Nobody likes getting wet, and it is awful to sit on a chair that is wet and damp. Public benches and seats that do not dry fast are creating inconvenience for people. So, what if there is a bench that is available for use right after the rain stops? Z-BENCH is a sensor embedded bench that can sense if it is raining and rotates itself to avoid water accumulation on the seating surface.
