Many embodiments can include a system. The system can comprise one or more processors; and one or more non-transitory computer readable mediums storing computing instructions. The computing instructions can be configured to run on the one or more processors and cause the one or more processors to perform: receiving, at a first sensor coupled in a fixed position relative to an automated door, a signal from a portable sensor associated with a user; in response to receiving the signal from the portable sensor, facilitating a customized opening actuation of the automated door or a customized closing actuation of the automated door, wherein at least one of the customized opening actuation or the customized closing actuation is customized for the user.

A method for operating a system is formed by at least one furniture element, preferably a furniture drive or a furniture lock, with which at least one part of an item of furniture can be driven or activated, and at least one control device for controlling the at least one furniture element with a control command via an operating command. In a first receiving method step, the at least one control device wirelessly receives at least one digital operating command by at least one receiving device and, in a transmitting method step, the at least one control device wirelessly transmits at least one digital control command to a receiving device of the at least one furniture element by at least one transmitting device.

The present invention provides an automatic animal door system. The automatic animal door system includes an animal door module, a linear motor driver and a control module. The animal door module includes a door and a frame having an opening, and the door is lively connected with the frame and configured to move between a closed position covering the opening and an open position away from the opening. The linear motor driver is connected with the door and configured to drive the door move between the closed position and the open position. The control module is electrically connected the linear motor driver and includes a processor and a non-volatile memory storing a programmed set of instructions. The processor executes the programmed set of instructions to control the linear motor driver open or close the door.

An interior rearview mirror assembly for a vehicle includes a mirror head, a mirror mounting structure configured to adjustably mount the mirror head at an interior portion of the vehicle, and a receiving portion for receiving a portable accessory module. A retaining element is configured to attach at the mirror casing at the receiving portion to releasably secure the portable accessory module at the receiving portion. With the retaining element at least partially detached from the mirror casing, the portable accessory module is insertable into and removable from the receiving portion. With the portable accessory module inserted into and received at the receiving portion and with the retaining element attached at the mirror casing, the retaining element overlaps a lower portion of the portable accessory module to secure the portable accessory module at the receiving portion.
