Abstract
A vehicle seat includes a base and a frame, the position of which relative to the base is adjustable by an adjustment device having at least one connecting rod articulated to the base and to the frame, the seat further including a device for measuring the distance between the base and the frame. The measuring device has an angular position sensor mounted on the base or on the frame and an arm articulated on the angular position sensor and moving in rotation when the connecting rod is moved in rotation, the angular position sensor determining the distance between the frame and the base as a function of the angle of rotation of the arm.
