Abstract: Automated configuration of an audio-visual system is made by determining a configuration for the system based on positioning information corresponding to a location of a user. Determination may further account for ambient conditions, content presented via the system, performance characteristics of the system, physical attributes of the user, preferences of the user, or physical constraints of the system or surrounding environment. Configuration of the system is effectuated through automated bases configured to receive signals generated based on the determination, which can involve spatial configuration of one or more system components, e.g., translational displacement and rotational motion, and/or electronic reconfiguration of one or more system components, e.g., setting adjustments. Users can modify or override configuration at any time.
