We already have cars with self-parking technology but now Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. has taken that technology to a whole new format with the creation of the first-ever “Intelligent Parking Chair,” concept. The development of this chair was inspired by the self-parking technology and has been designed to automatically move into a set position.

The chair is equipped with a special roller that allows the chair to rotate 360 degrees. This roller is digitally connected to a special system made up of four cameras placed in the ceiling of the office. These cameras provide a bird’s-eye view to help guide the chairs into their proper position using a wireless transmission.

See how this new system has made pushing in your chair at the end of the day obsolete for some Japanese businessmen in the video below!
