Abstract: A control system may be configured to learn a heating schedule at a first location according to an automated schedule learning algorithm that processes inputs including user inputs and occupancy sensing inputs and derives schedule-affecting parameters therefrom that are processed to compute the control schedule. The control system may also be configured to determine whether a thermostat has been moved to a new location, and if it is determined that the thermostat has been moved to the new location, then determine one or more parameters associated with the new location and establish a new control schedule for the new location, where zero or more of the schedule-affecting parameters are re-used based on the one or more parameters associated with the new location.

Abstract: A system for creating a customizable juice beverage is provided. The system includes a plurality of individual juice pods, each having a consumable juice substance stored therein and configured to be combined with additional consumable juice substances to create the customizable juice beverage. Each juice pod can include a container having a cavity for holding the consumable juice substance and a top for enclosing the consumable juice substance in the cavity. Each juice pod can include a color-coded label identifying a characteristic of the consumable juice substance in the juice pod. Each consumable juice substance can be processed from a juicing product that can include a vegetable, a fruit, a nutritional supplement, or other consumable product. The individual juice pods can each contain a consumable juice substance derived from a different juicing product to enable the creation of a customizable juice beverage based on the preferences of a user.

Abstract: An electronic device may include an occupancy sensor that is configured to detect presence within a responsive range of the occupancy sensor and a stand configured to physically support the electronic device, where the stand comprises a reflective surface positioned to reflect energy emissions from an object within the responsive range of the occupancy sensor onto the occupancy sensor.

Abstract: A thermostat stand for a thermostat device may include a base and a mounting fixture configured to receive a thermostat device. The thermostat stand may additionally include an opening configured to allow one or more wires to pass through the opening to connect to the thermostat device, the one or more wires originating from either a power supply or from the boiler control device. The thermostat stand may further include a reflective horizontal surface positioned such that motion detection of energy-emitting objects is enhanced by virtue of reflections of energy emissions off of the reflective horizontal surface into the occupancy sensor.

Abstract: A control system may include a thermostat device and boiler control device. The thermostat device may be configured to receive electrical power from second wiring terminals and provide control signals to boiler control device using a second radio when wires are not present in first wiring terminals. The thermostat device may also be configured to receive electrical power from the first wiring terminals and provide the coded control signals to the boiler control device through the first wiring terminals when wires are present in the first wiring terminals. The boiler control device may be configured to receive the control signals from the thermostat device using a third radio and selectively couple the third wiring terminals to fifth wiring terminals to selectively control activation of the boiler-based heating system when wires are not present in fourth wiring terminals.
