Abstract
A humidity-responsive seat control device for a vehicle employs a self-transforming film including a kind of biomaterial configured to operate to be opened through gradual shrinkage thereof when humidity of a seat cover or humidity inside of the seat cover increases while operating to be closed through gradual expansion thereof when the humidity of the seat cover or the humidity inside of the seat cover decreases, thereby being capable of not only achieving smooth air ventilation in an area where a body portion of a seat occupant contacts the seat cover, but also automatically adjusting an amount of air discharged outwards through the self-transforming film in accordance with humidity.
