- Graphene is difficult to make and expensive to purchase
- Graphene would have to be manufactured in bigger sheets and at more affordable prices to make the chair feasible
- In 2010 it cost manufacturers tens of thousands of dollars to manufacture a piece of graphene about the size of a fingernail
- Graphene for SSS 1.0 needs to be purchased to put in the semi-circular cylinder located under the chair
- The seat will be expensive to make in large quantities
- Currently graphene will cost consumers US $70-$90 per square meter
- The SSS 1.0 isn't here today because it takes a lot of time and money to produce it efficiently
- The SSS 1.0 hasn't been invented yet because the materials are so expensive that the seat would be too costly for airlines to purchase
- Tests would have to be run to ensure that the graphene will keep its shape over a long period of time
- A research project would be carried out to see if graphene would work well for the SSS 1.0. We would conduct a plane turbulence simulation over and over again, running the testing for many hours. We would collect data on how well the chair tilts and holds the parallel line.
