A collapsible and portable seating apparatus may include a seating assembly and a media mast with at least one image generation device. The seating assembly may be collapsible via at least one linkage assembly or pivot assembly, and portable via at least one wheel assembly. The media mast may be couplable to the seat assembly and removable to be set on a ground surface. The media mast may be portable when coupled to the seating assembly and/or separately portable in a hand-truck configuration when removed from the seating assembly. The media mast and/or the seating assembly may include components to provide increased stability and resistance against external and internal forces, where the components are deployed when the media mast is on the ground surface or the seating assembly is unfolded. A canopy may be couplable to the seating assembly.

A packable chair is provided that is transformable between multiple configurations, including a storage configuration and a chair configuration. In the storage configuration, the portions of the packable chair are arranged and fastened to define an enclosed volume in which containers and other items can be stored. A user can wear the packable chair like a backpack in this storage configuration to transport the contents from, for example, a car to a location on a beach. Then, the contents can be removed from the enclosed volume, and the portions can be rearranged to form the chair configuration where a user can lounge and access the contents of the containers. The chair is also capable of achieving a travel configuration in which the chair can be worn as a backpack for convenient transportation without stowing a user's items.

A furniture system includes an office productivity structure (OPS). The furniture system also includes a sensor coupled to the OPS, the sensor operable to detect occupancy of the OPS and generate an output signal indicative of the occupancy; and a processor coupled to the sensor. The processor is operable to receive the output signal generated by the sensor, determine, based on the output signal, that the OPS is occupied, and, in response to determining that the OPS is occupied, generate a command to initiate at least one action associated with the OPS or an operator of the OPS.
