Personal Comfort Systems (PCS) is a newly formed company that manufactures and sells a patented chair for office environments. This “Hyper Chair” dramatically improves worker comfort and significantly lowers energy use in buildings. Developed by UC Berkeley’s Center for the Built Environment and profiled by ABC News, this new technology marks a revolutionary approach to comfort and efficiency. PCS is a member of the prestigious and extraordinarily successful incubator/accelerator: SkyDeck. Backed by such solid industry and research organizations, PCS is poised to become the next industry leader in “Comfort you Control”. Never before has there been a solution for both energy efficiency and personal comfort that is affordable, portable, and fully functional in the cloud with bluetooth and sMAP technology.
