A workstation including a height-adjustable work surface is described. The workstation includes a frame, and the work surface is configured to translate relative to the frame to vary a height of the work surface. A lift assembly configured to assist translation of the work surface relative to the frame. The lift assembly includes a moveable component and translation of the moveable component results in a translation of the work surface relative to the frame. A translation sensor is coupled to one of the frame or the movable component, and it is configured to measure translation of the moveable component relative to the frame. A control circuit is in communication with the translation sensor to determine an amount of translation of the work surface relative to the frame.

Workstation height-adjustment monitoring

Systems and methods for monitoring and management of an electronic device are discussed here. An authentication request is received from a user for access to an electronically secured compartment of an electronic device. Authentication data is obtained from the user. An authentication request that includes a device identifier for the electronically secured compartment and the authentication data is transmitted to a cloud-based authentication service. Access to the electronically secured compartment is provided upon receipt of an indication of an association between the user and the electronically secured compartment from the cloud-based service provider.

Accurate estimation of battery charge remaining in a mobile cart

Techniques for distributing electrical power to a plurality of electrical loads can include coupling an existing group of electrical loads to a common power source through a load management system, measuring an aggregate group current drawn by at least the existing group of electrical loads and comparing the measured aggregate group current to an aggregate group current threshold value. When the measured aggregate group current exceeds the aggregate group current threshold value, increase a number of subgroups of the existing group, using subgroups that are formed without requiring information about individual current associated with the individual electrical loads, sequentially apply power to individual subgroups during non-overlapping time periods, sequentially measure at least a corresponding current drawn by the individual subgroups while power is applied to the subgroups, and sequentially comparing the measured current to a threshold value.

Electrical load management system and method

An electric assisted height adjustable workstation featuring an integrated user interface for height adjustment and power control resulting in zero standby power consumption is described. Power is connected to the workstation via a physical movement of the integrated user interface causing an integrated connector to complete a circuit. Power is disconnected between the power source and the workstation via physical retraction of the integrated UI or an automatic retraction if the user interface remains inactive for a period of time.

Height adjustable workstation with zero idle power

Systems and techniques for electronic telemetry-based device monitoring are described herein. A set of sensor data may be collected from a sensor array. The set of sensor data may be transmitted to a cloud service platform. A set of instructions may be received based on an evaluation of the set of sensor data. An operating parameter of the component may be adjusted using the set of instructions.

Sensor based enhanced customer experience

A mobile powered workstation can include a head unit assembly that can have at least one power outlet configured to provide power to at least one electronic device. The workstation can include a power system coupled to the head unit assembly. The power system can include a permanent battery and a battery assembly. The battery assembly can include a battery connection housing that can have a plurality of power connectors configured to electrically couple to a corresponding plurality of power connectors of a replaceable battery, the battery connection housing can have a first face and a second face that extends from the first face. The first face can define a first raised portion configured to engage with a corresponding first recessed portion in the replaceable battery. The second face can define a second raised portion configured to engage with a corresponding second recessed portion in the replaceable battery.

Power system for mobile workstation

A tablet storage device includes a module on a cart frame that includes a wheeled base. A cart module defines a selectively accessible interior space having multiple storage slots within the interior space for holding tablets. In some cases a tablet storage device holds multiple tablets using two or more modules in a stacked arrangement on a wheeled base. Each module can hold a portion of the multiple tablets within storage slots within an interior space inside the module. The storage slots may have connectors for connecting to tablets, and the cart frame can have a network connection system that is adapted to provide a network connection for each tablet that is connected to one of the connectors. The cart frame may also have a power supply system for charging each tablet that is connected to one of the connectors.

Tablet storage and transportation device

A powered furniture system can include at least a first article of powered furniture having a control circuit, a first number of power outlets, and a first identification circuit, and a second article of powered furniture having a second number of power outlets and a second identification circuit. A method of controlling power distribution in the system can include separately communicating with the first and second identification circuits over a communications channel, receiving data representing the first and second numbers of power outlets, determining, using the received data representing the first and second numbers of power outlets, a total number of power outlets in the system, and controlling application of power to the first and second numbers of power outlets using the determined total number of power outlets in the system.
