About
the founders
ADAM PETERVARY, CEO-Pianist
As a classical pianist, I am permanently confronted by the shortcomings of piano benches that do not provide sufficient support for the incredible intricacy that piano playing demands. My desire to understand the physical aspects of piano playing technique led to the invention of the revolutionary functions of the Petervary Smart Piano Bench.

DR. JENO PALI, CO-FOUNDER, MEdical biologist
Drawing on my work as a medical biologist, brain researcher, and inventor of intelligent neuroprosthesis and stereoscopic spatial vision tests, my main motivation in the context of this development is to determine the optimal spatial movement of the pianist’s body using the Petervary Smart Piano Bench and to obtain a more profound understanding of the spatial coordination of the artist’s vision, hearing, and movement.
