Ford reveals Robutt created to make car seats comfortable

Car manufacturing company Ford has created a new device to help engineers design comfortable products: the Robutt. The robot was invented so that engineers at the company can test the wear and tear that comes with 10 years of driving a new car. It has the ability to sit on a car seat 25,000 times in three weeks, mimicking the effect of a decade of use. The Robutt helped a team designing the new Ford Fiesta create seats that would weather 10 years of use. The Robutt sits on a seat 25,000 times in three weeks.
