly and the horizontal support. 
     
     
         6 . The automated chair of  claim 5  wherein the right leaf is configured to be moved in at least one of a horizontal direction and a vertical direction. 
     
     
         7 . The automated chair of  claim 6  wherein the right leaf is configured to be moved by a motor in response to an input to alter between at least one of the horizontal direction and the vertical direction. 
     
     
         8 . The automated chair of  claim 1  further comprising a left leaf connected to at least one of the automated control assembly and the horizontal support. 
     
     
         9 . The automated chair of  claim 8  wherein the left leaf is configured to be moved in at least one of a horizontal direction and a vertical direction. 
     
     
         10 . The automated chair of  claim 9  wherein the left leaf is configured to be moved by a motor in response to an input to alter between at least one of the horizontal direction and the vertical direction. 
     
     
         11 . The automated chair of  claim 1  wherein the automated control assembly is configured to receive input data from a sensor. 
     
     
         12 . The automated chair of  claim 11  wherein the one or more sensors are biosensors that are configured to send biosensed data to a processing unit of a cloud-based system. 
     
     
         13 . The automated chair of  claim 12  wherein the processing unit is configured to generate an automated operating model and communicate the automated operating model to the automated control assembly. 
     
     
         14 . The automated chair of  claim 13  wherein the automated operating model includes parameters about a pattern of automatically shifted positions of the automated chair. 
     
     
         15 . The automated chair of  claim 1  wherein the automated control assembly is configured to create an adjustment to a portion of the automated chair. 
     
     
         16 . The automated chair system of  claim 1  wherein the automated control assembly further comprises a control system and a motor. 
     
     
         17 . The automated chair of  claim 1  wherein the automated control assembly is configured to receive and execute an operating model. 
     
     
         18 . The automated chair of  claim 17  wherein after executing the operating model, the automated control assembly can be interrupted. 
     
     
         19 . The automated chair of  claim 18  wherein an interruption can be a result of sensed information. 
     
     
         20 . The automated chair of  claim 19  wherein the automated control assembly is configured to use the sensed information to update the operating model.
