Abstract

See full text

A seating mat providing enhanced grip and posture correctional features includes an upper surface for supporting a user when seated and an array of flexible papillae extending from the upper surface and positioned around a focus area on the upper surface. Each papilla includes a tapered projection with a curvature such that at the tip end of each projection the longitudinal axis of the projection lies at an acute angle relative to the upper surface. The papillae are positioned such that all the tips are directed towards the focus area. The shape and positioning of the papillae encourage a user to reference themselves centrally on the focus area and tend to grip the user's thighs to prevent slipping.
