In the early 2000s, The September 11 attacks triggered wild swings in the U.S. stock market, and the U.S. auto industry, which relies heavily on the financial sector, began its winter. At the same time, the oil crisis also swept into the United States, and the auto industry began to collapse.
However, a luxury car seat company came up with the idea of adding four wheels to their fancy car seats.
So in 2006, gaming chair was made by them which is combined by the luxury car product and home products .
Soon, other luxury car seat companies also began to layout e-sports chair business.
However, just because these "pioneers" in the gaming chair industry used to make luxury car seats, can we call gaming chair a luxury? Of course not.
When it comes to gaming chairs, we will think of ergonomic chairs. To put it bluntly, the gaming chair is with a package of e-sports shell, or more directly called a package of cool shell, price friendly version of the ergonomic chair.
So where did the ergonomic chair come from? Its history dates back to 1973. At the time, NASA researchers found that astronauts in space always held a slightly crouched position while resting, a position called the neutral Body position (NBP).
NASA has found that in microgravity, the neutral position puts the least strain on the muscles, which is why it has become a uniform movement for astronauts to relax and rest. Soon this movement was quantified by data, and became the origin of the ergonomic chair.
NASA's research led to the creation of the world's first mass-marketed ergonomic chair in 1994. At that time, the major purchasers of ergonomic chairs were enterprises, schools and governments. Moreover, due to the price, not many customers could afford such chairs. Some enterprises also bought them for bosses and senior leaders. Ergonomic chair is a real luxury.
Evolution of the gaming chair, although the target customers are serious public, but the "luxury" is also engraved in the bones.
