Smart Standing Desks

The Mister BrightLight Desk Can Be Lowered Using Hand Gestures

— December 5, 2014 — Art & Design
The MisterBrightlight is the latest addition to the increasingly popular selection of standing desks available on the market. However, this particular desk takes things to the next level -- its height can be adjusted by hand gestures.

The Mister BrightLight comes with an iOS app that is capable of tracking how many calories you are burning by working in a standing position, with users able to create goals, earn virtual trophies and share their progress on social media. The desk also tracks temperature, oxygen and humidity levels and sends push notifications to your phone when it thinks it might be a good idea to open a window and let some fresh air in.

The desk has an LED light around the perimeter, which can be altered to suit your mood or the design of the space where the desk is placed.
Trend Themes
1. Gesture-controlled Standing Desks - Opportunity for companies to develop smart standing desks that can be adjusted using hand gestures, providing a more interactive and convenient user experience.
2. Health-tracking Desks - Potential for businesses to create standing desks that come with built-in health tracking features, enabling users to monitor their fitness goals and share progress on social media.
3. Smart Desk Lighting - Disruptive innovation opportunity for companies to design standing desks with customizable LED lighting, allowing users to create a personalized ambiance and enhance the aesthetic of their workspace.
Industry Implications
1. Furniture Manufacturing - Furniture manufacturers can explore the demand for gesture-controlled standing desks and incorporate advanced features to stay competitive in the market.
2. Health and Wellness - Health and wellness companies have the potential to tap into the market for health-tracking desks and develop innovative solutions that promote an active and healthier lifestyle.
3. Smart Lighting Technology - Opportunity for smart lighting technology companies to collaborate with desk manufacturers in creating smart desks with customizable LED lighting options, revolutionizing the way workspaces are illuminated.
