ERGONOMICS
Chair is our most intimate piece of furniture at workplace and what requirements it should fulfil?
“First and foremost, a comfortable chair should be able to adapt to users of different body size and figure, enabling them to sit long hours without causing tiredness and thus, raising work efficiency and quality.”
In view of this, INABA focuses on the “Spinal” Movement.
The spinal column of human turns to S shape when we are standing, which is a relaxed state without causing much burden to our body. However, our pelvis tilts when we sit down. The S shape collapses which exerts burden to our spinal cord and internal organs.
To achieve the ideal comfort while developing “Yera”, the chair has been experimented and tested for multiple times. The chair back mesh is suitable for back structure and the chair seat will not cause squeezing of the thighs, maintaining the S shape of our spinal column when sitting.

3D Smart Sensor,
“Shape Tape”
It is the first time the industry applies 3D Smart Sensor, “Shape tape”, to experiment the efficiency of the chair with ideal comfort.
To realize the goal of an ideal chair, INABA applies “Shape tape” in tests which can accurately detect bending and twisting movement of body. The shape of spinal column of the test subjects of different gender and body size are tested while standing, sitting upright and reclining. In addition, the shape changes of spinal column with and without Lumbar Support is tested. After multiple testing, INABA finally came up with an ideal chair that can maintain the S shape of spinal column of users.

What is
Shape Tape?
It is a 3D smart sensor application of optical fiber. By arranging sensors on human body and connecting them to a special processing system, the bending and twisting movement of human can be detected and tested. It can also detect movement of human and objects and can be applied to Virtual Reality, Ergonomics and Sports Engineering.
INABA attached Shape tape to the back of testing subjects (The area of spinal column) to accurately detect the dynamic shape changes of the spinal column in 3D.

3D Seat to
Disperse Pressure
& Prevent Tiredness
Chair seat with 3D structure can effectively disperse pressure through the weight of ischium on the seat. Moreover, the squeezing sensation is reduced to enable comfort even after long hours of sitting.

Flexible Change to The Chair Structure According to User’s
Body Figure and Posture
Body Figure and Posture
The upper part of the Resin back mesh is relatively firmer while the central part is relatively softer, so that it can deform in shape offering better lumbar protection to our waist which bears the body weight. The back mesh is highly breathable, and it can help maintain an ideal body posture and avoid tiredness even after sitting for long hours.

Air Lumbar
Support
Provide lumbar support and maintain the correct posture
Through experimental and survey data, movement within 120mm area can effectively provide the best lumbar support, lessen the body burden and reduce tiredness which in turn maintain a correct and comfortable posture. Such movement varies from user’s figures and preferences.
The Air Lumbar Support is the most important part of the chair. It provides a firm lumbar protection to user and adjust the support to the back according to users’ movement to alleviate tiredness.
The air pressure of Air Lumbar Support can be adjusted with Air System according to the figure and preference of user. Press the button of increasing pressure, Lumbar Support will expand and it will shrink to release air if you press the button of reducing pressure.
