Abstract

See full text

A method of user identification in association with an automated furniture item is provided. In embodiments, a user identification method for an automated furniture item utilizes occupancy detection and proximity detection, such as via a BLE PXP. In some embodiments, a system associated with an automated furniture item is provided, which identifies a particular user's smart device (i.e., a device configured to connect to one or more other devices and/or networks, such as a tablet computing device or smartphone) within range of the automated furniture item controller, and generates a corresponding response based on occupancy detection of that particular user. In another embodiment, one or more environment features may be controlled and/or activated, in association with the automated furniture item, based on the coordinated response of both the proximity indication of user identity and the presence detection of a particular user with respect to the automated furniture item.
