We introduce a novel form of human-robot interaction, based on an emerging new form of robot. Specifically, we analyze and discuss the ability of continuum surface robots to support the human posterior, adapting their shape to the changing needs of the human. We illustrate the concept via several examples, focusing on the application of horse riding, in which adaptive robot saddles could increase rider comfort, versatility, and safety.
