摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The chair (1) has an armrest (2) in which an operating unit for the operation of an electronic device such as a computer, is integrated. A pressure sensor (3) is arranged for detecting pressure exerted on the armrest. An optical sensor (6) is arranged at the region (5) of surface (4) of the armrest, for detecting the movement and/or position of hand of the operator. A pointer on a graphical user interface of the electronic device is moved based on the determination of position and movement of the hand of operator. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Chair with armrest. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The overall structure of the chair is simplified and the usage convenience of the control panel in the electronic device can be achieved. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawings show the perspective view and side view of the chair. 1 : Chair 2 : Armrest 3 : Pressure sensor 4 : Surface of armrest 5 : Region of surface of armrest 6 : Optical sensor.
