The command chair, also referred to as captain's chair, is the most important position on board a starship bridge.
This seat, as its alternate name implies, is occupied by the captain of the vessel, or the officer who commands the vessel in the captain's absence. The ship's duty officer sits on the command chair at all times and monitors all operations on the bridge. The chair is usually equipped with companels and other related equipment. In addition, some versions can swivel so the commanding officer can easily turn to face any relevant station.
