Welcome to Analyst Voice, a technical platform founded in Jan 2026 and run by an independent Mechanical Engineer, providing technical guides on automotive seat systems, homologation standards, and best CAD practices and engineering skills required for plastic product development.
The idea behind Analyst Voice came from the difficulties faced by engineering professionals in their early careers, like lack of technically written information regarding the automotive seat domain, homologation standards such as ECE and FMVSS, and unaffordable/costly resources for learning plastic design can make it difficult for students and professionals in the early stages of their careers.

Hi, I’m Siddhant Patil, a diploma holder and graduate in Mechanical Engineering from New Institute of Technology, Kolhapur, and KITS College of Engineering, Kolhapur, respectively. I currently work as a Design Engineer in the automotive seat systems domain and have 3 years of industry experience in Pune.
Why this platform exists
As a Mechanical Engineer working in the automotive seat design domain, I also noticed a lack of practical and beginner-friendly technical information available on the internet regarding:
- Basics of automobile seats, their sub-assemblies, and parts
- Important homologation standards and testing procedures
- Technical terminologies such as H-Point, R-Point, torso angle, etc.
- Plastic design basics, design processes, and methodologies
- Draft analysis, packaging studies, attachment strategies, snap calculations, and related topics
Therefore, Analyst Voice is dedicated to helping engineering students and professionals by providing practical knowledge related to automotive seat systems and plastic design engineering.
