AutoChair is an entrepreneurial proof of concept for a money-saving-yet-luxurious-and-eco-friendly smart heated and cooled chair.

The concept and prototype are summarized in this presentation. (Check the slides' notes for more information.)

The concept is pitched in more detail in this proposal.

Prototype Features

switch between 3 profiles
- a "no tag" one that doesn't synchronize or remember settings between uses
- two tagged profiles that do synchronize
  - synchronized settings will persist across even complete deletion and recreation of the AVD
adjust temperature in all three profiles
- observe as that changes the displayed temperature
  - changes color at certain temperature intervals
  - bound to a 40-95 degree (Fahrenheit) range
adjusting ambient temperature sensors (in AVD settings) will also change the number displayed for ambient temperature in the app
- when switching tags, observe that the remembered temperature is modified based on the ambient temperature sensed
if running on a real device, physical NFC tags can be used instead of the profiles
