Abstract
An electronic memory seat module having integrated sensors is disclosed. The module is mounted on a seat frame which, in turn, is mounted on a fixed base member. Position sensors are mounted in or on the module. Mechanical linkages are provided between adjustable members belonging to the seat frame and the sensors. The linkages translate movement of the structural members into a motion which can be sensed by the sensors. This sensed position can then be stored by an electronic memory unit for later recall.
