Lately, I feel like my home-office chair doesn't understand me, which is disappointing given all the time we're spending hunkered down together. If only my chair was aware of my current situation: endless hours of videoconferencing, limited exercise, fitful sleep, a stiff back. Any time our regular routine undergoes a major disruption, everything feels off-kilter. Working from home is a big change for many of us, but opportunities exist for new experiences enabled by an array of increasingly smart devices. What if these devices could sense something was out of balance and collaborated on how to make us feel better?
