It will also be like a reclining chair by manipulating the backrest and footrest.


You can move a display freely and have a small meeting.


You can freely adjust the height of the workbench where keyboard and mouse etc can be placed.


If you tilt the arm toward you, you will be in a posture that almost sleeps, and you can see from the image that the woman is working without losing your eyes and without burdening the neck.


The foot placement part can also be adjusted.


It is the controller installed in the main body that adjusts the height and angle of the backrest and workbench.


Move the display with the lever mounted on the arm.

The platform moves so that it slides ... ...
