A bed includes a mattress set, an adjustable bedframe to adjust a position or orientation of the mattress, and a dryer to dry the mattress set. The dryer includes a fan, a filter, and a heater to discharge filtered hot air toward the dryer. A humidity sensing sheet may be provided to sense a humidity level at different regions or areas of the bed, and the dryer may be controlled to supply hot air to regions of the bed having a higher humidity level than a predetermined humidity level or humidity range.

Antiviral-treated fabric layers for mattress assemblies includes a silver halide and liposome carrier. Additionally, the envelope encapsulating a cushioning material can include an antiviral-treated fabric. The antiviral-treated fabric can include silver halide and a liposome carrier, wherein the liposome carrier is a vesicle.

A smart furniture controller may include a remote control device and a control box including a receptacle configured to receive and retain the remote control device. A first magnet may be provided within the receptacle on an inner wall of the control box, and a second magnet may be provided in the remote control device. The first magnet and the second magnet may be configured to magnetically connect when the remote control device is positioned in the receptacle. According to an aspect, the control box may include a control circuit and a wireless communication assembly. The control circuit may control a functional unit of a smart furniture item. The wireless communication assembly may be configured to send a control signal to an external receiver or to the remote control device to control a massage component of the remote control device.

A body supporting device system is provided comprising: a body supporting device configured to support at least part of a body; a pressure sensing layer comprising a plurality of pressure sensors arranged in a sensor pattern, the plurality of pressure sensors being each configured to sense pressure on the surface of the body supporting device at a corresponding sensing location; and a firmness adjusting layer comprising a plurality of actuators arranged in an actuator pattern, the plurality of actuators are each configured to control the firmness of the surface of the body supporting device at a corresponding adjusting location based on some or all of the pressures sensed by the plurality of pressure sensors

A smart sleep system comprising a mattress including a plurality of pressure zones, each pressure zone separately adjustable for firmness, a sensor to sense a user's position on the mattress, a processing system to determine pressure for each of the plurality of pressure zones based on data from the sensor, and a controller to adjust one or more of the pressure zones based on the determination.

A body support structure including a backrest, a seat connected to the backrest, and a suspension material connected to the backrest or the seat. The suspension material includes elastomeric filaments with monofilaments and multifilaments. The suspension material further includes a first zone with a first stiffness, a second zone with a second stiffness greater than the first stiffness, and a transition zone positioned between the first zone and the second zone.

A bed system includes microclimate control capabilities for providing quality sleep experience. The bed system can include a microclimate control subsystem configured to supply conditioned air (e.g., heated or cooled air) to a mattress, or draw ambient air from the mattress, to achieve a desired temperature at the top of the mattress. Utilizing supply of conditioned air to provide air at desired temperature to the mattress system, or utilizing air suction to drain heat away from the mattress system, can provide precise microclimate control at the mattress, thereby permitting conformable sleep.

The present invention relates to a novel movie theater seat cover device. The device is designed to be applied to a movie theater seat to prevent spreading unsanitary debris and pathogens. The device comprises a covering constructed as an elongated sleeve having an interior cavity and an external surface. The sleeve has a slit therein for readily slipping the cover over a portion of a seat so that the seat enters the interior cavity and the external surface is adapted to come into contact with a user's body. The elongated sleeve is further provided with a stabilizing means to secure the elongated sleeve to the seat as well as mitigate movement of the elongated sleeve on the seat while the user sitting thereon shifts around.

A computer application interface is provided, and receives first input indicating that the user has completed a first task. It is determined that the user is assigned to a second task. A bed output event and a bed output device are selected. The bed output event includes instructions for a bed output device. The bed output device is physically coupled to a bed and capable of responding to instructions to generate some output. The selected bed output event and bed output device are selected to facilitate the second task.
