Throughout the vessel, specialized memory seating systems have been implemented. These systems monitor the stresses upon the body of the crewmember presently utilizing them and adjust the contact points with the crewmember to minimize physical stresses. All station seating and this material affects standard seating in personnel quarters. The design is such that is can self adjust to allow for non-humanoid crewmembers. The standard bedding and medical bio beds are also adjusted in this manner. This has proven to reduce fatigue and discomfort resulting from prolonged duty shifts. The conceptualization of advanced ergonomic design is further implemented in the layouts and design of the personnel quarters on the ship. Each individual’s quarters are ergonomically designed to his or her unique specifications. The height and shape of interactive systems, the design of the shelving and storage facilities, and the layout of the waste management system are all adjusted to the unique requirements of the compartment owner. Even habitation shape and colour are carefully implemented to create an environment in harmony with its occupant.
