Air Force veteran and consumer hardware leader joins as the smart seating company expands into aviation and new consumer products Melbourne, Fla. (October 5, 2026) – Kalogon, the trusted leader in seated health, today announced that Marty Evans has joined the company as its first chief technology officer. Evans brings more than 25 years of experience designing and shipping consumer hardware at Microsoft, Meta, Magic Leap and HP, and he'll lead Kalogon's engineering and product development teams as the company brings its smart seating technology to more people who spend hours in a seat, from wheelchair users to pilots and passengers. Evans began his career as a U.S. Air Force avionics technician, maintaining F-16 and F-117A stealth fighters. After earning his electrical engineering degree with top honors, he entered the consumer electronics industry in 1999. He most recently served as VP of engineering at Magic Leap, and before that was director of electrical engineering at Meta's Reality Labs. He has also built hardware at Valve and on Microsoft's Surface product line. He holds more than 20 patents spanning pressure sensing, wireless charging, electromechanical actuation, power management and accessory usability. At Kalogon, Evans will shape the company's technology and lead engineering execution from concept through production as the company grows into new markets. "Joining Kalogon feels like coming full circle, getting closer to the technology again while applying the same principles of empathy-driven design to a new sector," said Evans. "In AR, we explored ways technology could extend someone’s abilities, from helping someone follow a conversation in a noisy room to making visual information easier to see. Adaptive seating calls for the same mindset – understanding what each person needs, then using hardware and thoughtful design to improve their daily experience. Finding a team of passionate engineers, makers and tinkerers doing exactly that, right here in Melbourne, felt like a match made in engineering heaven." For Evans, Kalogon’s aviation work is a return to where his career began. Kalogon's work with the U.S. Air Force offers a preview of what its technology can do in the air. The company has secured multiple SBIR Phase II grants totaling $3.5 million to adapt its seating for B-52 and E-4B aircrews, who can spend 30 to 40 hours in seats designed decades ago. In Air Force testing, Kalogon's cushions reduced peak pressure by 51% and significantly reduced pilot fatigue, results that point to real potential applications in long-haul commercial aviation. "Marty has built some of the most sophisticated consumer devices on the market, and he knows how to make advanced technology disappear into the background of someone's day," said Tim Balz, founder and CEO of Kalogon. "That's exactly what great seating should do. His experience will help us move faster as we take what we've learned from wheelchair users into new places people sit, including the airplane cabin."

The new cushion line introduces a 3D-printed, variable-density lattice technology alongside a dual-density foam option, purpose-built for wheelchair users with significant postural needs Melbourne, Fla. (July 20, 2026) – Kalogon, the market leader in smart seating solutions, today announced the launch of Verro – a new Medicare-coded custom wheelchair cushion line designed for people with significant postural support needs. Available in two models – Verro variable-density lattice (Verro Lattice) and Verro dual-density foam (Verro Foam) – Verro is built for wheelchair users whose bodies require a precise, body-conforming fit that standard cushions can’t deliver, including those with windswept posture, pelvic obliquity, or asymmetry. At the core of Verro Lattice and new to the complex rehab tech market is Kalogon’s patent-pending variable-density lattice technology – a 3D-printed elastomer construction that varies firmness across the cushion surface: firmer where the body needs to be held in position, and softer where pressure needs to be diffused. For those who want more adaptability after fitting, Verro Foam is also available, with a dense foam base and soft foam topper (dual-density). “We kept hearing from clinicians that their most complex patients were falling through the cracks, so we developed a technology that lets us 3D print the cushion with precise, localized control over where the body gets support and where it gets relief,” said Tim Balz, CEO and founder of Kalogon. “With our variable-density lattice, we can create subtle variations across the surface and sides of the cushion that simply aren’t possible with traditional materials. The customization options are hyper-personalized to provide the best comfort, support and fit for every customer.” Verro's Two Cushion Constructions for Diverse Needs: 3D-Printed Variable-Density Lattice Technology and Dual-Density Foam Seating specialists can order Verro in two construction types suited to different user needs and clinical approaches: Verro Lattice is 3D-printed from a high-performance, lightweight elastomer material, in a proprietary variable-density lattice that varies firmness across the surface. The open lattice lets air move freely through the cushion, helping with temperature and moisture management and making the cushion up to two pounds lighter than the average cushion. The material is hydrophobic, so liquids pass through rather than pooling around the client, and the cushion is safe for the top rack of the dishwasher. This variant comes standard with a vapor-permeable outer cover; an incontinence liner is available as an add-on. Verro Foam features a custom-cut dense foam base overlaid with a soft foam topper, creating a custom base with added support. Critically, the base can be carved and adjusted after delivery, giving seating specialists flexibility if a user’s needs change over time. An incontinence liner is included. Together, the two Verro construction options cover a wide range of user needs and clinical preferences. Users who prioritize breathability and temperature regulation tend to do well with the lattice construction. Seating specialists who want the ability to modify after fitting or who are working with users new to contoured seating often prefer foam. Two Ways to Order Verro: 3D Scan or Made-from-Measurement Every Verro cushion starts with a precise capture of the user’s body. Clinicians can order in one of two ways on Launch Pad, Kalogon’s interactive real-time configurator: A 3D scan taken from a physical mold of the user in their desired seated position, offering the most intimate fit and empowering seating specialists to choose the shape that works best Detailed measurements entered directly into Launch Pad, giving seating specialists a familiar, accessible workflow Regardless of which path a clinician chooses, Kalogon ships within 14 days of receiving the order – a fraction of the typical industry turnaround. “Every client is different, and seating specialists need options that reflect that. Verro gives us more ways to match the right solution to each unique person based on their postural support needs, personal preferences and desire for in-field modification,” said Kelly Waugh, MA, PT, ATP, advisor to Kalogon. “That flexibility will allow Kalogon to serve a much wider population of people with complex seating needs than before.” Verro carries the E2609 Medicare code and represents a deliberate expansion of Kalogon’s product line, offering a variety of materials and solutions for a wide range of clients who need custom seating. All cushions are manufactured in-house at Kalogon’s Melbourne, Fla., facility. Clinicians and seating specialists can order Verro by contacting Kalogon at Kalogon.com.

Verro and Orbiter Med are both medicare-coded (E2609) custom wheelchair cushions designed to support complex seating needs. However, each product takes a different approach to customization, posture accommodation and pressure management. The right choice depends on the user’s body shape, postural support needs, pressure redistribution goals, and whether the seated surface should remain consistent or change throughout the day. It’s also important to consider the user’s personal goals and daily functional activities) that may prioritize one choice over the other. What Is Verro? Verro is designed for users who may need greater postural support or accommodation, and a consistent seated surface shaped closely around the body. It may be the better choice for users with more significant postural asymmetries that cannot be fully accommodated by Orbiter Med, as Verro can be created from a shape capture scan for more intimate contact. Verro’s custom shape is built into the base of the cushion, creating a stable design that remains constant during daily use. Because Verro’s seated surface does not actively change, it is well suited for users who benefit from consistency in their cushion design and positioning. Verro is available with two material options: Variable-density lattice is our custom 3d printed cushion that uses Kalogon’s proprietary variable density lattice technology. It supports increased airflow and microclimate regulation in a lightweight custom shaped cushion Dual-density foam provides a dual foam construction, comprised of a machine carved firmer base topped by a layer of immersive foam. This is also a lightweight custom shaped cushion that is easily modifiable in the field. Both Verro material options can be created either from measurements, or from a shape capture scan - providing even more options for your clients. What Is Orbiter Med? Orbiter Med is designed for users who need a more forgiving fit, dynamic pressure redistribution, and the ability to actively customize their seated surface using Kalogon’s patent-pending Air Pressure Management System (APMS). Orbiter Med combines a customized foam base with adjustable air cells. This allows the cushion to provide active customization rather than relying only on the shape of the base. The foam base is made from measurements that allow customization of the depth of contour around the pelvis and thighs, with the pelvic well maintaining a static, symmetrical orientation and shape. Fine tuning adjustment of the surface shape for greater support vs. more immersion is done through the air cells within the Kalogon app. It may be the better choice when pressure redistribution and skin integrity is the primary need or when the user’s seating needs are expected to change. Orbiter Med also allows users to vary the seated surface based on different activities, making it adaptable throughout the day. Verro Does This, While Orbiter Med Does This Verro can be shaped closely around the user’s body to provide a more precise seated surface shape. Orbiter Med allows greater flexibility through its combination of foam and adjustable air cells. Verro can support more significant postural asymmetry, while Orbiter Med supports active pressure redistribution. Verro’s customization is built into the base shape, while Orbiter Med combines a foam base shape with air-cell customization. Verro provides a constant seated surface, while Orbiter Med can change based on the user’s needs or activity. Verro offers lattice or foam material options, while Orbiter Med uses foam with adjustable air cells. Verro can be made from measurements or a shape capture scan, while Orbiter Med is made from measurements only. Verro or Orbiter Med Both cushions offer a custom approach, but the best choice depends on whether the user needs a precise and constant surface or a more adaptable seating system. Every user’s seating needs are different, and Kalogon can help determine which option may be the best fit based on individual goals and priorities.
