About Rt9000 Massage Chair

RT9000 is a massage chair designed for use by all age groups. Multifunctional scissor doors, inspired by supercars, raise the armrests so users can enter and leave the seat easily and so the arms can be stretched. A dynamic split pressure relief system moves the legs and feet while the arms are extended, simulating postures such as a spacewalk. Sixty-four sets of airbags support blood circulation, and three rows of rollers in the base massage the feet. The chair identifies body parts from body curves and adjusts the massage intensity automatically.

Design Challenge
The challenge lies in how to achieve targeted massage while simultaneously allowing for arm lifting and stretching, as well as independent leg and foot movements, to ensure full body relaxation. RT9000 simulates stretching postures like spacewalk and jump while providing massage service, standing out from the largely homogeneous market. It offers an intelligent, comprehensive personalized full body massage solution, to effectively alleviate common stress and health problems in modern life.
Research
Traditional massage chairs typically focus on the back of the torso and legs, neglecting the need for limb stretching, which fail to meet demands of the entire body, and always let users down due to outdated operational mechanisms and dull function configuration. To address that, RT9000 integrates multifunctional scissor doors with a dynamic massage system, to innovatively achieve arm and leg pulling, thereby realizing comprehensive full body relaxation and refreshment via professional massage.
Inspiration
Inspired by supercars, the design team integrated scissor doors into the massage chair, whereby the armrests can be raised to make it easy for users to get in or out of the massage chair and help to realize a new function of arm pulling, striking a balance between ease of use and practicality.
Project Duration
The product was developed in October 2021 in Shanghai, and launched in December 2023 in China.
Operation Flow
RT9000 is able to precisely identify different body parts based on the user’s body curves, and automatically adjust massage intensity. The dynamic split pressure relief system makes possible simultaneous leg and foot movements and arm stretching. Its combination with 64 sets of airbags promotes blood circulation to improve health of users. The base of the product is equipped with three rows of rollers and supports multiple modes to promote blood circulation in the feet via massage.
