Aspects of the present disclosure relate to automatic monitor position adjustment. An indication that an application is being launched is received. A preferred monitor position for the application is determined by referencing a data store mapping preferred monitor positions to respective metadata attributes, where the preferred monitor position for the application is determined based on the preferred monitor position being mapped to a first metadata attribute associated with the application within the data store. An actuator associated with the monitor is then instructed to adjust the position of the monitor to the preferred monitor position.

The present disclosure relates to an electrically controlled sliding apparatus for photographic equipment and a locking assembly thereof. The locking assembly for the electrically controlled sliding apparatus includes a fixed base mounted on the electrically controlled sliding apparatus and a locking fitting mounted on the fixed base. A driven member of the electrically controlled sliding apparatus is mounted within the fixed base. The locking fitting is capable of rotating relative to the fixed base after being pressed against the fixed base, so as to lock or unlock the driven member. The locking assembly for the electrically controlled sliding apparatus provided by the present disclosure is convenient to operate and simple in structure, and is capable of achieving that the sliding block is rapidly locked or unlocked on the guiding rail.

The present invention discloses a multifunctional stand and a stand assembly. The multifunctional stand includes a supporting part, a connection part and a magnet, where the supporting part is connected to the connection part, and a joint of the supporting part and the connection part is recessed inwards to form a recess; and the magnet is disposed at an end of the connection part far from the recess. The stand assembly includes a plug and the multifunctional described above. The multifunctional stand of the present invention can be used for other purposes when not supporting a mobile phone or a tablet computer, and is small in size and convenient to carry. The stand assembly of the present invention can prevent a metal plug from scratching other items when a charger is carried.

An adapter includes a housing and a shaft receiving port defined in the housing. The shaft receiving port defines grooves extending at least partway along the shaft receiving port. The grooves include a set of first grooves and a set of second grooves, where at least one of the first grooves is different from at least one of the second grooves. Another adapter for coupling a device to a track includes a housing defining a threaded port and a shaft receiving port; a track retention arrangement including a foot and a threaded post extending from the foot, where the threaded post is rotatably engaged with the threaded port of the housing to raise or lower the foot relative to the housing; and a locking mechanism including an actuator and a plunger coupled to the actuator and configured to extend from the housing into the track channel of the track.

A support stand includes a base and a support bracket. The support bracket has a first side and a second side opposite to each other. The first side is rotatably connected to the base. The support bracket further has a slot extending from the second side toward the first side.

An aerial movement system and method for calibrating same includes, generally, registration points and wireless position transceivers proximate the registration points and the object that communicate with a computer and allow for the computer to determine the appropriate amount of support lines to draw in or release.

A suspension rail type greenhouse comprehensive information automatic cruise monitoring device, includes a sliding rail a sliding platform, and a lifting and lowering mechanism suspended on a greenhouse truss; a multi-sensor system which includes a binocular vision multifunctional camera, a laser ranging sensor, an infrared temperature measuring sensor, an illumination intensity sensor, and a temperature and humidity sensor, and an electronically controlled rotary pan-tilt mounted below the lifting and lowering mechanism of the sliding platform; a detection azimuth overlooks plant canopies; and a multi-sensor system configured to perform stationary point detection on the plant canopies one by one along planting lines of plants under the driving of the sliding platform.

The invention is directed at a method of positioning a carrier on a flat surface using an positioning member, wherein the carrier comprises an upper part and a base which are connected to each other such as to be arranged remote from each other, wherein the positioning member is arranged between the base and the upper part such that the base is located at an opposite side of the positioning member with respect to the upper part of the carrier, the upper part resting on the positioning member prior to placing of the carrier onto the flat surface, wherein the upper part comprises three engagement elements, and wherein the positioning member comprises a support surface for receiving the three engagement elements of the upper part, said support surface including a plurality of sockets forming a kinematic mount for said three engagement elements, wherein the base comprises three landing elements, each landing element being associated with a respective one of the three engagement elements, and the method comprising the steps of: operating the positioning member for moving the carrier relative to the flat surface in a direction parallel thereto such as to position the carrier above a landing position; performing an action of placing the carrier on the flat surface at the landing position, said action of placing comprising: moving the base towards the flat surface until at least one of said landing elements is in contact with the flat surface and an associated engagement element of said engagement elements is released from the kinematic mount; continue said moving of the base relative to the flat surface until all landing elements are in contact with the flat surface; and continue said action of placing the carrier until all engagement elements are released from the kinematic mount.

A blocking device is configured for blocking a dovetail plate that is flush-mounted in a track of the blocking device. The blocking device includes a base defining a side of the track and a clamping block arranged to be laterally displaceable on the base. The clamping block has a blocking side facing the track and a clamping side opposing the blocking side. A spacing between the blocking side and the clamping side varies in a direction parallel to the longitudinal extent of the track. The blocking device further includes a clamping lever that is rotatably arranged on the base and has a handpiece and an eccentric part. The eccentric part acts on the clamping side for displacing the clamping block.

Provided are a multivision display system a stand for the multivision display system. The multivision display system includes: a plurality of displays; and at least one stand configured to support the plurality of displays so as to stand on a horizontal surface, wherein the stand includes: a base configured to be supported by the horizontal surface; and a plurality of coupling frames configured to support the plurality of displays and which are mutually coupled to each other to adjust relative positions of the plurality of displays.
