Interior innovations en route

摘要

Mechanical-only technologies are gaining favor in one supplier's portfolio as a way to offer automakers a low-cost alternative for bringing innovations into vehicle interiors. Johnson Controls' EZaxis Seating only requires a handle pull to automatically bring the seat bottom up to the seatback while at the same time rotating the seat. The patent-pending technology deals with the "functionality of handle to cables and the rotation off a single axis," said Ornela Zekavica, lead engineer for the U.S.-developed EZaxis Seating.
