The present invention provides systems and methods for management and orchestration of a fleet of remote Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. The present invention includes a platform for onboarding, provisioning, and managing remote IoT devices throughout their lifetime. The platform includes portals for manufacturers, vendors, and consumers to access device data and sensor data collected by the devices. The data collected by the portal is used to control the fleet of remote IoT devices as well as make recommendations, e.g., for sleep promotion and stress reduction.

A mattress including air cells that are located on both sides of a user, in which the air cells each have a convex shape on a first side surface, and the air cells are arranged so that the convex shapes thereof are respectively located near shoulder blade outer edges of the user.

An inflatable cushion for body support is described. The inflatable cushion can be adjusted to manually/automatically set the proper pressure distribution, remove pressure from sensitive regions, alternate pressure, facilitate moisture removal, automatically detect leakage and avoid bottom down, communicate leakage and other problems with the user/caregiver, detect wrong positioning and facilitate position correction. The inflatable cushion can be used either as a chair cushion such as for example as a cushion for wheelchair or as a bed mattress.

An inflatable cushion comprising; a cover; a base; a communication device; a microcontroller; a power source; a gas pump; a primary tube; a blow off valve; two-way valves; a plurality of secondary tubes; and a plurality of bladder pods with pressure sensors.

The present invention relates to a seat for infants and toddlers equipped with a ventilation cooling device, the seat comprising: an upper plate (10) in which a plurality of air intake ports (101) and air exhaust ports (102) are formed; a lower plate (20) coupled to a lower portion of the upper plate (10), and having an internal space partitioned, by means of a partition wall (201), into an intake space (202) and an exhaust space (203), wherein the two spaces communicate with each other through a vent portion (201a) having a predetermined size formed in the partition wall (201); a blowing fan (30), installed inside the intake space (202), for intaking air that is outside the air intake ports (101) and discharging same through the air exhaust ports (102) that communicate with the exhaust space (203); a power supply unit (40) for supplying power to the blowing fan (30); and an air guide (50), formed at a lower portion of the air exhaust ports (102), for guiding air discharge. According to the present invention, ventilation between a baby's body part in close contact with a seat surface and the seat surface in close contact with the body part, and cooling corresponding to the ventilation are smoothly performed by means of the blowing fan, such that excellent comfort can be provided, and it is possible to carry and store the seat easily.

Described herein are multifunctional smart beds and methods of operating thereof. Specifically, a multifunctional smart bed comprises a controller, configured to receive input from various sensors (e.g., load cells positioned in bed legs, thermometers, and/or microphones) and/or user. These inputs are analyzed and used to control various bed components to improve the sleep quality, to monitor users' health, score couple's relationship, and the like. For example, these inputs may be used to control the firmness of different mattress portions, change orientations of the head, torso, and/or leg sections, adjust the light, and the like. In some examples, the smart bed generates a report indicating one or more sleep duration, sleep depth profile, sleep scope, heart rate, breath rate, environment conditions, couple's relationship, and the like. Furthermore, in some examples, a multifunctional smart bed is also configured to control external devices in the same environment, e.g., smart switches, smart thermostats.

An apparatus that supports a person in a variety of positions so that a tattoo artist can comfortably apply a tattoo to the skin of the supported person is herein disclosed. The apparatus can be articulated to cause a person's legs and arms to be optimally positioned and supported to receive a tattoo.

A power source resident in furniture provides power to at least one charging port or socket used to provide power to an electronic device. The furniture may be an articulated furniture having at least one motor. The furniture may have at least one type of switch that manages the power to the charging port. The switch may reduce wasted energy consumption due to heat lost at the charging port.

An electromotive furniture drive includes an adjustment drive for the electromotive movement of a movable furniture component relative to a further furniture component, a control device, and an operating unit. A motor of the adjustment drive is actuated as a function of signals from the operating unit. The control device includes a semiconductor power switch for switching a motor current of the motor, with a voltage dropping across the semiconductor power switch being supplied to an evaluation unit in order to detect commutation edges of the motor.

A bed system can have an adjustable foundation and a user interface having at least one adjustment bar. The user interface can be communicatively coupled to an actuation system of the adjustable foundation such that raising a foot portion of the at least one adjustment bar can signal the actuation system to raise a foot section of the adjustable foundation, raising a head portion of the adjustment bar can signal the actuation system to raise a head section of the adjustable foundation, lowering the foot portion of the adjustment bar can signal the actuation system to lower the foot section of the adjustable foundation, and lowering the head portion of the adjustment bar can signal the actuation system to lower the head section of the adjustable foundation.
