This is a wall-mounted computer desk. You can program it to raise itself every 45 minutes or so, in order to make you stand up for a few minutes.
We could even add a treadmill ("conveyor-belt workout machine").
I don't know much about the engineering here, but I'm sure someone can work it out.
A chair that encourages you to stretch

Do you work in telemarketing gustavolacerda? |

would be awfully hard on those who fall asleep with their feet on the desk....to be drug along a conveyor belt while your feet caught up where your neck should be... |

|
you sound like some type of exotic dip. welcome and pass the crackers. |

This is kinda good in an 'I could really do with one of these' sort of way and kinda bad in a 'now you can be working even while stretching your legs' sort of a way. |

[gusta] - Congratulations on your first idea, how come it took you four years? |
|
|
The desk was programed to drop back into place every four years. |

Bravo. I was just thinking I should probably get up and stretch a bit. With your desk invention I wouldn't even need to think about it...it would just happen. |
|
|
Whether you wanted it too or not. |
|
|
Can you imagine this in a meeting? |
|
|
EDIT: What am I thinking? Of course you can. |
