Apparatus and method for evaluating a seat by using body pressure distribution
First Claim
1. An apparatus for evaluating a seat by using body pressure distribution, the apparatus comprising:
- a body grid generator configured to generate body grids corresponding to body pressure data, which is measured while a driver is seated on a seat of a vehicle, based on the body pressure data and body information of the driver;
a pressure analyzer configured to divide the body grids to a plurality of body grid areas based on body areas of the body pressure data and analyze the body pressure data included in the plurality of body grid areas;
a pressure evaluator configured to evaluate a body pressure for the seat based on the analyzed body pressure data of the plurality of body grid areas, and evaluate a hugging feeling of the driver for the seat based on the evaluated body pressure; and
an interface unit configured to display the body pressure data and the body grids on a display screen,wherein the body grids are displayed such that the body grids overlap a screen of the body pressure data.

13. A method for evaluating a seat by using body pressure distribution, the method comprising:
-
generating, by a body grid generator, body grids corresponding to body pressure data, measured while a driver is seated on a seat of a vehicle, based on the measured body pressure data and body information of the driver; dividing, by a pressure analyzer, the body grids into a plurality of body grid areas based on body areas of the body pressure data and analyzing the body pressure data included in the plurality of body grid areas; evaluating, by a pressure evaluator, a body pressure for the seat based on the analyzed body pressure data of the plurality of the body grid areas, and evaluating a hugging feeling of the driver for the seat based on the evaluated body pressure; and displaying the body pressure data on a display screen, and displaying the body grids such that the body grids overlap the screen of the body pressure data. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
