  • Publication number: 20240074576
    Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for controlling positioning of a desk. An exemplary apparatus includes a tabletop, expandable legs, motors, position sensors, a processor, and a memory configured to store instructions. The motors alter a length of one of the expandable legs. The position sensors identify current position of each of the plurality of expandable legs. The instructions cause the processor to receive a sensor signal, a communication signal, or a command signal, receive the identified current position of one or more of the expandable legs, determine a projected length value for the one or more expandable legs responsive to the received sensor signal, the communication signal, or the command signal, and command one or more of the plurality of motors based on the projected length value for the one or more expandable legs and the identified current position of the one or more expandable legs.

  • Publication number: 20240079914
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and tables are disclosed for charging multiple devices on a surface and providing feedback. An exemplary method includes sensing a location of a wirelessly rechargeable device on a charging surface of the wirelessly charging surface device and wirelessly powering the wirelessly rechargeable device via a portion of the charging surface corresponding to the sensed location of the wirelessly rechargeable device. The method also includes receiving charging status information from the wirelessly rechargeable device and outputting a human perceptible indication responsive to the received charging status information and the sensed location of the wirelessly rechargeable device.

  • Patent number: 10788289
    Abstract: A firearm training device can include a firearm frame that has a barrel with a camera disposed at a distal end of the barrel, a grip attached to the barrel, and a trigger in proximity to the grip. The trigger can be configured to toggle an electronic switch. The firearm frame can also include a controller communicatively coupled to the camera and the electronic switch. The controller can be configured to collect an image frame or video segment, via the camera, when the electronic switch is toggled, and generate a composite image or video including the image frame or video segment and a strike indicator overlaid onto the image frame or video segment, whereby the composite image or video demonstrates where a firearm strike would have occurred. In other embodiments, the firearm training device is configured as an attachment for a firearm (e.g., a live firearm or mock firearm).
