Benefits of technology

The patent describes a device made of foam and fabric designed to improve durability and appearance. It has a hinged coupling of two hemispheres that are covered by a fabric web. The fabric web is connected to an extended strap with fasteners, allowing the device to be secured to a structure it is placed upon. The device has a hexagonal shape that offers orthopedic support by aligning the hip and knees and encouraging good posture. It also provides relief to pressure applied on the coccyx bone while sitting.

Problems solved by technology

Frequently, the surfaces offered to this user can be very hard and uncomfortable over this extended period, wherein the individual is forced to stand, stretch, move, or leave the event.
Although these chairs provide additional comfort to a user, they lack additional helpful and useful features.
Although useful, the carrying of an additional item can be cumbersome and undesirable.
