Abstract	In modern smart environments, automation of office furniture ensures greater efficiency, organization, and energy efficiency. The paper presents the design of an Android-based IoT smart chair system with real-time obstacle avoidance, multi-chair synchronization, and power-efficient control to enable completely autonomous self-parking chairs. Unlike traditional systems that use basic triggers, the design leverages ultrasonic and infrared sensors for environmental sensing and accurate navigation. The chairs are connected using the MQTT communication protocol to allow them to coordinate their movements through a local edge computing hub, minimizing latency and maximizing responsiveness.
