Abstract: A workplace system comprises a work table, a height-adjustable work chair with a gas spring device, a plurality of sensors, an evaluation unit and a feedback device. At least one of the plurality of sensors is mounted on the worktable. At least one further of the plurality of sensors is mounted on or in the gas spring device and arranged to detect posture data of a user of the work chair. The evaluation unit is configured to receive the posture data and further measurement data from the plurality of sensors, to determine a well-being measure of the user on the basis of a joint evaluation of the received posture data and the measurement data, and to control the feedback device as a function of the well-being measure.

Abstract: An electrically adjustable piece of furniture comprises a first and at least one second actuator for adjusting a component of the piece of furniture and a controller for controlling the first and at least one second actuator. The actuators each have a first element and a second element which are displaceable relative to each other, and a sensor attached to the first element and adapted to measure a distance between the first and second elements. The distance measurement is based on a time-of-flight measurement of a wave. The controller is arranged to determine an absolute position of each actuator from the respectively measured distance.

Abstract: In a furniture system with an electrically adjustable piece of furniture, a system component and an energy transmission device, the piece of furniture has at least one actuator for adjusting the piece of furniture and a controller for controlling the actuator. The energy transmission device is arranged on or in the piece of furniture and is adapted to receive energy from a supply network and to deliver it wirelessly. The system component has an electrical energy store for supplying voltage to the system component and a charging circuit for charging the energy store. The charging circuit is adapted to at least partially receive the energy output from the energy transmission device without physical contact with the energy transmission device and to use it to charge the energy store.

Abstract: The disclosure provides controlled release compositions comprising tetracyclines and in some embodiments, doxycycline. The controlled release doxycycline compositions of the invention exhibit a superior dissolution profile and provide reduced side effects such as nausea and irritation.

Abstract: A manual operating element for operating an electrically adjustable piece of furniture includes a handle body comprising a mounting body, a handle section connected to the mounting body and an elastic member operatively connected to the handle section. The mounting body is adapted to be attached to a component of the piece of furniture. The handle section is adapted for gripping by a user. A force sensor is operatively connected to the elastic member and serves to detect a directional force value corresponding to a force applied to the handle section. A touch sensor is used to detect a touch value as a function of the user touching the handle section. A communication unit is arranged to transmit the force value and the touch value or a signal derived from the force value and the touch value to a controller of the piece of furniture.

Abstract: The present application provides a once-through evaporator system. The once-through evaporator system may include a number of once-through evaporator sections with a distribution valve and a level sensor and a controller in communication with each distribution valve. The controller provides the distribution valve with a position set point and biases the position set point via a feedforward signal based on a fill level as determined by the level sensor in each of the once-through evaporator sections.

Abstract: The present application provides a once-through evaporator system. The once-through evaporator system may include a number of once-through evaporator sections having an upstream distribution valve and a downstream temperature sensor and a position controller in communication with each distribution valve.

Abstract: Remote-controllable furniture control (3) for a piece of furniture (15) with at least one adjustable furniture part (15, 17), wherein the furniture control (3) includes a transceiver (10), which enables both a cordless communication (1) with a first remote control device (6) according to a first transmission standard and a cordless communication (2) with a second remote control device (7) according to a different, second transmission standard.

Abstract: Systems and methods for self-adjusting displays are provided. A self-adjusting display may receive a display characteristics shift profile, where the display characteristics shift profile can be generated based on calibration event data collected from a plurality of displays. The display characteristics shift profile can be utilized as an estimate or prediction of a shift in display characteristics the self-adjusting display may experience over time. The self-adjusting display may calculate adjustment factors or curves to compensate for the estimated/predicted shift in display characteristics to lessen or altogether eliminate the need for performing actual calibration on the self-adjusting display.
