According to the company, Bebop's OCS continuously takes full seat pressure images real-time, detecting pressure information and movement from the entire seat for all aspects of physical contact between the occupant and the seat. This differs from traditional systems, which simply rely on weight. The sensor is 1mm thick and doesn't have any moving parts.
“Anyone trying to determine a person’s position, size, and seating attitude using only weight is making a faster horse. That technology is now obsolete. You can tell more about a person through a picture than a scale,” said Keith McMillen, BeBop Founder & CEO.
