Creating a world in a workstation

(Credit: Poetic Technologies)

The "G-Tech Neber" chair we featured a few days ago seems ergonomically efficient, no doubt about it. But compared with the "Aura" by Poetic Technologies, it looks like a wooden stool.

Like other high-tech chairs, the Aura caters to its owner's posture: in this case, with a seven-way adjustable chair that can be ordered with inflatable and deflatable cushions. That's only the beginning. Irritated by glare? The entire workstation can be rotated up to 120 degrees. In fact, it can be programmed to rotate 120 degrees every day over eight hours to follow the sun's path--or, in a pinch, in 15 seconds.

As if that's not enough, this uber-workstation controls its own micro-climate, electronically filtering oxygen before delivery and letting its occupant change air settings up to 21.5 times per hour. If any people actually do this, however, we suggest they seriously consider bringing a sweater to work. But if they refuse, the Aura can be ordered with optional radiant heating.

At last, we can finally get rid of those "USB Warmer Gloves."

[Thanks, Marc]

But where is the cup holder?
by myth90045 May 2, 2007 2:24 PM PDT
Neat looking "workstation" but if i am going 120 degrees I will need to drink. yet it doesnt look like there are any cup holders. That means i have to hit the button, make the chair go back down to "normal" get up and get a drink and return to whatever angle i was at. Seems like a lot of work to me!! :)

Good article Where can I get the blocks? I agree, this is a evden eve nakliyat very cool experiment. As to how long evden eve the acrylic can hold the image, permanently. If you mean nakliyat how long the lightening flashes, I would imagine until the block is grounded, the flashes would persist. I would imagine evden eve nakliyat that on could generate a fair amount su deposu of income selling these su deposu Lichtenberg figures. 1 out of 1 people estetik found this comment helpful ankara nakliyat there are many nakliyat lichtenberg figures estetik on the ice near my ankara nakliyat home and they are not drain holes. They are merely the first places that the sun melts the ice, evden eve usually caused by something evden eve nakliyat dark at the center which heats up and starts the melting. I have 40mg of pix if pop sci is interested.
