  • 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: 20220391789
    Abstract: A system for access control is provided. A computing device schedules a hardware service event for a hardware component, the hardware component locked in a physically locked position by a locking mechanism of a hardware lock. The computing device, at a time corresponding to the hardware service event, authorizes a service technician to access the hardware component. The computing device instructs the hardware lock to disengage the locking mechanism based, at least in part, on the authorizing of the service technician. The computing device determines that an end condition for the hardware service event has been met. The computing device terminates the hardware service event based, at least in part, on the determining that the end condition for the hardware service event has been met.
