Now this office chair from Oki is no ordinary chair, since it relies on robotic technologies that are found in Oki's leg-shaped robot, the aptly named "Robot Leg." The thigh area is used right under the seating surface of the chair, and this segment tilts forward when you're not resting your butt on it. When you do, however, it will sink in significantly, while the seat back will change its position to snug the occupant's back to provide the most optimal seating experience possible. There are plans to release several models that cater for different weights, although the current model works with those within the 55kg to 60kg range.
