●●SolidBig BrainSolve My Problem

Reframes chairs around movement cadence instead of static comfort—clever physiology insight.

Strengths
  • •Decouples seat movement from upper body stability—hands and eyes stay fixed.
  • •Brushless gearmotor actuation with split independent seat halves.
  • •Addresses discomfort as lagging signal with proactive timed movement.
Weaknesses
  • •Commercial product landing page, not open source or hackable.
  • •No pricing visible, unclear if this ships today or is pre-order.
