Sears Seating has applied MR technology to their seats in a custom offering to the agricultural and off-highway equipment market. In these markets, MR technology makes an ideal solution because the vibration inputs to operators in these environments are so much larger. Sears offers the technology on its seats as the VRS (Vibration Reduction Suspension) 2000 Seat System. Unlike standard agricultural seats, which compromise shock and vibration control, the VRS 2000 with the MR-enabled system automatically adapts to both the driver's body weight and continually changing levels of shock and vibration, improving operator productivity while reducing fatigue.
