As the configuration of furnishing units  110  changes over time, their respective locations can be updated. 
     The unit-based contextual data can further indicate product identifiers of one or more related furnishing units  658 . For example, the related furnishing units  658  of a given furnishing unit  110  can indicate furnishing unit identifiers for other furnishing units  110  in proximity of the furnishing unit  110  and/or that are collectively grouped and/or controlled. This set of related furnishing units can influence the experience option data  655  accordingly, where a user is optionally presented with control and/or experience options relating to these nearby and/or grouped furnishing units  110 . 
     For example, a table implemented as a furnishing unit  110  is in proximity of a heater, fan, lighting unit, and/or speakers, which are all themselves furnishing units. In particular, the heater, fan, lighting unit, and/or speakers can be configured for use by guests at the corresponding table. Thus, proximity-based interaction  111  with the table implementing furnishing unit  110  can automatically enable proximity-based interaction  111  with the corresponding heater, fan, lighting unit, and/or speakers for this table, such as user configuration of the heater, fan, lighting unit, and/or speakers by a user based on sitting at the table and/or based on their proximity-based interaction  111  with the table. Furnishing unit identifiers for the heater, fan, lighting unit, and/or speakers can be indicated as related furnishing units  658  accordingly. 
     The unit-based contextual data can further indicate product identifiers of one or more related products  659 . For example, a given furnishing unit  110  can indicate multiple product identifiers, for example, based on the furnishing unit  110  being accessorized embellished with multiple products and/or based on the furnishing unit  110  being in proximity of multiple products. This set of related products can influence the experience option data  655  accordingly, where a user is optionally presented with experience options relating to nearby, accessorizing, and/or similar furnishing units  110 . For example, a chair implemented as a furnishing unit  110  that includes decorative pillows can include product identifiers for the chair itself, as well as the decorative pillows, where the identifiers for these decorative pillows are optionally related products  659 . As another example, wall art implemented as a furnishing unit  110  can include product identifiers for artwork, as well as a particular frame framing the artwork. 
     Note that these other products of related products  659  need not be permanently fixed to and/or always within proximity of the furnishing unit  110 . For example, a table implemented as a furnishing unit  110  can include product identifiers in related products  659  for glassware, dishes, and/or cutlery that is used by the establishment to serve food or drinks upon its tables, even though the glassware, dishes, and/or cutlery are not always upon the table. 
     Note that these other products of related products  659  need not be in the vicinity, or even in the establishment. For example, the corresponding product of a table implemented as a furnishing unit  110  may have optional accessories produced by the same manufacturer, such as an umbrella and/or matching chairs, that are not used at the establishment and/or are not in vicinity of the furnishing unit  110 . As another example, the corresponding product of a chair implemented as a furnishing unit  110  may be produced in multiple colors, with multiple types of materials, or multiple other configurations, where all of these other configurations of the chair all have corresponding product identifiers. These product identifiers for other configurations can be indicated in related products  659 .

     Alternatively or in addition, the product data  169  for a given product can indicate experience option data  655 , which can indicate the types of possible experiences that can be facilitated for the user based on the interaction with a furnishing unit  110  that includes and/or is the corresponding product; prompt data for display via interactive user interface  275  indicating one or more configurable options for the experience; and/or other data indicating and/or defining the experience option data  655 . 
     Alternatively or in addition, the product data  169  for a given product can indicate product-based furnishing experience history  641 , which can be similar to and/or based on the user-based furnishing experience history  512  of user accounts as discussed in conjunction with  FIG. 5D  and/or can otherwise indicate some or all user interactions with, and/or corresponding furnishing experiences performed based on user interactions with, one or more different furnishing units  110  that include and/or correspond to the given product. 
     Alternatively or in addition, the furnishing unit data  166  can indicate learned product characteristic data  646 , which can indicate and/or be based on various statistical and/or trend data generated for the product. For example, at least one analytics function and/or model training function of the function library  172  is performed by furnishing experience system  100  to generate statistical and/or trend data for some or all product data  169  based on their respective unit-based furnishing experience history  640 , indicating relative types and/or feedback of experiences facilitated via interaction with the furnishing units that correspond to the given product, how often and/or which times of day, week, month, and/or year the furnishing units that correspond to the given product tend to be interacted with, demographics and/or learned characteristics of users that tend interact with different furnishing units that correspond to the given product, types and/or proportion of establishments that tend to use this type of furnishing, and/or other information. The learned product characteristic data  646  of a given product can optionally be based on aggregating over the learned furnishing unit characteristic data  644  of some or all furnishing unit data  166  with product identifiers  652  indicating this given product. 
     In some embodiments, some or all furnishing units  110  do not have their own furniture unit data  166  and/or their own furnishing unit identifiers  650  based on not being easily distinguishable from other furnishing units  110  of the same type of product, based on not requiring distinction from other furnishing units  110  of the same type of product, and/or based on not having corresponding types of experiences that are based on a particular furnishing units  110  and/or location of the particular furnishing units  110  within the establishment. 
     For example, consider a restaurant that includes a plurality of chairs and/or tables with which users can interact via a proximity-based interaction  111 , and that further includes glassware, dishes, and/or cutlery that are served to users while at these tables and/or chairs, and with which users can also interact via a proximity-based interaction  111 . All chairs, tables, glassware, dishes, and/or cutlery can be implemented as furnishing units  110 , where users can have a furnishing experience facilitated accordingly based on the proximity-based interactions  111  with these various furnishings. 
     However, it may not be feasible and/or necessary for each individual fork, plate, and/or wine glass to be distinguishable from other forks, plates, and/or wine glasses at the given establishment. Furthermore, the furnishing experience facilitated for glassware, dishes, and/or cutlery may not require distinguishing between individual forks, plates, and/or wine glasses. For example, the furnishing experience facilitated for glassware, dishes, and/or cutlery can include enabling a user to purchase products of identical make and model of this glassware, dishes, and/or cutlery, based on their product identifiers. Thus, while the user can have proximity-based interactions  111  with these furnishing units  110 , the furnishing units are only distinguishable by their product identifiers  652 , and not by furnishing unit identifiers  650 . In such cases, the furnishing unit data  166  of these furnishing units  110  can optionally be implemented as the product identifier. 
     Meanwhile, it can be reasonable and/or desirable to differentiate between the different chairs and/or tables at the restaurant, even if the chairs are the same make and model and/or even if the tables are the same make and model, based on some or all corresponding furnishing experiences being based on the particular chair and/or table, and/or being based upon the particular location of the chair and/or table within the establishment. For example, the furnishing experience facilitated for chairs and/or tables at the restaurant can include enabling a user to order food for delivery to their given chair and/or table; to configure the lighting, heating, cooling, and/or audio supplied to the user via their chair and/or table, and/or via other furnishing units  110  in proximity to their chair and/or table; to indicate that their chair or table is reserved and/or in use, for example, while they visit the restroom, and/or other experiences. 
     In some cases, these furnishing unit  110  of a same product still have furnishing unit data  166  to denote their respective establishment, enabling the interaction with products across different establishments to be tracked accordingly. In such cases, a furnishing unit identifier  650  can denote a particular establishment and a particular product, where all of a same type of product at a given establishment are denoted with a same furnishing unit identifier  650  For example, multiple furnishing unit data  166  can indicate a given product identifier  652  for a particular make and model of wine glass, where one furnishing unit data  166  for this particular make and model of wine glass has a first furnishing unit identifier  650  corresponding to use of this make and model of wine glass at a first establishment, and where another furnishing unit data  166  for this particular make and model of wine glass has a different furnishing unit identifier  650  corresponding to use of this make and model of wine glass at a different, second establishment.

Once the furnishing unit identification data  350  is collected and/or extracted by the client device  130 , it can then be used to enable selection of and/or facilitation of a corresponding furnishing experience as discussed previously. 
     In some embodiments, the client device implements identifier input element  255  in accordance with execution of application data corresponding to the furnishing experience system  100 . For example, this application data corresponds to a mobile application that was previously downloaded to client device  130  from an application marketplace. While this application data is being executed, the client device is operable to invoke sensors of client device  130  implementing identifier input element  255  to collect furnishing unit identification data  350  and/or can perform processing of collected data to extract furnishing unit identification data  350 , enabling furnishing units  110  in the proximity to be identified. 
     In other embodiments, the client device implements identifier input element  255  automatically, without application data corresponding to the furnishing experience system  100  being necessarily predownloaded and/or executed. For example, in conjunction with normal operations and/or execution with another application not associated with the furnishing experience system  100 , the identifier conveyance unit  201  automatically collects and/or extracts furnishing unit identification data  350 . For example, a QR code conveyed by identifier conveyance unit  201  and/or implementing furnishing unit identification data  350  is automatically identified via a camera of client device  130  and/or corresponding processing of collected image data by the camera via use of a camera application executed by the client device  130 . As another example, an NFC reader implementing identifier input element  255  automatically detects and processes furnishing unit identification data  350  in normal operation of client device  130  based on client device  130  being in close physical proximity to an NFC tag implementing the identifier conveyance unit  201  and/or based on an NFC reader application of the client device  130  being executed. 
     In such embodiments where furnishing unit identification data  350  is automatically collected and/or extracted without application data corresponding to furnishing experience system  100  being open and/or currently executing, client device  130  optionally displays a prompt via its display device, where user interaction with the prompt enables the user to elect to visit a corresponding webpage, to open a predownloaded application corresponding to furnishing experience system  100 , and/or to download and install the corresponding application data for execution, via interaction with a prompt displayed via a display of the client device  130 , for example, based on data embedded in embedded in and/or extracted from an automatically detected QR code and/or the automatically detected NFC communications via the NFC reader. The display of experience option data  320 , and/or the selection and facilitation of one or more corresponding furnishing experiences, can then be facilitated in conjunction with display of the corresponding webpage and/or execution of the corresponding application data, once downloaded if necessary, based on the user interaction with the prompt to open the webpage, download the application, and/or open the application. 
     Alternatively or in addition, rather than necessitating download and installation of the full application data corresponding to the furnishing experience system  100 , for example, via an authenticated process and/or in response to the user electing to download the application data corresponding to the furnishing experience system  100 , a portion of the application data can be automatically downloaded and/or executed based on the identifier input element  255  collecting and/or extracting furnishing unit identification data  350 , for example, from an automatically detected QR code and/or the automatically detected NFC communications via the NFC reader. In some cases, this portion of the application data is automatically downloaded from an application marketplace via an unauthenticated process, and/or without necessitating user interaction with the display device to elect and/or confirm this application data be downloaded and installed, and/or without downloading and installing the full application associated with the furnishing experience system  100 , where the display of experience option data  320 , and/or the selection and facilitation of one or more corresponding furnishing experiences, can then be facilitated in conjunction with display of a corresponding graphical user interface and corresponding processing via the automatic execution of this partial application. 
     As a particular example, the experience option data  320  is automatically displayed in response to automatic download of the portion of the application data as an App Clip by a client device implemented as an iPhone and/or implemented by operating in accordance with iOS. As another particular example, the experience option data  320  is automatically displayed in response to automatic download of the portion of the application data as an Instant App by a client device implemented as an Android device. 
     For example, the user is presented with a graphical user interface to configure heating by the furnishing unit  110  based on download of a corresponding partial application to enable the user to quickly configure heating without waiting for a corresponding application to install in its entirely. In some embodiments, a user of the client device can later elect to download and install the full application associated with the furnishing experience system  100  for selection and facilitation of future furnishing experiences with the same or different furnishing unit. 
     In some embodiments, after furnishing unit identification data  350  is determined, the furnishing unit identification data  350  is saved locally upon client device  130  and/or is saved to the user&#39;s user account  165 , for example, as user-based furnishing experience history  512  as discussed previously, even if a corresponding furnishing experience is not facilitated. This can include saving information indicated by the furnishing unit identification data  350  for future use such as: the corresponding furnishing unit identifier  650 ; the corresponding product identifier  652 ; a corresponding QR code; the corresponding pairing instructions used to establish a communications channel with the furnishing unit; corresponding application data that is downloaded, installed, and/or executed in conjunction with facilitating a corresponding furnishing experience; corresponding weblinks to a webpage that, when visited by via a browser application of the client device, enables selection of experience selection data in conjunction with facilitating a corresponding furnishing experience; and/or other information. In some cases, this information is saved for access even after the proximity-based interaction  111  and/or corresponding proximity-based communications  160  between the client device  130  and the corresponding furnishing unit  110  elapse, for example, based on the user no longer using the furnishing unit  110  and/or based on the user and their client device no longer being in proximity with the furnishing unit  110 , for example, based on leaving a corresponding establishment. 
     For example, the client device  130  can automatically facilitate reestablishing of the proximity-based communications  160  with the furnishing unit at a later time once the user is again in contact with the furnishing unit, without some or all furnishing unit identification data  350  needing be re-received, re-processed and/or re-authenticated, based on the accessing the saved furnishing unit identification data  350  in memory of their client device  130  and/or via access to their user account  165 . This can include re-executing corresponding application data to present experience option data  320  based on a previously installed full application and/or based on a previously downloaded partial application, and/or can include applying previously selected experience selection data  322  automatically, for example, sent to the furnishing unit automatically to control the furnishing unit at this later time, without re-prompting the user to make this selection via the presentation of the experience option data  320 . 
     As another example, a client device can enable control of a given furnishing unit with saved furnishing unit identification data  350  remotely, for example, via Internet communications and/or via routing via furnishing experience system  100 . For example, an owner of one or more furnishing units  110  is presented via interactive user interface  275  after they leave the corresponding establishment and/or while otherwise not in proximity with the one or more furnishing units based on accessing the corresponding saved furnishing unit identification data  350  in memory of their client device  130  and/or via access to their user account  165 , where interaction with this interactive user interface  275  enables the user to turn off experience facilitation elements  515  of these furnishing units, set timers and/or schedules for configuration of experience facilitation elements  515  of these furnishing units  110 , retrieve unit-based furnishing unit history  640  or other information collected by these furnishing units, or configure and/or gather information relating to these furnishing units remotely. 
     As another example, a client device can enable other furnishing experience corresponding to the given furnishing unit with saved furnishing unit identification data  350  remotely. A client device  130  of a visitor to an establishment collects furnishing unit identifier data  350  of a furnishing unit  110  at the establishment, for example, in conjunction with a corresponding furnishing experience and/or proximity based interaction  111  while at the establishment. After leaving the establishment and/or after the proximity-based interaction  111  otherwise ends, a same or different furnishing experience can be facilitated remotely based on accessing the corresponding saved furnishing unit identification data  350  in memory of their client device  130  and/or via access to their user account  165 . For example, a purchasing experience, such as purchase of the furnishing unit or one of the other furnishing units that were nearby, is facilitated for the user using the furnishing unit identification data  350  once the user is home and has had time to contemplate the purchase. As another example, a social experience is facilitated via chat communications between two users that previously connected while having proximity-based interaction  111  with respective furnishing units, even after one or both users are no longer in proximity to these furnishing units.

For example, the visual identifier data corresponds to static, two-dimensional image data physically imparted to material attached to the furnishing unit, that can further be rendered as digital image data and/or a corresponding digital code when processed via visual identifier processing module. 
       FIG. 5H  illustrates an embodiment of furnishing unit  110  that displays its visual identifier data  355  via an electronic display device  209 , for example, instead of visual identifier data  355  that is simply printed upon or adhered to the furnishing unit  110  as a sticker or other static element. Some or all features and/or functionality of the furnishing unit  110  of  FIG. 5H  can be utilized to implement the furnishing unit  110  of  FIG. 5A  and/or some or all other embodiments of furnishing unit  110  described herein. Some or all features and/or functionality of the display device  209  of  FIG. 5H  can be utilized to implement the identifier conveyance unit  201  of  FIG. 5C  and/or some or all other embodiments of identifier conveyance unit  201  described herein. 
     Display device  209  can be implemented as an identifying device  511  of a furnishing processing system  120  of the furnishing unit  110 , and/or can be a stand-alone device that simply operates to display the visual identifier data  355  and/or other information of the corresponding furnishing unit via a screen and/or display of the display device  209 . The display device can be powered via a power source, enabling display of digital data via a screen and/or at least one lighting element of the display device. The visual identifier data  355  can optionally be implemented as a type and/or format of visual identifier data discussed in conjunction with  FIG. 5G , such as a QR code or other visible pattern, that is displayed digitally via the screen of display device  209  rather than being physically imparted upon material upon of the surface of the furnishing unit. 
     The visual identifier data  355  can optionally change over time, for example, to reassign the furnishing unit identification data  350  over time as the furnishing unit moves within an establishment, is utilized by different people, and/or has its one or more identifiers changed in furnishing database  163  and/or product database  168  accordingly. The display device  209  can update the display to display the most current visual identifier data  355  for the given furnishing unit. 
     Alternatively or in addition, the visual identifier data  355  can be implemented as dynamic image data, such as video data or other image data that otherwise that moves and/or changes on the screen of display device  209  to present the furnishing unit identification data  350 . A camera can similarly capture this dynamic image data for processing, for example, as a video and/or as multiple image frames. As another example, the user can easily identify text, colors, and/or symbols presented via the dynamic image data to enter the furnishing unit identification data  350  themselves via keyboard and/or touchscreen. 
     Alternatively or in addition, the display device can display further information instead of or in addition to the visual identifier data  355  that can be informative to a given user. If this information changes over time, it can be ideal to present this information via a dynamic display device  209  rather than static data adhered to the furnishing unit. As a particular example, current status data  653  can be determined by furnishing processing system  120  and/or can be received from furnishing experience system  100 , and can be displayed via display device. The given current status data  653  can be conveyed and updated based on displaying and updating corresponding text, particular corresponding symbols, and/or particular corresponding colors displayed via the display device. 
     For example, availability status data  331  can be included in the current status data  653 , and can indicate whether the furnishing unit is available for use and/or when the furnishing unit will become available for use, for example, based on whether it is already being used by, paid for by, and/or reserved by another user. For example, the display device  209  can display “available” or “unavailable” based on the availability status data  331 . Other current status data  653  corresponding to current status and/or configuration of experience facilitation elements  515 , can be displayed, for example, to indicate whether the heating element of a corresponding chair is still on and/or was turned off very recently, where the chair is still warm and is thus more desirable for use by the user than other chairs that have been off and cold for a long time. 
       FIG. 5I  illustrates an embodiment of client device  130  that determines furnishing unit identification data  350  based on processing signal identifier data  358  transmitted by a transmitter  207  of furnishing unit  110 . Some or all features and/or functionality of the client device  130  of  FIG. 5I  can be utilized to implement the client device  130  of  FIG. 5A  and/or some or all other embodiments of client device  130  described herein. Some or all features and/or functionality of the furnishing unit  110  of  FIG. 5I  can be utilized to implement the furnishing unit  110  of  FIG. 5A  and/or some or all other embodiments of furnishing unit  110  described herein. Some or all features and/or functionality of the transmitter  207  of  FIG. 5I  can be utilized to implement the identifier conveyance unit  201  of  FIG. 5C  and/or some or all other embodiments of identifier conveyance unit  201  described herein. Some or all features and/or functionality of the transmitter  207  of  FIG. 5I  can be implemented via the proximity-based communication transceiver  531  of  FIG. 4B . 
     Signal identifier data  358  can be implemented as an identifying wireless signal in accordance with a RFID, NFC, Bluetooth, and/or other communication protocol as discussed previously. Transmitter  207  can be implemented as an identifying device  511  of a furnishing processing system  120  of the furnishing unit  110 , a proximity-based communication transceiver  531 , and/or can be a stand-alone device that simply operates to identify the corresponding furnishing unit via the transmitted signal identifier data  358 . Transmitter  207  can optionally be implemented as a tag and/or beacon, such as an RFID and/or NFC tag and/or chip. Transmitter  207  can be implemented as a transponder and/or a passive transmitter, where transmitter  207  does not include and/or is not coupled to its own internal power source. For example, transmitter  207  is implemented via a copper coil or other coil that only transmits the furnishing unit identification data and/or product identification data as transmitted signal identifier data  358  when energized by an electromagnetic field generated by this other device in proximity, such as client device  130 , where the transmission of transmitted signal identifier data  358  by transmitter  207  is enabled only when this other device is in physical proximity to the identifying device  511 , such as within a physical range enabling inductive coupling between a coil of transmitter  207  and a coil of the other device, such as a physical range less than four centimeters and/or another range associated with a corresponding communications protocol. Alternatively, the transmitter  207  can be powered via a power source of the furnishing unit and/or can be operable to broadcast the transmitted signal identifier data  358  for receipt by client devices  130  in proximity, for example, constantly or in predefined intervals, regardless of whether any client devices  130  are in proximity at a given time. 
     A receiver  252  of client device  130  can implement the identifier input element  255 , and can collect signal identifier data  358 . Receiver  252  can further include and/or be coupled to a transmitter, for example, that generates an electromagnetic signal to facilitate inductive coupling with a passive transmitter  207  of identifying device  511  to enable identifying device  511  to emit transmitted signal identifier data  358 . For example, the identifier input element  255  can optionally be implemented as an NFC reader and/or an RFID reader. 
     A signal processing module  214  can be implemented via identifier input element  255  and/or client processing system  220 , can be operable to extract furnishing unit identification data  350  from the received signal, for example, based on performing a signal processing function and/or based on communicating via network  150  to determine the furnishing unit identification data from the signal identifier data  358 , for example, based on sending raw and/or processed signal identifier data  358  to furnishing experience system  100  for processing to identify the corresponding furnishing unit and/or based on locally processing signal identifier data  358  to identify the corresponding furnishing unit. Signal processing module  214  can be implemented to perform a signal processing function  708 . 
     The receipt of signal identifier data  358  emitted by the transmitter  207  by receiver  252  can be implemented as proximity-based communications  160  between the corresponding furnishing unit and client device. In some embodiments, further proximity-based communications  160  can be facilitated between the corresponding furnishing unit and client device based on a corresponding communications channel being established between the corresponding furnishing unit and client device in response to the identifier input element  255  of client device  130  receiving and processing the signal identifier data  358 . For example, the signal identifier data  358  indicates pairing instructions and/or other information that, when processed by client device  130 , enables the client device to transmit data to the furnishing processing system  120  for processing and/or enables establishing of the corresponding communications channel via the same and/or different type of signaling and/or communications protocol by which signal identifier data  358  is transmitted via transmitter  207 . 
     In such embodiments, the client device  130  can optionally transmits confirmation data, control data, and/or other data to the furnishing unit  110  for processing via furnishing processing system  120  via this established communications channel, and/or the furnishing processing system  120  of the furnishing unit  110  sends further communications to the client device  130  via this established communications channel. This communications channel can be implemented via a Bluetooth pairing, an NFC pairing, and/or any other one-way or two-way short range wired and/or wireless communications facilitating any proximity-based communications  160  discussed herein. This communications channel can facilitate sending of control data to the furnishing unit  110  corresponding to configuration of at least one furnishing experience facilitated via output by one or more experience facilitation elements  515  of the furnishing unit  110 , for example, as discussed in conjunction with some or all of  FIGS. 6A-6D . 
     The identifier input element  255  can be alternatively or additionally be implemented to collect furnishing unit identification data  350  conveyed by any identifier element  511  of furnishing unit  110 . For example, the identifier input element  255  determines furnishing unit identification data  350  based on one or more lighting devices implementing identifier element  511 , such as one or more LEDs, that identify the furnishing unit and/or its current status data  653  via an identifying pattern of illuminated bulbs in a grid of bulbs, via an identifying pattern of one or more colors, via dynamic flashing of the illuminated bulbs, or other means. As another example, the identifier input element  255  determines furnishing unit identification data  350  and/or its current status data  653  based on one or more speakers implementing identifier element  511 , for example, based on an identifying pattern of music and/or sound emitted by the speakers of the furnishing unit. 
     In some embodiments, the furnishing unit identification data  350  is received and/or determined in accordance with and/or based on a data format corresponding to visual identifier data  355  of  FIG. 355 , such as a QR code, a barcode, or another predetermined data format, even if the visual identifier data  355  is not included upon furnishing unit  110  for capturing by camera  251 . For example, another type of identifier input element  255 , such as a transmitter  207 , conveys the QR code or barcode as digital information, for example, extracted from and/or generated based on other information included in signal identifier data  356 . 
       FIG. 5J  illustrates an embodiment of client device  130  that determines furnishing unit identification data  350  based on processing image data  312  capturing features of the furnishing unit itself. Some or all features and/or functionality of the client device  130  of  FIG. 5J  can be utilized to implement the client device  130  of  FIG. 5A  and/or some or all other embodiments of client device  130  described herein. 
     Alternatively or in addition to necessitating that QR codes or other visual identifier data  355  is attached to and/or visible upon furnishing units  110 , or that they be operable to transmit identifying signals, image data capturing furnishing units themselves can be utilized to distinguish furnishing units. For example, in embodiments where only the product identifier corresponding to the furnishing unit is necessary for facilitating furnishing experiences, it can be reasonable for object recognition to be implemented to distinguish different types of products, for example, via artificial intelligence techniques, machine learning techniques, and/or computer vision models. In particular, as a given establishment may be using a reasonably-sized set of products, such as only a couple dozen or couple hundred different products, object recognition can be reliable and efficient in these cases as image features for fewer products need be distinguishable given the knowledge that a client device is in a particular location. This can be particularly effective in cases where products that could be easily confused, such as multiple brands of a given product, are not included in the same establishment based on the establishment only carrying one brand and/or type of a given product. 
     For example, a given restaurant may utilize only one type of fork, despite many different fork products being included in product database and/or being possible object for recognition in image data. An object recognition processing module  219 , upon recognizing a fork in image data, can automatically presume that this fork is the type of fork product known to be utilized at the corresponding restaurant, enabling small feature differences between different forks to not require processing by object recognition processing module  219 . Despite not being configured to detect these small feature differences, the exact model of fork in image data can still be distinguished based on the additional context corresponding to the user&#39;s location. 
     Alternatively, in some embodiments, all possible products are distinguishable via object recognition processing module  219 , and a proper subset of possible options is not utilized to limit detectable objects in this fashion. 
     When image data  312  is captured by client device  130 , the image data  312  can be processed via an object recognition processing module  219 , which can be implemented via execution of application data  212  stored in memory of client device and/or can be implemented via furnishing experience system  100 , for example, where image data  312  is sent to furnishing experience system  100  for processing by furnishing experience system  100  to determine furnishing unit identification data  350 . This can include performing at least one image processing function, for example, of function library  172 . The at least one image processing function can be trained from a training set of image data via artificial intelligence. For example, a user can pan their client device while sitting in a furnishing unit  110  to identify other furnishing units in the vicinity via the camera of their client device  130 . Information corresponding to the identified other units can optionally be displayed to the user in conjunction with an augmented reality experience implementing the furnishing experience, where this information is superimposed upon a display of client device  130  and/or of another display of an augmented reality device as corresponding other furnishing units by the camera are identified accordingly. Object recognition processing module  219  can be implemented to perform an object recognition function  710 , for example, based on storage or and/or access of a corresponding computing vision model  712 . 
     For example object recognition processing module can utilize a computer vision model trained utilizing image processing techniques, artificial intelligence techniques, and/or machine learning techniques. The computer vision model can be trained via various image data  654  of all products and/or all furnishing units of furnishing experience system  100 . The computer vision model can be based on and/or fine-tuned from object recognition computer vision models trained to detect a larger plurality of possible objects. Alternatively or in addition, this computer vision model can be fine-tined for each establishment based on a proper subset of products included at each establishment. 
     Only products known to be included in a given establishment can be considered as possible objects detectable in image data  312 , for example, based on determining the client device is in the given establishment based on geolocation data of the client device and/or the client device currently and/or recently having a proximity-based interaction  111  at the establishment, for example, based on a corresponding furnishing unit being identified as being at the establishment. The user can otherwise indicate they are at the establishment via user input to interactive user interface  275 . The furnishing experience system  100  can optionally determine a user is at an establishment based on the user being logged in a reservation system of a restaurant and/or having ordered food at the restaurant, for example, via computing systems of the restaurant communicating with the furnishing experience system  100 . For example, the output of an image processing function performed by object recognition processing module  219  is compared to only product identifiers and/or image data  654  of products that are included in the establishment. 
     In some embodiments, some or all larger furnishing units  110 , such as chairs and tables, can have visual identifier data  355  and/or can transmit signal identifier data  358 . Other furnishing units  110  where it is less feasible to attach visual identifier data  355  and/or embed beacons or tags for transmission of signal identifier data  358  can be simply identifiable based on being captured in image data. A user can have a proximity-based interaction  111  with the larger furniture, such as a chair or table. A furnishing experience facilitating via the user identifying given larger furniture can include enabling detection of smaller furnishings and/or other furnishings that do not have their own tags and/or visible labels, that optionally only become detectable once the user has proximity-based interaction  111  with the larger furniture to enable these other furnishings to become detectable, for example, based on the establishment in which the larger furnishing is location. 
     In some cases, an even smaller subset can be employed, for example, based on which products and/or furnishing units are in a room and/or area within an establishment in which a corresponding furnishing unit a user is known to be sitting and/or interacting with. For example, unit-based contextual data of a given furnishing unit  110 , such as related furnishing units  658  and/or related products  659 , can be employed alternatively or in addition to the establishment furnishing data  672  to enable identification via object recognition of only the items known to be in the vicinity of and/or otherwise related to the furnishing unit  110 . 
       FIGS. 6A-6C  illustrate example embodiments of proximity-based interactions  111  utilized to facilitate configuration of output of furnishing units  110 . Some or all features and/or functionality of client devices  130 , furnishing units  110 , and/or furnishing experience system  100  of  FIGS. 6A-6C  can be utilized to implement some or all features and/or functionality of other embodiments of client devices  130 , furnishing units  110 , and/or furnishing experience system  100  discussed herein. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 6A , a client device  130  receives furnishing unit identification data  350  from a set of furnishing units  110 . 4 ,  110 . 5 , and  110 . 6 . In this example, the furnishing unit  110 . 4  corresponds to a lamp and/or otherwise includes a lighting device configured to illuminate and/or provide lighting to a location in proximity to the furnishing unit, for example, as one or more of its experience facilitation elements  515 ; the furnishing unit  110 . 5  corresponds to a speaker and/or otherwise includes an audio output device, for example, as one or more of its experience facilitation elements  515 ; and/or the furnishing unit  110 . 6  corresponds to a heating lamp and/or otherwise includes a heating element, for example, as one or more of its experience facilitation elements  515 . In some embodiments, a heating element can be further implemented as a lighting element, for example, producing heat and light via at least one flame and/or based on glowing or illuminating when activated to emit heat. 
     Based on receiving and processing furnishing unit identification data  350 . 4 ,  350 . 5 , and  350 . 6  for these furnishing units, the client device displays experience option data  320  indicating options to turn on and/or configure the respective outputs of furnishing units. The user can interact with the corresponding interactive user interface  275  via user input, which is processed to render experience selection data  322 . For example, a corresponding user can elect to and/or perform a payment transaction via client device  130  to: turn on and/or configure lighting by furnishing unit  110 . 4 ; turn on and/or configure heating by furnishing unit  110 . 5 ; and/or turn on and/or configure audio output of speakers  110 . 6 . The experience selection data  322  can indicate lighting configuration data  382 , heating configuration data  384 , and/or speaker configuration data  386  accordingly. 
     This experience selection data can be processed via an experience control module, which can: process the lighting configuration data  382  to generate lighting control data  383  that is utilized to turn on and/or control the lighting provided by furnishing unit  110 . 4 ; process the heating configuration data  384  to generate heating control data  385  that is utilized to turn on and/or control the heating provided by furnishing unit  110 . 6 ; and/or process the speaker configuration data  386  to generate speaker control data  387  that is utilized to turn on and/or control the audio provided by furnishing unit  110 . 5 . 
     In some embodiments, the experience option data  320  displayed via the interactive user interface  275  can indicate configuration options for each of the set of furnishing units in proximal range, each of the set of furnishing units from which the client device collected furnishing unit identification data  350 , each of the set of furnishing units with which the client device established a communication channel for proximal-based communications  160 , and/or each of the set of set of furnishing units the user has elected to and/or paid to use and/or configure via user input to interactive user interface  275  and/or in their user account. In some embodiments, the experience option data  320  is displayed as a set of experience option data  320 , where each experience option data  320  corresponding to option for a given corresponding one of the set of furnishing units. In this example, a set of three experience option data corresponding to options for the set of furnishing unit  110 . 4 ,  110 . 5 ,  110 . 6  can be displayed one at a time and/or in a same view of interactive user interface  275  to facilitate selections by a corresponding user. In some embodiments, the user controls only a single furnishing unit  110  at a given time, where the experience option data  320  indicates configuration options for a single furnishing unit. 
     The experience option data  320  for a given furnishing unit  110  displayed via interactive user interface  275  can indicate two or more options for some or all experience facilitation elements  515  of the given furnishing unit  110 , and/or some or all types of corresponding controllable experiences facilitated via the given furnishing unit  110 . For example, the two or more options for each controllable experience facilitation element  515  and/or type of experience can be displayed one at a time and/or in a same view of interactive user interface  275  to facilitate selections by a corresponding user. In some embodiments, the given furnishing unit  110  has only one controllable experience facilitation element  515  and/or only one type of controllable experience (e.g. the furnishing unit is only operable to supply heating via one or more heaters, and this heating is configurable via selections to experience option data). 
     The set of two or more options for a given experience facilitation element  515  and/or type of controllable experience in experience option data can simply correspond to turning the corresponding experience facilitation element  515  on or off, and/or otherwise enabling or disabling the corresponding type of controllable experience. For example, a heater can be turned on or off, but its level of heating while turned on cannot be further configured. Alternatively or in addition, the set of two or more options for a given experience facilitation element  515  and/or type of controllable experience can include further configuration of the output of the experience facilitation element  515  and/or type of controllable experience when enabled, such as an intensity of the output, type of the output, location the output be applied, or other further configuration. This further configuration of the given experience facilitation element  515  and/or type of controllable experience can correspond to one or more discrete categories (e.g. intensity, location, duration, etc.) and/or each category can have two or more discrete options, or optionally a continuous set of options within a range (e.g. whether heating to be applied the back of the chair, bottom of the chair, or both; whether of intensity of heating in each location be high, medium, or low; duration for the heating; etc.). Some or all of these features of experience option data  320  can implement experience option data  655  for the corresponding furnishing unit and/or product. 
     The experience control module  430  can be implemented as a furnishing experience facilitation processing module  325  of  FIG. 5A . The experience control module  430  can alternatively or additionally be implemented via at least one processor and/or at least one memory of the client device itself, where client device  130  generates and transmits this control data to furnishing units  110  directly based on the configuration data of experience selection data  322 , for example, via proximity-based communications  160  and/or after establishing a corresponding communications channel between a given furnishing unit  110  based on signal identifier data  358  received from an identifier conveyance unit  201  of the given furnishing unit  110 . 
     Alternatively or in addition, this experience control module  430  can be implemented via at least one processor and/or at least one memory of furnishing processing system  120  of these furnishing units, where a furnishing processing system  120  receives the experience selection data  322  from a furnishing experience system  100 , for example, that received the experience selection data  322  from the client device  130 , and/or from the client device  130  directly, for example, via proximity-based communications  160  and/or after establishing a corresponding communications channel between a given furnishing unit  110  based on signal identifier data  358  received from an identifier conveyance unit  201  of the given furnishing unit  110 . In such embodiments, the furnishing processing system  120  can generate the control data itself that is utilized to control its experience facilitation elements  515  based on the experience selection data  322  generated by from the client device  130 . Alternatively or in addition, the experience control module  430  can be implemented via at least one processor and/or at least one memory of the furnishing experience system  100 , where client device  130  transmits experience selection data  322  to furnishing experience system  100 , where furnishing experience system  100  processes experience selection data  322  to generate this control data  383 ,  385 , and  387  and where the furnishing experience system  100  transmits this control data  383 ,  385 , and  387  to the respective furnishing units based on their furnishing unit identifier data  350  received from client device  130 . 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 6B , the output of nearby furnishing units  110  such as the example furnishing units  110 . 4 ,  110 . 5 , and  110 . 6  of  FIG. 6A  or other devices that are near the client device, are controllable even if the client device  130  does not receive and/or determine their respective furnishing unit identification data  350 . For example, these more auxiliary elements do not have their own furnishing unit identification data  350  and/or their furnishing unit identification data  350  is not determinable by client devices, but instead based on being near other furnishing units the user can interact with directly. For example, the user sits in a chair or interacts with another furnishing unit  110 . 1  and determines its furnishing unit identifier data  350 . 1 . These other furnishing units  110 . 4 ,  110 . 5 , and  110 . 6  can be in proximity to the chair or other furnishing unit  110 . 1  and/or can be mapped to the given furnishing unit  110 . 1  as controllable element mapping data  502 , which can be included in and/or determined from the furnishing unit  110 . 1 &#39;s unit-based contextual data  362  that is received from furnishing experience system  100 , is stored in local memory of client device  130 , and/or is indicated in the furnishing unit identification data  350  and/or other information collected based on the proximity-based interaction  111  with furnishing unit  110 . Experience selection data can similarly be generated based on user input as discussed in  FIG. 6A  to indicate configuration of these other furnishing units. The experience control module can utilize the controllable element mapping data  502  to generate and/or send control data to these other furnishing units, for example, based on the experience selection data and the furnishing unit identification data  350  of the furnishing unit  110 . 1 . 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 6C , output elements of the furnishing unit itself, such as one or more lamps or other lighting devices  456 , speakers  454  and/or heating elements  452  that are installed in and/or in proximity to the furnishing unit  110 , can be similarly controlled. For example, one or more lighting devices  456 , one or more speakers  454  and/or one or more heating elements  452  can be implemented as experience facilitation elements  515  of a corresponding furnishing processing system, and/or other types of experience facilitation elements  515  of the furnishing unit can be controlled similarly. 
     In some cases, preferences regarding user&#39;s configuration of various types of output devices can be configured by the user in configured preference data  596 , for example, as saved and/or learned experience selection data  322 . For example, when furnishing unit identification data  350  is determined based on a client device  130  of a user coming into proximity with a corresponding furnishing unit  110  as discussed previously, the corresponding furnishing unit and/or adjacent furnishing units mapped to this furnishing unit are automatically controlled via these saved and/or learned preferences, rather than necessitating that new experience selection data be selected via interaction with a graphical user interface displaying the experience option data. In some cases, the user is prompted via interactive user interface  275  whether they wish to pay for and/or initiate this control upon coming into contact with a new furnishing unit. 
     For example, a user select their preferred heating levels, where heaters of furnishing units in which the user has a proximity-based interaction  111  can automatically begin heating based on receiving the user&#39;s predetermined experience selection data  322  from client device  130  and/or furnishing experience system  100 . As another example, a recommended playlist is learned for the user in learned user characteristic data  585 , where speakers of furnishing units in which the user has a proximity-based interaction  111  can automatically begin playing songs from this learned playlist based on receiving the user&#39;s learned user characteristic data  585  from client device  130  and/or furnishing experience system  100 . 
     Different preferences can be learned and/or saved for different types of furnishing units  110 , such as different given products, furnishing units  110  at different establishments, and/or for particular furnishing units the user owns and/or has previously come into contact with. For example, different types of heating and/or lighting can be desirable at different establishments. As another example, the user may prefer different settings for different types of products, based on their respective output of heat, sound, and/or lighting being slightly different due to having different makes and models. 
     Different preferences can be learned and/or saved for other different contextual data, such as whether it is day or night, the weather and/or temperature outside, the current noise level of the establishment, of the and/or geographic region. For example, it can be desirable to turn heat on in freezing temperatures, but not in warm summer temperatures. As another example, it can be desirable to play speakers when there isn&#39;t already at least a threshold amount of ambient noise, while it may not be desirable to play speakers when it is already loud at the establishment. This current contextual data can be collected via one or more sensors and/or via the Internet, for example, where furnishing experience system  100  and/or client device  130  automatically presents options of experience option data  320  and/or recommends the configurations of experience selection data  322  based on this other contextual data. In some cases, these contextual based recommendations can be implemented as and/or be based on experience recommendation data  586  for the corresponding user. 
     In some embodiments, the experience option data  320  can be presented in conjunction with experience recommendation data  586  indicating recommendations for configuration of various output devices, such as playlist recommendations, heating level recommendations, audio volume recommendations, lighting level recommendations, entertainment content recommendations, VR and/or AR content recommendations, and/or other recommendations. 
     Such an embodiment is illustrated in the example of  FIG. 6D . Different configurations for configuration of nearby and/or interacted output devices, such as the example types of output as illustrated in  FIGS. 6A-6C  based on corresponding proximity-based interactions  111 , can be recommended to the user based on past and/or configured configurations of furnishing units by other users with similar characteristics and/or preferences in output configurations in their respective furnishing experience history. The recommendations can be alternatively or additionally based on other configurations by other users during times of day, noise levels, and/or weather, or other contexts that are correspondingly similar to the current weather, time of day, noise level, and/or other context. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 6D , the user can optionally configure various options via interaction with a displayed slide bar and/or other input mechanism enabling the user to configure output of the corresponding type of device and/or furnishing. The settings can optionally automatically be presented with recommended levels and/or configurations selected, for example, where the slide bar for heating level is initially set to 72% for heating based on 72% being the corresponding recommendation for the user. The user can elect to change the configurations, for example, where the user elects to configure heating to 90% rather than the recommended 72%. 
     In some embodiments, the experience option data  320  displayed via the interactive user interface  275  can indicate configuration options for each of the set of furnishing units in proximal range, each of the set of furnishing units from which the client device collected furnishing unit identification data  350 , each of the set of furnishing units with which the client device established a communication channel for proximal-based communications  160 , and/or each of the set of set of furnishing units the user has elected to and/or paid to use and/or configure via user input to interactive user interface  275  and/or in their user account. In some embodiments, the experience option data  320  is displayed as a set of experience option data  320 , where each experience option data  320  corresponding to option for a given corresponding one of the set of furnishing units. In this example, a set of three experience option data corresponding to options for the set of furnishing unit  110 . 4 ,  110 . 5 ,  110 . 6  can be displayed one at a time and/or in a same view of interactive user interface  275  to facilitate selections by a corresponding user. In some embodiments, the user controls only a single furnishing unit  110  at a given time, where the experience option data  320  indicates configuration options for a single furnishing unit. 
     The experience option data  320  for a given furnishing unit  110  displayed via interactive user interface  275  can indicate two or more options for some or all experience facilitation elements  515  of the given furnishing unit  110 , and/or some or all types of corresponding controllable experiences facilitated via the given furnishing unit  110 . For example, the two or more options for each controllable experience facilitation element  515  and/or type of experience can be displayed one at a time and/or in a same view of interactive user interface  275  to facilitate selections by a corresponding user. In some embodiments, the given furnishing unit  110  has only one controllable experience facilitation element  515  and/or only one type of controllable experience (e.g. the furnishing unit is only operable to supply heating via one or more heaters, and this heating is configurable via selections to experience option data). 
     The set of two or more options for a given experience facilitation element  515  and/or type of controllable experience in experience option data can simply correspond to turning the corresponding experience facilitation element  515  on or off, and/or otherwise enabling or disabling the corresponding type of controllable experience. For example, a heater can be turned on or off, but its level of heating while turned on cannot be further configured. Alternatively or in addition, the set of two or more options for a given experience facilitation element  515  and/or type of controllable experience can include further configuration of the output of the experience facilitation element  515  and/or type of controllable experience when enabled, such as an intensity of the output, type of the output, location the output be applied, or other further configuration. This further configuration of the given experience facilitation element  515  and/or type of controllable experience can correspond to one or more discrete categories (e.g. intensity, location, duration, etc.) and/or each category can have two or more discrete options, or optionally a continuous set of options within a range (e.g. whether heating to be applied the back of the chair, bottom of the chair, or both; whether of intensity of heating in each location be high, medium, or low; length of time the heating be applied; etc.). Some or all of these features of experience option data  320  can implement experience option data  655  for the corresponding furnishing unit and/or product. 
     The user can optionally revisit the interactive user interface  275  to adjust configuration of various experience facilitation elements  515  during their proximity-based interaction  111 , for example, to increase heating and/or lighting over time as the outdoor conditions become darker and colder during their evening use of the furnishing unit. For example, the same or different experience option data is presented to enable new selections. Alternatively or in addition, adjustments are automatically determined and controlled via the furnishing unit and/or the experience control module  430 , for example, based on collecting other sensor data or other information, where heat intensity is automatically increased over time due to detecting the time of day becoming later into the evening and/or due to detecting the ambient temperature has become colder. 
       FIGS. 7A-7G  illustrate example embodiments of proximity-based interactions  111  utilized to facilitate furnishing experiences that include purchasing experiences. Some or all features and/or functionality of client devices  130 , furnishing units  110 , and/or furnishing experience system  100  of  FIGS. 7A-7G  can be utilized to implement some or all features and/or functionality of other embodiments of client devices  130 , furnishing units  110 , and/or furnishing experience system  100  discussed herein. 
     As users detect and identify products in their vicinity based on proximity-based interactions  111  with corresponding furnishing units  110 , users can be presented with the option to purchase these products as experience option data  320 . Users can select any products they wish to rent and/or purchase, for example, based on the user wishing to have corresponding furnishings in their own home and their own business via interaction with interactive user interface  275 , where selected products for purchase can correspond to experience selection data  322 . The furnishing experience can correspond to facilitating a transaction to enable the user to pay for their selected products and/or facilitating shipping of the purchased products to the user&#39;s home and/or another preferred delivery address. For example, a merchant selling and/or stocking the product is identified in product data  169  of selected products for purchase via merchant identifier  689 , and the product is purchases from the merchant based on payment data  594  and/or shipping data  595  of the corresponding user&#39;s user account  165 . 
     This can improve the technology of purchasing systems based on not requiring users to visit stores that stock merchandise, while enabling users to physically inspect the products they wish to buy. Thus, this enhances the shopping experience beyond what is available via online shopping where users must rely on user reviews and/or pictures to make their purchases. Furthermore, a user can still select items for purchase via this physical inspection without having to go to the trouble to travel to a store for the dedicated purpose of purchasing items, where instead a users&#39; leisure time at various establishments they wish to visit for dining, social, and/or other types of experience doubly functions to facilitate the advantages of in-person shopping. This can further improve the technology of purchasing systems by enabling purchases to be processed more efficiently and/or to reduce a number of returns needed to be processed. 
     In some embodiments, an establishment stocking these products can be paid a commission for products purchased by users while at their establishment. For example, the establishment is paid by the merchant and/or the furnishing experience system  100  based on users having proximity-based interactions  111  at their establishment that lead to purchases of products. For example, the establishment is paid a predetermined fraction of all purchases made by users via proximity-based interactions  111  at their establishment, despite the establishment not selling and/or manufacturing these products themselves. Alternatively or in addition, a company and/or other entity associated with the furnishing experience system  100 , such as a company that hosts and/or maintains a corresponding server system and/or enables facilitation of corresponding furnishing experiences as described herein, can be paid a commission by merchants and/or establishments for all purchases, such as purchases products, goods, and/or services, made by made by users via proximity-based interactions  111  with furnishing units  110  while at one or more establishments. 
     In some embodiments, the establishment can optionally stock some items, for example, that are very popular, themselves to enable the user to carry their purchased product from the store rather than waiting for the product to be delivered to their home. Alternatively, the establishment does not sell any of its own stocked products to users, but merely utilizes these products as examples to motivate the users to buy duplicate products for themselves. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 7A , the furnishing unit identification data  350  can include and/or can be utilized to identify product identifiers  652  of corresponding products. As a user collects furnishing unit identification data  350  as discussed in conjunction with  FIGS. 5A-5J , the corresponding product identifiers  652  can be determined and can be utilized to generate the experience option data, indicating the option to purchase these detected products. The user can select any products they wish to purchase as experience selection data  322 . 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 7B , some products available for purchase may not have their own furnishing unit identifiers and/or may not have visible identifiers and/or beacons as discussed previously. The furnishing unit identification data  350  can include and/or can be utilized to identify product identifiers  652  of a given furnishing unit, such as a table in this example. Other products known to be associated with the furnishing unit, even if they are not currently in the vicinity of the furnishing unit, can be presented as options for purchase instead of or in addition to the given furnishing unit. In this example, based on identifying the table via furnishing unit identification data  350 . 2 , identifiers for related products  659  of the table can be determined via furnishing experience system  100  and/or local data stored in application data  212 . In this example, the related products include the items in place settings utilized to furnish the table at the establishment, such as a corresponding establishment&#39;s plates, cutlery, and glassware utilized to serve their food and drinks. Physical furnishing units  110  corresponding products may become available to the user while they are at the table, such as after their food arrives to the table. For example, a user can inspect their wine glass while drinking their glass of wine at the table to determine whether they wish to purchase this style of wine glass for their own home. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 7C , the purchasing experience can be presented as an augmented reality experience presented via an augmented reality display  327 . For example, a camera of the client device can collect image data of the user&#39;s vicinity, for example, based on the user having a proximity-based interaction  111  with a given furnishing unit  110 . As the camera  251  captures various objects that are processed via an object recognition processing module  219  as discussed in conjunction with  FIG. 5I , these objects can have overlaid information, such as their cost, product name, brand name, and/or other information relating to the product. The user can optionally interact with the display, for example, by clicking on products and/or their corresponding price to be directed to a website and/or other view of the interactive user interface directing the user to check out and/or purchase the selected products. 
     In this example, the user is optionally having a proximity-based interaction  111  with the chair in which they are sitting, and are capturing image data of their surroundings, such as the table they are sitting at. As another example, the user is optionally having a proximity-based interaction  111  with the table at which they are dining, and are capturing image data of their surroundings, such as the setting of this table. The client device  130  can be the user&#39;s smart phone and/or wearable device, an augmented reality headset and/or goggles and/or other client device owned by the user operable to facilitate an augmented reality display. Other augmented reality equipment for use by the user can optionally be owned by and/or included at the establishment, for example, for use by the user while having a proximity-based interaction  111  with a table and/or chair that has a wired and/or wireless connection with the chair and/or table, where this other augmented reality equipment presents the augmented reality display  327 . 
     Alternatively, the embodiment of  FIG. 7C  can similarly utilize the camera  251  captures various objects that are processed via an object recognition processing module  219  as discussed in conjunction with  FIG. 5I , but the detected products are optionally displayed in a list and/or table rather than as augmented reality data overlaid upon the captured image data. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 7D , in some embodiments, the products are presented as experience option data  320  that indicates and/or is further determined based on the recommendation data  586  for the corresponding user. For example, the products are sorted and/or displayed in accordance with recommendation scores of the recommendation data  586 , which can be determined based on learned user characteristics of the user and/or based on similarity to other users that, for example, ordered these items in the past and enjoyed these items as indicated in their respective furnishing unit histories. 
     In some embodiments, alternatively or in addition to purchasing products, users can elect to rent these products, for example, for an event being hosted by and/or for the user. For example, a user with an upcoming wedding may admire the decor and/or place settings at a particular establishment, and may wish to rent and/or purchase the chair, tables, decor, place settings, wedding dress, attire of guests in the wedding party, and/or other items for use to furnish their upcoming wedding. For example, the establishment  140  is a wedding venue hosting another wedding or another event, and/or the establishment otherwise includes decor and/or other furnishing units whose products are rentable for weddings. The user can similarly have proximity-based interactions  111  with various furnishing units  110  to identify products for rental at their own wedding, where the user can elect to rent the corresponding products and/or schedule a corresponding data for rental of the corresponding products via interactive user interface  275 . 
     As another example, a user with an upcoming wedding may admire other various furnishings they wish to add to their wedding registry or other wish list, for example, to furnish their home. The user can similarly have proximity-based interactions  111  with various furnishing units  110  to identify products for addition to their wedding registry, where other people can purchase these products for the user based on viewing the wedding registry. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 7E , the user can purchase other goods and/or services, for example, provided by the corresponding establishment  140  and/or relating to their proximity-based interaction  111  with furnishing units. For example, an establishment serving food and/or beverages can serve food to the user&#39;s table, identified via furnishing unit identification data  350 , based on the user selecting food to order from experience option data  320 . For example, a POS system or other system utilized to track and deliver menu order by users at a restaurant can communicate with and/or implement the furnishing experience system  100  and can be utilized to enable payment by the user to the establishment, and delivery of food and/or beverages ordered by the user as experience selection data  322  to the corresponding furnishing unit. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 7F , the user can optionally utilize their client device in a similar fashion as presented in  FIG. 7C  to detect goods and/or services, such as food and drink on the menu of the establishment, at other tables nearby, for example, via an augmented reality experience. 
     For example, a user contemplating what they wish to order can determine what was ordered at tables nearby. The user may be influenced by the smell or visual appearance of the food at neighboring tables, or based on observing the people at these neighboring tables reacting well or poorly to their dishes. Sometimes it can be difficult to discern exactly what another person ordered based on appearance alone, in trying to map the given food to a menu option, and the user may not wish to disturb other guests by asking what they ordered. 
     The client device can determine goods and services being utilized nearby, such as food at neighboring tables. As one example, the same or different object recognition processing module  219  of  FIG. 5J  is trained to detect different menu options of a given establishment and/or across multiple establishments as image data  312 . As another example, the food ordered by users currently dining at different chairs and/or tables via their respective client devices communicating with the furnishing experience system  100  can be stored, for example, as current status data  653  and/or other data determined based on receiving experience selection data  322  indicating the good and/or services selections, such as menu selection, by these other users via interaction with their client devices in conjunction with their proximity-based interactions with these nearby furnishings as discussed in conjunction with  FIG. 7E . 
     The detected menu items of neighboring tables, such as the names of these items on the menu, their respective costs, and/or clickable elements to direct the user to their description and/or enable the user to order these items, can be displayed, for example, as the user&#39;s camera pans to these tables and/or as an augmented reality display  327 . Alternatively, the menu items or other detected goods and/or services are optionally displayed in a list and/or table rather than as augmented reality data overlaid upon the captured image data. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 7F , in some embodiments, the goods and/or services are presented as experience option data  320  that indicates and/or is further determined based on the recommendation data  586  for the corresponding user. For example, the menu items are sorted and/or displayed in accordance with recommendation scores of the recommendation data  586 , which can be determined based on learned user characteristics of the user and/or based on similarity to other users that, for example, ordered these items in the past and enjoyed these items as indicated in their respective furnishing unit histories. 
       FIGS. 8A-8F  illustrate example embodiments of proximity-based interactions  111  utilized to facilitate furnishing experiences that include social experiences. Some or all features and/or functionality of client devices  130 , furnishing units  110 , and/or furnishing experience system  100  of  FIGS. 8A-8F  can be utilized to implement some or all features and/or functionality of other embodiments of client devices  130 , furnishing units  110 , and/or furnishing experience system  100  discussed herein. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 8A , a social experience module  850  can be operable to generate and send proximity-based connection notifications  862  to client devices based on detecting sets of users, such as pairs of users or three or more users, are in physical proximity. For example, the social experience module  850  is implemented via at least one processor and/or at least one memory of furnishing experience system  100  and/or via at least one processor and/or at least one memory of one or more client devices  130 . 
     In this example, two client devices  130 .A and  130 .B, corresponding to two users John and Sally, respectively, have proximity-based interactions  111  with furnishing units  110 . 1  and  110 . 2 , respectively, at a same given time, within overlapping timeframes, and/or at two times with a temporal difference that compares favorably to a predetermined threshold temporal difference. The experience option data  320  generated for these two users John and Sally by social experience module  850  indicates proximity-based connection data notifications  862  based on the social experience module determining a physical distance  848  between furnishing units  110 . 1  and  110 . 2  is favorable, for example, based on being within and/or otherwise comparing favorably to a maximum distance and/or other proximity threshold as discussed in conjunction with  FIG. 8C . For example, user John receives proximity-based connection data notifications  862 .A indicating that user Sally is nearby, and/or user Sally receives proximity-based connection data notifications  862 .B indicating that user John is nearby based on their physical distance  848  being determined to be favorable. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 8B , social experience module  850  can determine these proximity-based interactions  111  based on receiving and/or determining the furnishing unit identification data  350 . 1  and  350 . 2  of furnishing units  110 . 1  and  110 . 2 , respectively. For example, client devices  130 .A and  130 .B collect furnishing unit identification data  350 . 1  and  350 . 2 , respectively, as discussed in conjunction with  FIGS. 5A-5J . This can be utilized to identify the respective locations of furnishing units  110 . 1 - 110 . 2 , for example, based on location data  660  of their respective furnishing unit data  166 . The physical distance  848  can be determined by social experience module  850  as a function of location data  660 . 
       FIGS. 8C and 8D  present another embodiment of the social experience module  850 . Some or all features of social experience module  850  of  FIGS. 8C and/or 8D  can be utilized to implement the social experience module  850  of  FIG. 8A  and/or any other embodiment of social experience module  850 , and/or a corresponding furnishing experience system  100 , described herein. 
     As illustrated in  FIGS. 8C and 8D , the social experience module  850  can be operable to determine a currently utilized furnishing unit set  851  at a given time, for example, based on ones of the furnishing units  110  with furnishing unit data  166  with current status data  653  denoting corresponding users, denoted with user identifiers  636 , are currently having and/or recently had proximity-based interactions  111  with these furnishing units. The locations of these furnishing units can further be indicated, for example, based on location data  660  of furnishing unit data  166  of the corresponding furnishing units, which can indicate an establishment identifier  610  and/or physical location data  615  indicating a geolocation, address, and/or location of the furnishing unit within the corresponding establishment. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 8C , the user identifiers of a given user currently utilizing a given furnishing unit  110  can be based on receiving furnishing unit identification data  350  indicating the furnishing unit identifier  650  and/or establishment identifier  610  of the given furnishing unit from a client device  130  of the given user based on the client device collecting and/or transmitting this furnishing unit identification data  350  as discussed previously. Alternatively or in addition, as illustrated in  FIG. 8D , the user identifiers of a given user currently utilizing a given furnishing unit  110  can be based on receiving current status data  653  indicating these user identifiers  636  from corresponding furnishing processing systems  120 , for example, based on pairing with and/or receiving user identifiers  636  from corresponding client devices  130  in proximity-based communications  160  with these client devices  130 . 
     In such embodiments, geolocation data of the client devices  130  and/or corresponding users themselves optionally need not be utilized, for example, based on the respective locations and/or approximate locations being determinable directly from the known locations of the furnishing units  110 , and the knowledge that client devices  130 .A and  130 .B are currently and/or were recently in proximity of these furnishing units based on determining the client devices has their proximity-based interactions  111  with these furnishing units. Alternatively, in other embodiments, geolocation data received the client devices  130  and/or corresponding users can be utilized instead of or in addition to the known locations of the furnishing units  110 . 
     A proximity-based connection determination module  855  can be operable to generate proximity-based connection data  856  based on the currently used furnishing unit set  851 . This can include comparing various distances between location data  660  of some or all possible pairs of furnishing units  110  in the currently used furnishing unit set  851  with one or more proximity based thresholds  853 . Some or all pairs of furnishing units  110  in the currently used furnishing unit set  851  can have their corresponding user IDs  636  of users currently utilizing these furnishing units as denoted in currently used furnishing unit set  851  indicated in a proximity-based pairing  857 . A proximity-based connection notification  862  can be generated for one or more both users in some or all proximity-based pairings  857  indicating the other user in the proximity based pairing. 
     Proximity threshold  853  can dictate furnishing units being within a same establishment, for example, regardless of the size of the establishment. For example, a given pair users are only connected via proximity-based connection notifications  862  if their corresponding furnishing units  110  are within the same establishment  140 . Proximity threshold  853  can dictate furnishing units being within a same given room and/or same physical region within establishment. For example, a given pair users are only connected via proximity-based connection notifications  862  if their corresponding furnishing units  110  are within the same room and/or physical boundary within the same establishment. Proximity threshold  853  can alternatively correspond to a threshold distance, such as a number of meters, blocks, and/or kilometers between furnishing units and/or different establishments in which different furnishing units are located. For example, a given pair users are only connected via proximity-based connection notifications  862  if their corresponding furnishing units  110  are within establishments  140  that are within the threshold distance from each other, and/or are otherwise at locations that are within this threshold distance. Proximity threshold  853  can alternatively correspond to a threshold travel time, such as an expected amount of time for travel between the establishments the user to travel via car, bike, foot, and/or public transit. For example, a given pair users are only connected via proximity-based connection notifications  862  if their corresponding furnishing units  110  are within establishments  140  that are within the threshold travel time from each other, and/or are otherwise at locations that are within this threshold travel time. 
     Different users can optionally configure their own proximity thresholds, for example, based on how far they wish to relocate to physically connect with another user. For example, a given pair users are only connected via proximity-based connection notifications  862  if their corresponding furnishing units  110  compare favorably to the proximity thresholds configured by both users. As another example, a first user in a given pair of users receives proximity-based connection notifications  862  based on the two furnishing units  110  in the pair comparing favorably to the proximity thresholds configured by this first user, while the second user in the given pair of users does not receive proximity-based connection notifications  862  based on the two furnishing units  110  in the pair comparing unfavorably to the proximity threshold configured by this second user. Alternatively or in addition, the proximity threshold can be predetermined by the social experience module  850  and/or a corresponding administrator. 
     Users can elect to communicate via chat, voice, and/or video communications in response to receiving the proximity-based connection notifications  862 , for example, via a communications platform facilitated via social experience module  850 . This election to elect to communicate via chat, voice, and/or video communications can correspond to experience selection data  322 . The corresponding furnishing experience can include the facilitation of these chat, voice, and/or video communications. In some embodiments, communications are only enabled once both users in a given pair elect to communicate with the other respective user via interactive user interface  275  and/or via their configured preferences in their user accounts. 
     Alternatively or in addition to indicating a name and/or identifier of the other user in the proximity based pairing, a given proximity-based connection notification  862  can indicate the location data  660  of the other corresponding furnishing unit  110  when presented via interactive user interface  275 , such as an address, name of the corresponding establishment, and/or location of the furnishing unit within its given establishment such as, for example, “rooftop”, “ballroom”, “back left corner”, “to the right of the bar” and/or “back patio space”. Navigation data can optionally be presented to the user via interactive user interface  275  to direct a first user to the location of the other user in the pairing. The corresponding furnishing experience can include the facilitation of an in-person meetup via presentation of the location data  660  of the other corresponding furnishing unit  110 . In some embodiments, locations of a first user in a given pair is only presented to a second user in a given pair if the first user elects to share their location with the second user via interactive user interface  275  and/or via their configured preferences in their user accounts. 
     In some embodiments, if connected users are currently at different respective establishment and elect to meet-up in person, the proximity-based connection notification  862  can be generated to indicate a proposed meet-up location to which both users can relocate to meet in person. The proposed meet-up location can be automatically selected, for example, based on an intermediate point between the two users and/or having a similar distance from both users. 
     The proposed meet-up location can be automatically indicated as a selected establishment selected from a set of establishments  140 , for example, with corresponding entries in the establishment database and/or with furnishing units  110  of the furnishing experience system  100 . The selected establishment  140  can be selected based on its respective location from the two other locations at which the users are currently located, such as a midpoint and/or being relatively equidistant from both current locations. Alternatively or in addition, the selected establishment  140  can be selected based on being similar to the two establishments  140  the respective pair of users are currently located, such as based on having a similarity score with one or more both establishments via performance of a similarity function that compares favorably to a similarity score threshold. This can be ideal in ensuring users are not relocated to a type of establishment that is too different in atmosphere, type of food served, and/or other learned and/or known characteristics from their current establishment. Alternatively or in addition, the selected establishment  140  can be selected based on being a recommended establishment  610  in experience recommendation data  585  for one or both users. This can be ideal in ensuring users are expected to enjoy relocating to the new establishment, even if their meetup with the other user ends up not being as favorable as they hoped. 
       FIG. 8E  presents another embodiment of the social experience module  850 . Some or all features of social experience module  850  of  FIG. 8E  can be utilized to implement the social experience module  850  of  FIG. 8A  and/or any other embodiment of social experience module  850 , and/or a corresponding furnishing experience system  100 , described herein. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 8E , the proximity-based connection data can be optionally based on existing social contacts of users identified in currently used furnishing unit set  851 . For example, a first user is only paired with a second user, and/or corresponding proximity-based connection notifications  862  are only sent to these users, when the first user and second user have a prior and/or existing connection, for example, in their social connection data  513 . In this example, John receives the proximity-based connection notifications  862  indicating Sally based on Sally&#39;s social connection data  513  indicating John&#39;s user identifier, and/or further based on John&#39;s social connection data  513  indicating Sally&#39;s user identifier. 
     The social connection data indicating a given pair of users can optionally be generated when this pairing is first identified. For example, the two users John and Sally may be strangers that have never met in person or virtually, but can elect to connect in this instance despite being strangers. For example, users can configure their configured preference data  596  to indicate whether they are open to meeting strangers, and/or whether they wish to only be connected with existing contacts in social connection data  513  with which they previously connected, for example via social experience module  850  in a prior temporal period and/or otherwise knew previously and denoted as a social connection in their social connection data  513 . 
     In such embodiments, experience feedback data  616  can optionally be collected for both users during and/or after their virtual and/or in-person connection, for example, where John and Sally only persist in each other&#39;s social connection data  513  when both John and Sally provide favorable experience feedback data  616  for the social connection. For example, John and Sally can be paired in future instances when their respective furnishing units compare favorably to the proximity threshold  853  based on having previously connected, for example, initially as strangers, and further based on having both provided favorable experience feedback data  616  for some or all prior connections and/or otherwise indicating they would meet up with this user again if they were nearby. 
       FIG. 8F  presents another embodiment of the social experience module  850 . Some or all features of social experience module  850  of  FIG. 8F  can be utilized to implement the social experience module  850  of  FIG. 8A  and/or any other embodiment of social experience module  850 , and/or a corresponding furnishing experience system  100 , described herein. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 8F , the proximity-based connection data can be optionally based on identifying pairs of users that are expected to have a favorable connection, for example, when the two users are strangers and/or are otherwise not prior contacts indicated in each other&#39;s social contact data  513 . This can include implementing a similarity-based connection determination module  859 , for example, to perform a similarity function  817  to generate a similarity score  871  for some or all pairs of possible users, and/or for only pairs of users with respective locations of their furnishing units  110  already determined to compare favorably to proximity thresholds. 
     For example, performing similarity function can be based on comparing some or all information in user account, such as learned user characteristic data  585 , demographic data  592 , and/or other information indicated in and/or derived from user-based furnishing experience history. For example, users that enjoy similar types of experiences, similar types of establishments, having visited and/or enjoyed same establishments, live in similar locations, are similar ages, enjoy similar types of food, have purchased similar types of products, and/or are otherwise determined to be similar can have favorable similarity scores  871  generated accordingly and/or can be paired accordingly. 
     In some embodiments, another user in a same pair as a given user based on being identified as similar and/or likely to have a favorable connection can be identified in and/or implemented as the given user&#39;s recommendation data  586 , where these proposed connections are presented to the user as recommended options of presented experience option data  320  presented via interactive user interface  275  and/or correspond to recommended furnishing experiences for the given user. 
     Alternatively or in addition, performing similarity function can be based on the similarity of the respective establishments in which the users are currently located. For example, the users are paired based on currently being located in establishments with a similarity score that compare favorably to a similarity threshold, such as predetermined threshold value. Alternatively or in addition, performing similarity function can be based on whether the respective establishment at which a given user is currently located is a recommended establishment in experience recommendation data  586  for the other user in the pair. Such establishment-based pairings can be ideal in ensuring that if one user relocates to the establishment of the other user, their experience at the other establishment is expected to be similar and/or expected to be enjoyed by this one user, which can be ideal in ensuring the one user&#39;s general experience is not disrupted even if their meeting with the other user ends up not being favorable. 
     Users can optionally configure one or more types of connection in which they are interested, such as whether they are interested in social, professional, and/or romantic connections, for example, in configured preference data  596 , and are optionally connected with users looking for one or more of the types of connections. Similarity functions for different types of connections are optionally different, for example, where the relevant data and/or criteria for a professional connection that would induce a favorable similarity score is different from the relevant data and/or criteria for a romantic connection that would induce a favorable similarity score. 
     In some embodiments, different proximity thresholds can be configured by a user for different ones of their social connections and/or different types of connections, for example, in configured preference data  596  based on user input to interactive user interface  275 . For example, a given user may indicate they are only interested in meeting new people if they are located within the same given establishment, but that they would be willing to relocate multiple blocks to a different restaurant or bar to meetup with prior connections. Particular people with which the user is more interested in reconnecting can be configured with proximity thresholds of greater distances accordingly. Particular types of people, as indicated in data stored in users accounts  165 , with which the user is interested in connecting, for example, for the first time, can be configured with proximity thresholds of particular configured distances accordingly. 
     In some cases, users can be connected based on similarity scores regardless of their current locations. For example, users can be prompted to meet up at an establishment identified automatically as being recommended for both users at a later time based on these users having a favorable similarity score. 
     In some cases, the type of establishment can further come into account, for example, where pair of users are only paired based on the respective establishment in which one or both users are located. For example, a user indicates they are only interested in meeting up with other users if they are also located in the same type of establishment and/or at another establishment with a similarity score with the establishment at which the user is currently located that compares favorably to a similarity threshold, for example, based on having a same type of atmosphere, serving the same type of food, having similar types of furnishing units, and/or otherwise being learned and/or known to be of a same or similar type. As another example, the user can indicate they only wish to relocate to particular types of establishments, for example, where the user elects to relocate only if the destination location is and/or includes a bar. As another example, the user can indicate that they wish to relocate only if the destination location serves a particular type and/or brand of food and/or beverage. For example, the user indicates they will only relocate to bars that serve French fries and/or a particular make of whiskey. As another example, the user can indicate they only wish to relocate to establishments that have a recommendation score for the user that is at least as favorable as a recommendation threshold, and/or that is otherwise recommended for the user in experience recommendation data  586 . As another example, the user can indicate they only wish to relocate to establishments that the user has previously visited and/or that have favorable experience feedback data  616  for example, as indicated in their user-based furnishing experience data  512 . Some or all of these preferences can be indicated in filtering parameter data and/or configured preference data utilized to filter parameters recommended for the user as discussed in conjunction with  FIG. 9C  and/or  FIG. 9D . 
     In some embodiments, proximity thresholds can be automatically adjusted based on the similarity score for a given pair of users, for example, where greater distances are deemed acceptable in proximity thresholds when the corresponding similarity score is high and/or exceeds a configured threshold, while closer proximity is required by proximity thresholds when the corresponding similarity score is lower and/or does not exceed a configured threshold. For example, the threshold distance indicated by proximity thresholds is an increasing function of similarity score, where more favorable similarity scores induce greater distance maximums. 
       FIGS. 9A-9I  illustrate embodiments of location guidance facilitated to inform users of and/or direct users to furnishing units  110  and/or establishments  140  in various locations. Some or all features and/or functionality of client devices  130 , furnishing experience system  100 , and/or furnishing units  110  of  FIGS. 9A-9I  can be utilized to implement client devices  130 , furnishing experience system  100 , and/or furnishing units  110  of other embodiments discussed herein. 
     As illustrated in  9 A, a location information communication module  870  can be operable to send an establishment set  771  indicating a set of some or all possible establishments for view by the user via interactive user interface  275 . Alternatively or in addition, as illustrated in  9 B, a location information communication module  870  can be operable to send a furnishing unit set  777  indicating a set of some or all possible furnishing units for view by the user via interactive user interface  275 . For example, the location information communication module  870  is implemented via at least one processor and/or at least one memory of furnishing experience system  100 , via at least one processor and/or at least one memory of furnishing processing systems  120 , and/or via at least one processor and/or at least one memory of one or more client devices  130 . 
     In these instances, the user is optionally not currently engaging in a proximity-based interaction  111  with a furnishing unit  110 , and instead is looking to browse, select, and/or be directed to the location of possible furnishing units  110  and/or possible establishments  140 . For example, once the user selects a particular furnishing unit  110  and/or particular establishments  140  based on browsing and selecting from a corresponding furnishing unit set  777  and/or establishment set, the user can receive the location of and/or navigation data directing the user to the selected furnishing unit  110  and/or establishments  140 . Upon arriving at the location of the selected furnishing unit  110  and/or establishment  140 , the user can have at least one proximity-based interaction  111  with the selected furnishing unit  110  and/or with one or more furnishing units  110  at the selected establishment  140 , respectively. 
     Alternatively, this information can be presented in conjunction with facilitating a furnishing experience and/or presenting experience option data  320 , based on the user already engaging in a proximity-based interaction with a furnishing unit  110 . For example, the user can be presented with a set of other furnishing units and/or other establishments as options for where to head to next, from their current location at the given furnishing unit and/or corresponding establishment, for further furnishing experiences, such as a nearby restaurant and/or bar with its own furnishing units  110 . 
     The establishment set  771  can indicate names, locations of, a type of establishment, and/or other data of one or more establishments  140 . The furnishing unit set  777  can indicate unique identifiers of, locations of, type of product, and/or other data of one or more furnishing units  110 . 
     The respective locations of establishments and/or furnishing units can optionally be depicted graphically upon a map and/or overhead image data presented via interactive user interface  275  depicting a geographic region that includes these establishments and/or furnishing units. Navigation instructions can optionally be visually presented via interactive user interface  275  to direct the user to the locations of selected establishments and/or furnishing units by car, bike, foot, a rideshare system, and/or public transportation. The user can optionally be navigated to a furnishing unit within an establishment, such as “head outside to the back left corner next to the rose bush.” 
     The possible establishments of an establishment set  771  optionally correspond only to establishments  140  in the establishment database  164 , and/or that have furnishing units  110  and/or products of the furnishing experience system The possible furnishing units  110  of a furnishing unit set  777  optionally correspond only to furnishing units  110  in furnishing unit database  163 , and/or products of product database  168 , such as furnishing units  110  with known locations and/or products known to be at particular establishments. 
     The establishment set  771  and/or furnishing unit set  777  can optionally be filtered subsets selected from a full set of establishments and/or furnishing units. For example, establishment set  771  is selected as a proper subset of all establishments in establishment database  164 . As another example, furnishing unit set  777  is selected as a proper subset of all establishments in furnishing unit database  163 . 
       FIGS. 9C and 9D  illustrate such embodiments of a location information communication system  870  that generate the establishment set  771  and/or furnishing unit set  777  sent to client devices of one or more users via an establishment filtering module  955  and/or a furnishing unit filtering module  956 . Some or all features and/or functionality of the location information communication system  870  of  FIGS. 9C and/or 9D  can implement the location information communication system  870  of  FIGS. 9A and/or 9B , respectively, and/or any other embodiment of location information communication system  870  described herein. 
     The establishment set  771  can be generated as a filtered subset of a plurality of possible establishments and/or the furnishing unit set  777  can be generated as a filtered subset of a plurality of possible furnishing units  110  based on: filtering parameter data  773  received by the user based on their current and/or recent interaction with interactive user interface  275 , starting location data  778  configured by and/or determined or the user; configured preference data  595  stored in and/or accessed from the user&#39;s user account  165 ; learned user characteristic data  585  generated for the given user; and/or experience recommendation data generated for the given user. 
     The establishment set  771  can be generated based on accessing and/or generating experience recommendation data  586  for the user, where the establishment set  771  indicates a set of establishments recommended for the user to visit as discussed previously. Different users can have different establishment sets  771  generated based on having different experience recommendation data  586 . 
     The establishment set  771  can alternatively or additionally be generated based on the starting location data  778 , such as the user&#39;s current location and/or a configured starting location, where establishments are selected based on being within proximity of the starting location data  778 . For example, only establishments whose distance from starting location data  778  compares favorably to a proximity threshold  853  are indicated in establishment set  771  for the user. Different users can have different establishment sets  771  generated based on having different starting location data  778 . The user&#39;s current location can optionally be based on location data  660  of a furnishing unit  110  with which the current is currently interacting and/or has recently interacted. 
     Alternatively or in addition, the filtering parameter data  773 , configured preference data  595 , and/or learned user characteristic data  585  can indicate one or more user selections and/or learned preferences regarding filtering of establishments, such as: a name of the particular establishment; configured type of establishment; particular types and/or brands of food and/or beverages served at the establishment; particular brand of the establishment; particular owner, chef, mixologist, barista, and/or other particular prominent personnel and/or particular type of prominent personnel; maximum physical and/or travel distance to the establishment, such as a user configured proximity threshold  853  as discussed in conjunction with  FIGS. 8A-8F , from a starting location indicated in starting location data  778  such as the users current location, users home, or other configured starting location; one or more product names of furnishing units  110  and/or other products included in the establishment; operating hours of the establishment; configured crowds at the establishment, for example, denoting configured preferences for current wait time, parking availability, crowdedness of the establishment, and/or availability of furnishing units  110 , such as chairs and/or tables, at the establishment; configured social connections and/or number of social connections of the user currently at the establishment; configured configuration of furnishing units at the establishment, current weather, noise, and/or atmosphere conditions at the establishment; and/or other configured preference regarding various characteristics of the establishment. One or more of these configured preferences can optionally be received from client device  130  as selections indicated in experience selection data  322  based on a user having a proximity-based interaction with a furnishing unit  110 . Different users can have different establishment sets  771  generated based on having filtering parameter data  773 , configured preference data  595 , and/or learned user characteristic data  585 . 
     For example, these preferences are compared to known, current and/or learned characteristics of corresponding establishments in the establishment database  164 , such as its address and/or location, its learned establishment characteristic data  647 , product identifiers  652 , establishment layout data  673 , current data of the establishment, and/or other data for the establishment. For example, only ones of the plurality of possible establishments  140  with requirements indicated to be met by the establishments respective data are included in the establishment set  771 . 
     Current data for these establishments, such as weather, how crowded the establishment is, and/or atmosphere of the establishment, can optionally be collected via the Internet. Current data for the establishment, such how crowded the establishment is and/or how many furnishing units are currently available can be based on current status data  653  of its furnishing units. Estimated current data for the establishment, such how crowded the establishment is, how favorable the current atmosphere is, or how favorable being at the establishment currently is. can be automatically generated based on: recently received experience feedback data  616  for proximity-based interactions with furnishing units at this establishment, for example, that are with users similar to the given user; and/or historical current status data  653  for proximity-based interactions with furnishing units at this establishment, for example, that are with users similar to the given user, and/or that are at similar times of day, similar days of the week, and/or similar times of year. 
     The establishment set  771  can optionally be generated for a given user based on information regarding a current establishment at which the user is currently located, where the current establishment is optionally indicated as the starting location data  778 . The user can be determined to be currently located at this current establishment based on an establishment identifier  610 . This establishment identifier  610  can optionally be indicated in furnishing unit identification data  350  received from the client device  130  of a proximity-based interaction currently or recently had by the user. This establishment identifier  610  can alternatively or additionally be determined based on a furnishing processing system  120  of a furnishing unit at the establishment identifying the user identifier  636  of the corresponding user. This establishment identifier  610  can alternatively or additionally be determined based on determining a geolocation and/or current address of the user, received from and/or generated by the client device  130 , is within and/or is in proximity of a corresponding geolocation and/or address of the establishment  140  corresponding to this establishment identifier  610 . 
     Establishments can be selected for inclusion in establishment set  771  based on only including other establishments of a same type as the current establishment at which the user is currently located and/or establishment having a similarity score with the current establishment at which the user is currently located that compares favorably to a similarity threshold, for example, based on having a same type of atmosphere, serving the same type of food, having similar types of furnishing units, having similar learned establishment characteristic data, and/or otherwise being learned and/or known to be of a same or similar type. 
     In some embodiments, proximity thresholds can be automatically adjusted based on the similarity score for a current establishment and establishments for inclusion the establishment set  771 , and/or a recommendation score of establishments for inclusion the establishment set  771  for example, where greater distances of travel are deemed acceptable in proximity thresholds when the corresponding similarity score and/or recommendation score is high and/or exceeds a configured threshold, while closer proximity is required by proximity thresholds when the corresponding similarity score and/or recommendation score is lower and/or does not exceed a configured threshold. For example, the threshold distance indicated by proximity thresholds is an increasing function of similarity score and/or recommendation score, where more favorable similarity scores and/or/or recommendation score induce greater distance maximums. 
     Furnishing unit set  777  can be selected in a same or similar fashion as the establishment set  771 . The furnishing unit set can be selected based on further configurations by and/or learned preferences for the user relating specifically to furnishing units such as: preferences regarding whether the furnishing unit is located indoors or outdoors; preferences regarding the room within an establishment and/or floor within an establishment; preferences regarding the product type and/or product identifier of the furnishing unit; preferences regarding layout and/or relative proximity to other furnishing units; preferences regarding type of furnishing experiences available via proximity-based interactions  111  with the furnishing unit; preference regarding maximum wait time until the furnishing unit becomes available; and/or other preferences relating to the furnishing unit. 
     For example, these preferences are compared to known, current and/or learned characteristics of corresponding furnishing units  110  in the furnishing unit database  163 , such as its location data  660 , its learned establishment characteristic data  647 , its product identifier  652 , its establishment identifier  610 , current status data of the furnishing unit, experience option data  320  for the furnishing unit, and/or other data for the furnishing units  110 . For example, only ones of the plurality of possible furnishing units  110  with requirements indicated to be met by the establishments respective data are included in the furnishing unit set  777 . 
     For example, the user may only wish to go to a particular establishment if it has furnishing units that meet particular criteria, instead of or in addition to criteria for the destination establishment as a whole. For example, a user only wishes to visit an establishment at a given time if it is within 10 miles of the user&#39;s current location, has a particular brand of chair implementing furnishing unit  110  currently available for use outside in non-rainy weather, with configurable heaters that deliver heat to the user as a furnishing experience, where this establishment also serves food and beverage to these outdoor furnishing units, and where the menu of the establishment includes hot chocolate. Inclusion of establishments in an establishment set  771  can be based on such criteria for furnishing units  110  within the establishments. 
     In some embodiments, the user is already at and/or near a given establishment, and wishes to identify an available furnishing unit  110  within the establishment, for example, so that they can easily find available seating and/or so that they can easily find a furnishing unit that meets their configured criteria. The furnishing unit set  777  can optionally indicate locations of and/or other information for some or all furnishing units within this given establishment  140 . The user can be directed to a given furnishing unit in the furnishing unit set  777 , such as a recommended furnishing unit and/or furnishing unit meeting configured criteria. For example, instructions such as “Head upstairs and turn left at the bar” and/or “look for the purple chair” can be displayed. 
     For example, the user can view a contextual layout display of the establishment presented via interactive user interface  275  that indicates a layout of, and/or image data capturing, the interior and/or exterior of the establishment. The locations of various furnishing units  110  are indicated within this contextual layout display. Different furnishing units  110  can be visually denoted in the display with different colors and/or other visible differences denoting whether they are available, which type of product they correspond to, which types of furnishing experience they facilitate, and/or whether or not they meet the user&#39;s configured criteria. The user can optionally click on and/or otherwise select particular furnishing units in the contextual layout display to reserve and/or to view additional data. This contextual layout display can optionally indicate and/or implement the furnishing unit set  777 . 
     In some cases, dynamic output data, such as particular colored lighting of lighting devices of the furnishing unit and/or text or other data displayed via a display device  209  of the furnishing unit, can denote the particular furnishing unit  110  the user has reserved, the particular furnishing unit  110  assigned to the user, and/or the particular furnishing unit  110  the user has selected to locate within the establishment. For example, a lighting device flashes purple for the given user based on the user selecting this furnishing unit, where interactive user interface  275  displays the given chair in contextual layout display as flashing purple or otherwise denotes that the user search for a purple flashing chair. At the same time, another nearby chair flashes a different color to denote they are selected by and/or reserved for a different user, so that these two different furnishing units are not confused by the two different users. As another example, the display device displays the user&#39;s name or other code unique to the user and/or assigned to that user to denote their identification of and/or use of the corresponding furnishing unit. 
       FIG. 9E  illustrates an embodiment where establishment recommendation data  772  is generated for example, based on a ranking of one or more establishments  140  in the establishment set and/or based on otherwise being selected as a filtered subset of a plurality of options as discussed in conjunction with in  FIGS. 9C and 9D . The establishment recommendation data  772  can indicate an establishment B and/or can indicate corresponding furnishing unit  110 . 2  within this establishment B. For example, the establishment recommendation data  772  is implemented as establishment set  771  that includes only one establishment, or a small number of establishments. The establishment recommendation data  772  can alternatively or additionally be included in or implemented as the corresponding user&#39;s experience recommendation data  586 . Some or all features and/or functionality of the location information communication system  870  of  FIG. 9E  can implement the location information communication system  870  of  FIG. 9A  and/or any other embodiment of the location information communication system  870 . 
       FIG. 9F  illustrates an embodiment where the establishment recommendation data  772  is implemented as experience option data  320 , and/or furnishing experience data, presented to the user based on a proximity-based furnishing interaction  111  with a furnishing unit  110 . 1 . For example, establishment recommendation data  772  indicates establishment B and/or furnishing unit  110 . 2  based on a physical distance  848 , determined between establishment A and establishment B, and/or between furnishing unit  110 . 1  and furnishing unit  110 . 2 , being determined to compare favorably to the proximity threshold  853 . Some or all features and/or functionality of the location information communication system  870  of  FIG. 9F  can implement the location information communication system  870  of  FIG. 9E  and/or any other embodiment of the location information communication system  870 . 
       FIG. 9G  illustrates an embodiment where the user can view current availability of furnishing units at one or more establishments and/or can elect to reserve a chair, for example, at an establishment recommended to and/or selected by the user and/or for a particular furnishing unit recommended and/or reserved by the user as discussed in conjunction with  FIG. 9A-9F . Some or all features and/or functionality of the location information communication system  870  of  FIG. 9G  can implement the location information communication system  870  of  FIG. 9A  and/or any other embodiment of the location information communication system  870 . 
     The user can be presented with the option to reserve the furnishing unit  110  based on having current status data  653  indicating it is currently available, and/or is not yet reserved in a time frame selected by the user to reserve the corresponding furnishing unit  110 . If the user elects to reserve a chair via interaction with interactive user interface  275 , the location information communication system  870  can optionally set current status data of the corresponding furnishing unit  110  to “reserved” or “in use” rather than “available” for the current time, and/or for a scheduled time selected by the user. This can be ideal if the user is already at the establishment or at an establishment nearby, and only wishes to relocate if they can guarantee a furnishing unit  110  will be available for their use when they arrive at the corresponding establishment and/or the corresponding location of the given furnishing unit. The user can optionally pay a fee to reserve the furnishing unit  110 . 
     In cases where furnishing units  110  and/or locations are very popular and/or rarely available, the user can optionally elect to be alerted with particular furnishing units meeting their criteria become available at a selected establishment and/or at any establishment meeting their criteria. For example, the user is currently at a first bar, but wishes to relocate to the second bar once a rooftop chair becomes available.

     In various embodiments, one or more furnishing units  110  described herein are implemented via heating-capable furniture, such as chairs. In various embodiments, the one or more furnishing units  110  is deployed in an outside environment where people gather and where the air temperature may become uncomfortably cold. In various embodiments, the one or more furnishing units  110  includes cooling-capable furniture for outside situations where the air temperature may become uncomfortably warm. 
     In various embodiments, a furnishing unit  110  can include a resistive heating element. For example, one or more embodiments of the resistive heating element described below implement one or more experience facilitation elements  515  of furnishing processing system  120  integrated within and/or implemented in conjunction with furnishing units  110 . 
     In various embodiments of furnishing units  110 , this resistive heating element is formed by printing a heating-capable thick- or thin-film resistive material onto a substrate. In one example, a graphite- or graphene-based paste is printed onto a mica or like substrate. Other suitable thick- or thin-film materials having resistive heating capability are known such as those disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,037,572 which is incorporated herein by reference. In one implementation, the film of resistive material is printed as a grid of fine lines. The lines can be printed as parallel lines, as a single meandering maze-like line, as a generally square or generally circular pattern, or the like. The deposited film material can have uniform or variable thickness with line widths and line spacing also being uniform or variable. The resistive material can be of uniform composition throughout or different regions of the deposited film can have different composition; for example, to provide relatively low and high resistivity regions. In one implementation, differences in resistivity of different parts of a thick- or thin-film heating element are used to direct applied current as required to establish a particular heating pattern. For example, an outer zone of a heating area is heated to a higher temperature than an inner central zone. Such an arrangement is adapted for chair backs where the spine marks a position of higher pressure compared to other parts of the sitter&#39;s back. Similarly, for a chair seat where the buttocks have higher pressure areas than surrounding areas. In one implementation, local thermostats are used to switch in and switch out parts of the pattern as limit temperatures are reached. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , the material of the resistive heating element, whether a film or a discrete wire or filament, has a positive temperature coefficient and so experiences an increase in electrical resistance when its temperature is raised. Depending on desired heating characteristics, in an alternative embodiment, the material has a linear or negative temperature coefficient. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , an associated film of conducting material can also be printed as a grid of input and output conducting material lines to connect the resistive lines to input and output terminals. If the heating element is a meandering resistive element, whether embodied as a wire or deposited film, an input terminal is electrically connected to one end of the element and an output terminal is electrically connected to the other end of the element. In an implementation specifically for a pattern of separate resistive lines, a conducting strip is printed to be integral with input ends of resistive element lines and another conducting strip is printed to be integral with output ends of resistive element lines. In one implementation, the conducting layer is overprinted on the resistive layer and connections between respective resistive and conducting lines are made vertically. The input and output conductive strips are connected to input and output terminals of a standard or tailored power receptacle or, via an electrical lead, to a plug. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , printing of resistive and conductive leads can be by any of screen printing, ink drop printing, etc., tailored to the film material being used and the substrate to which the print material is being applied. For added integrity deposited conducting and resistive lines can be baked. The input and output terminals are in one implementation riveted to the adjacent rigid substrate. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , the heating element is mated to a surface part of an article of heating-capable furniture. In one implementation, the article is a piece of stock construction material such as wood, metal, ceramic, glass, fiberglass, carbon, MDF board, clay, Formica™, Corian™, Solid surface, laminates or the like for use in the manufacture of an article of heating-capable furniture. In an alternative implementation, the article is a surface part of the finished article itself, such as a piece of furniture, a vehicle, a boat, a floor, a pool or the like, with the resistive heating material and input and output conductors printed, coated or otherwise applied directly to the surface part itself and with a protective layer applied over the heating element. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , an intermediate layer of thermal transfer material is located on the heating ‘side’ between the heating element and an overlying substrate. The transfer material is made flowable during manufacturing to enable adaptation to low level surface formations or roughness in either or both of the heating element and the substrate. The transfer material has high thermal conductivity to minimize heat lost during transfer from the heating element to the substrate. As an alternatively to a flowable material, the transfer layer can be made pliable both to adapt to surface irregularities of a substrate and heating element and to adapt to the overall curvature of a substrate such as a chair part. In one implementation, the thermal transfer layer is itself deposited, as by vapor deposition or other suitable deposition method, or printed, as by screen printing, or other suitable printing method, directly onto the surface of the thick or thin film heating layer. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , an intermediate thermally insulating layer is located on the non-heating ‘side’ between the heating element and an underlying substrate. The insulating material acts a heat shield to minimize heat loss from the back or non-heating side of piece of furniture such as a chair and can be supplemented by a reflecting layer of material to reflect heat back the heating side. The heat shield also prevents generated heat from inadvertently and/or undesirably heating another person or item in the locality of furniture that is being deliberately heated. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , a robust resistive heating element is formed as a winding resistive heating wire or filament. In an implementation, the wire or filament is contained within a facing or housing material such as silicone rubber. The silicone rubber acts to protect the element from outside conditions; also, to provide flexibility allowing the heating element to be bent around an article to be heated; and particularly in the case of use of facing material, to act to concentrate the projection of generated heat towards the object being heated while acting as a shield to limit heat from being directed away from the object being heated. The housed heating element can, in one embodiment, be secured to an underlying body by anchors such as screw-mounted brackets. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , the heating element, as supplemented by any heat transfer layer and/or insulating layer has a thermoformed acrylic or Solid surface covering to render the structure resistant to deterioration from weather effects. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , dielectric material such as an epoxy is coated on a surface of a base material such as stock building material or an article of furniture. A resistive heating element such as any of a winding resistive wire, a lattice of resistive wires, or a printed lattice of resistive lines is then laid over or applied to the dielectric layer and a second layer of dielectric such as epoxy covers the resistive element. The stock material so produced is used to construct an item such as furniture, vehicles, boats, floors, pools, etc. As an alternative to a flowable epoxy, the heating element is sandwiched between layers of Corian™, Solid surface or like laminar material. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , a power receptacle is mounted at a suitable position on the item to be heated; for example, underneath a chair seat. An extension lead can be taken from the chair to a central power unit for servicing a group of heating-capable chairs or one of a group of chairs can have a central heating power source for heating the other chairs in the group. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , as an alternative to a mechanical plug and receptacle arrangement, a power transfer unit includes input and output members that are attached to each other through an easy-release mechanism. In one embodiment, the eliminate conventional male to female connectors by using a combination of friction and/or magnetism to hold one member to the other. The level of friction and/or magnetic attraction are set sufficiently high so as to avoid light collisions from disconnecting the power transfer members from one other, while supporting safety by enabling disconnection if tension within the lead exceeds a pre-set safety level. The power system can use standard 120 volts or may, through a step-down transformer mounted on the chair or at another near location, enable use of lower voltage, especially if warranted or mandated for safety and/or certification reasons. Engagement of the power transfer members, whether of standard or dedicated design, can be such that upon deliberate or accidental disengagement of members at the power transfer unit, an associated electrical lead is spring-returned to a storage position. This reduces the chance of accident or damage occurring in the event that a chair is inadvertently moved past the limit position set by the extension lead tethering. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , a sheet of substrate material bearing a heating element is embedded inside a cast material such as concrete. In one implementation, the embedded structure is first encased in an inert material to protect it from reaction with damaging chemicals used or produced in the course of the casting process. In another embodiment, heating elements are embedded in an injection molded material such as plastics. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , heating power to an article of furniture such as a chair offers the opportunity to implement electrically powered ancillary devices at or near the location of the article of furniture. In one implementation, a wireless charging station has a charging coil mounted on the article of furniture to be heated and shares the same supply, typically through a step-down transformer, as the heating element. The charging coil is, for example, suitably mounted or located under a chair seat, on or under the arm of a chair, near the lip of a table, etc., to permit charging of cell phones, laptop computers and similar devices. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , an item such as a chair is 3D printed. At an intermediate stage in the course of printing, heating element material is put in place on, or applied to, the partially printed item. The printing process is then continued so that the heating elements are embedded in the completed printed item. In one implementation, the heating element is deposited as a thick film resistive layer. In another implementation, wires, filaments, or rods of resistive material are placed on the surface of the partially printed object or are placed within containing housings forming part of the partial print. In a further implementation, both conductive and resistive elements are formed in the partial print so as to provide elements of a heating circuit. In a variation, the heating element itself is printed into the object during the printing process by switching from the flowable base material, such as a plastic, to a flowable resistive metal component, switching back to base material, etc., until the resistive metal heating element is completed. Conducting leads to the heating element are also printed ‘on the fly’. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , a heat storage medium such as a clay brick, or ceramic or feolite is lodged into stock manufacturing material, or into an article of furniture at a position adjacent a resistive heating element. In use, the heat storage medium is heated up during a heat storage cycle. At other times, even if there is no active heating of the heat storage medium, the previously heated medium releases its stored heat to warm a sitter or like user of the article of furniture. In one implementation, the heat storage medium is embedded in a 3D printed article of furniture during manufacture together with the associated heating element. In another implementation, the heat storage medium is added as part of the 3D material to be printed. In another implementation, the heating element comprises a mix of chemicals that exothermically react when electric current is passed through the mix, with the chemical returning to their initial state upon cooling when current flow ceases. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , a phase change material (PCM), such as an organic or salt hydrate PCM, is lodged into stock manufacturing material, or into an article of furniture at a position adjacent a resistive heating element. In use, the PCM is heated up during a heating cycle to precipitate a first direction phase change and then is allowed to cool to precipitate a reverse direction phase change. Controlled power is applied to the heating element in a cycle that releases latent heat from the PCM to warm a sitter in a warming period and absorbs latent heat in a cooling period either deliberately to cool a sitter or like user or to cool the article of furniture when no warming effect is required. In one implementation, the PCM is embedded in a 3D printed article of furniture during manufacture together with the associated heating element. In another implementation, the PCM is added as part of the 3D material to be printed. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , particularly in the case of 3D printing of a heating-capable article of furniture, in one implementation, optical fibers, optical sources and related control devices are embedded in the 3D printed object during manufacture. In use optical circuits and effects therefrom are used to indicate, for example, active heating level and/or current temperature. In one example, optical display technology is used in the structure of a heating-capable chair or like item so that it glows in response to the item changing temperature. In a related implementation, the item glows with a shade that depends on the actual temperature of the item or part of it. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , whether with or without heating capability, embedded optical fibers, optical sources and related control devices are used to provide lighting to an article of furniture for any of a number of possible purposes: to render the object visible in the dark for safety purposes; to present corporate logos; and to present a display which changes dynamically in response to music or other stimulus. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 . items with heating capability of the sort described previously are in communication with each other and with a controller so that, for example, heating-capable chairs, foot rests, table surfaces and under-the-table units communicate to establish and automatically adjust heat in a shared zone. In an embodiment of the invention, Wi-Fi control is used in conjunction with resistive heating elements and controller mounted at or incorporated in a heating-capable item to provide remote control and energy tracking of the item. In another embodiment, direct control is exercised through a local controller by a person located at and using the item. The control of resistive heating elements can be based on and/or can implement the control of a corresponding experience facilitation element in conjunction with facilitating one or more furnishing experience as described herein. The control data for resistive heating elements can be transmitted by client device  130  and/or furnishing experience system  100 . 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , the items of furniture include floor materials such as heating-capable patio stones. These may be individually heating-controlled using an accompanying or integrated smart interconnecting system. In one implementation, power moves from stone to stone making them an expandable system to suit any sized space and currently prevailing human foot traffic. Such stones, bricks or like externally deployed materials are, in one implementation, manufactured with a heating element mated to a reverse side or are manufactured with a phase change substance in an internal cavity, the phase change material providing heat when powered electrically. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , a communications link, such as network  150 , the internet, terminates at a heating-capable item of furniture with a remote information resource such as a web-based weather channel being periodically accessed over the link. In response, heating is turned on, or off, or adjusted, for example, to compensate for ambient or forecast temperature and wind chill. As an alternative to periodic operation, a weather link furnishes storm indications and the heating circuit is turned on, for example, for a period of time linked to an expected snowfall. A local communication link can use Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low Energy, Wi-Fi, LTE-M, NFC or a similar communications protocol. In one implementation, a heating-capable chair or like item has a controller to energize the heating circuit on a periodic basis for melting snow or ice, for example, implemented via furnishing processing system  120  of the chair. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , for a heating-capable item such as a chair connected to a communications link such as network  150  the internet, a QR or like code, and/or other visual identifier data  355  mounted on or embedded in the chair or other item, allows a user to buy heating time. Such a chair is, in one implementation, for example, located in a public place, where heating funds can go to local coffers much as parking fees do. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , the heating circuit of a heating-capable item such as a chair is battery operated. In one battery implementation, the item has a solar rechargeable battery connected to a solar panel mounted in, on or near the item for optical exposure to ambient charging light. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , through an internet or like communication link to a heating-capable chair or like item, the heating control circuit is connected to a restaurant, bar, establishment  140 , or other hospitality provider&#39;s point of sale (POS) system, which can be implemented via furnishing experience system  100  and/or can communicate with furnishing experience system  100 . A chair heating circuit can be activated when a customer sits down and de-activated when they leave, either triggered by the POS system when seating is assigned or by chair sensors detecting when a person sits in the chair or gets up. The system link is in one implementation used also to see what the customer purchased, how long they were at the table, and what temperature the chair is set to if there is local adjustment capability, for example, to populate furnishing experience history for the furnishing unit, for corresponding users, for a corresponding product, and/or for corresponding establishments as described herein. This enables data analytics to see which meals are most commonly eaten, how long people sit while eating a specific meal or drinking a specific drink, which table placement gets the most seating traffic, etc., for example, to generate some or all of learned characteristics data for users, products, furnishing units, and/or establishments as described herein. 
     In various embodiments of the furnishing unit  110 , parts of a heating-capable structure such as a chair are, through articulation or material flexibility, moved relative to one another and relative to the main body of the structure. In the case of a chair, such articulation or flexibility is between a body part of the chair and any of the chair seat, chair back, chair sides, chair arms, etc. Relative movement of chair parts is used to tailor heat transfer and distribution to people of different stature and physique. Tailored movement in another case permits the addition of more warmth to one part of a person&#39;s body—for example, a sitter&#39;s hands—that feel subjectively cold to the sitter. 
     Other variations and modifications will be apparent to those skilled in the art and the embodiments of the invention described and illustrated are not intended to be limiting. The principles of the invention contemplate many alternatives having advantages and properties evident in the exemplary embodiments. 
     It is noted that terminologies as may be used herein such as bit stream, stream, signal sequence, etc. (or their equivalents) have been used interchangeably to describe digital information whose content corresponds to any of a number of desired types (e.g., data, video, speech, text, graphics, audio, etc. any of which may generally be referred to as ‘data’). 
     As may be used herein, the terms “substantially” and “approximately” provides an industry-accepted tolerance for its corresponding term and/or relativity between items. For some industries, an industry-accepted tolerance is less than one percent and, for other industries, the industry-accepted tolerance is 10 percent or more. Other examples of industry-accepted tolerance range from less than one percent to fifty percent. Industry-accepted tolerances correspond to, but are not limited to, component values, integrated circuit process variations, temperature variations, rise and fall times, thermal noise, dimensions, signaling errors, dropped packets, temperatures, pressures, material compositions, and/or performance metrics. Within an industry, tolerance variances of accepted tolerances may be more or less than a percentage level (e.g., dimension tolerance of less than +/−1%). Some relativity between items may range from a difference of less than a percentage level to a few percent. Other relativity between items may range from a difference of a few percent to magnitude of differences. 
     As may also be used herein, the term(s) “configured to”, “operably coupled to”, “coupled to”, and/or “coupling” includes direct coupling between items and/or indirect coupling between items via an intervening item (e.g., an item includes, but is not limited to, a component, an element, a circuit, and/or a module) where, for an example of indirect coupling, the intervening item does not modify the information of a signal but may adjust its current level, voltage level, and/or power level. As may further be used herein, inferred coupling (i.e., where one element is coupled to another element by inference) includes direct and indirect coupling between two items in the same manner as “coupled to”. 
     As may even further be used herein, the term “configured to”, “operable to”, “coupled to”, or “operably coupled to” indicates that an item includes one or more of power connections, input(s), output(s), etc., to perform, when activated, one or more its corresponding functions and may further include inferred coupling to one or more other items. As may still further be used herein, the term “associated with”, includes direct and/or indirect coupling of separate items and/or one item being embedded within another item. 
     As may be used herein, the term “compares favorably”, indicates that a comparison between two or more items, signals, etc., indicates an advantageous relationship that would be evident to one skilled in the art in light of the present disclosure, and based, for example, on the nature of the signals/items that are being compared. As may be used herein, the term “compares unfavorably”, indicates that a comparison between two or more items, signals, etc., fails to provide such an advantageous relationship and/or that provides a disadvantageous relationship. Such an item/signal can correspond to one or more numeric values, one or more measurements, one or more counts and/or proportions, one or more types of data, and/or other information with attributes that can be compared to a threshold, to each other and/or to attributes of other information to determine whether a favorable or unfavorable comparison exists. Examples of such an advantageous relationship can include: one item/signal being greater than (or greater than or equal to) a threshold value, one item/signal being less than (or less than or equal to) a threshold value, one item/signal being greater than (or greater than or equal to) another item/signal, one item/signal being less than (or less than or equal to) another item/signal, one item/signal matching another item/signal, one item/signal substantially matching another item/signal within a predefined or industry accepted tolerance such as 1%, 5%, 10% or some other margin, etc. Furthermore, one skilled in the art will recognize that such a comparison between two items/signals can be performed in different ways. For example, when the advantageous relationship is that signal 1 has a greater magnitude than signal 2, a favorable comparison may be achieved when the magnitude of signal 1 is greater than that of signal 2 or when the magnitude of signal 2 is less than that of signal 1. Similarly, one skilled in the art will recognize that the comparison of the inverse or opposite of items/signals and/or other forms of mathematical or logical equivalence can likewise be used in an equivalent fashion. For example, the comparison to determine if a signal X&gt;5 is equivalent to determining if −X&lt;−5, and the comparison to determine if signal A matches signal B can likewise be performed by determining −A matches −B or not (A) matches not (B). As may be discussed herein, the determination that a particular relationship is present (either favorable or unfavorable) can be utilized to automatically trigger a particular action. Unless expressly stated to the contrary, the absence of that particular condition may be assumed to imply that the particular action will not automatically be triggered. In other examples, the determination that a particular relationship is present (either favorable or unfavorable) can be utilized as a basis or consideration to determine whether to perform one or more actions. Note that such a basis or consideration can be considered alone or in combination with one or more other bases or considerations to determine whether to perform the one or more actions. In one example where multiple bases or considerations are used to determine whether to perform one or more actions, the respective bases or considerations are given equal weight in such determination. In another example where multiple bases or considerations are used to determine whether to perform one or more actions, the respective bases or considerations are given unequal weight in such determination. 
     As may be used herein, one or more claims may include, in a specific form of this generic form, the phrase “at least one of a, b, and c” or of this generic form “at least one of a, b, or c”, with more or less elements than “a”, “b”, and “c”. In either phrasing, the phrases are to be interpreted identically. In particular, “at least one of a, b, and c” is equivalent to “at least one of a, b, or c” and shall mean a, b, and/or c. As an example, it means: “a” only, “b” only, “c” only, “a” and “b”, “a” and “c”, “b” and “c”, and/or “a”, “b”, and “c”. 
     As may also be used herein, the terms “processing module”, “processing circuit”, “processor”, “processing circuitry”, and/or “processing unit” may be a single processing device or a plurality of processing devices. Such a processing device may be a microprocessor, micro-controller, digital signal processor, microcomputer, central processing unit, field programmable gate array, programmable logic device, state machine, logic circuitry, analog circuitry, digital circuitry, and/or any device that manipulates signals (analog and/or digital) based on hard coding of the circuitry and/or operational instructions. The processing module, module, processing circuit, processing circuitry, and/or processing unit may be, or further include, memory and/or an integrated memory element, which may be a single memory device, a plurality of memory devices, and/or embedded circuitry of another processing module, module, processing circuit, processing circuitry, and/or processing unit. Such a memory device may be a read-only memory, random access memory, volatile memory, non-volatile memory, static memory, dynamic memory, flash memory, cache memory, and/or any device that stores digital information. Note that if the processing module, module, processing circuit, processing circuitry, and/or processing unit includes more than one processing device, the processing devices may be centrally located (e.g., directly coupled together via a wired and/or wireless bus structure) or may be distributedly located (e.g., cloud computing via indirect coupling via a local area network and/or a wide area network). Further note that if the processing module, module, processing circuit, processing circuitry and/or processing unit implements one or more of its functions via a state machine, analog circuitry, digital circuitry, and/or logic circuitry, the memory and/or memory element storing the corresponding operational instructions may be embedded within, or external to, the circuitry comprising the state machine, analog circuitry, digital circuitry, and/or logic circuitry. Still further note that, the memory element may store, and the processing module, module, processing circuit, processing circuitry and/or processing unit executes, hard coded and/or operational instructions corresponding to at least some of the steps and/or functions illustrated in one or more of the Figures. Such a memory device or memory element can be included in an article of manufacture. 
     One or more embodiments have been described above with the aid of method steps illustrating the performance of specified functions and relationships thereof. The boundaries and sequence of these functional building blocks and method steps have been arbitrarily defined herein for convenience of description. Alternate boundaries and sequences can be defined so long as the specified functions and relationships are appropriately performed. Any such alternate boundaries or sequences are thus within the scope and spirit of the claims. Further, the boundaries of these functional building blocks have been arbitrarily defined for convenience of description. Alternate boundaries could be defined as long as the certain significant functions are appropriately performed. Similarly, flow diagram blocks may also have been arbitrarily defined herein to illustrate certain significant functionality. 
     To the extent used, the flow diagram block boundaries and sequence could have been defined otherwise and still perform the certain significant functionality. Such alternate definitions of both functional building blocks and flow diagram blocks and sequences are thus within the scope and spirit of the claims. One of average skill in the art will also recognize that the functional building blocks, and other illustrative blocks, modules and components herein, can be implemented as illustrated or by discrete components, application specific integrated circuits, processors executing appropriate software and the like or any combination thereof. 
     In addition, a flow diagram may include a “start” and/or “continue” indication. The “start” and “continue” indications reflect that the steps presented can optionally be incorporated in or otherwise used in conjunction with one or more other routines. In addition, a flow diagram may include an “end” and/or “continue” indication. The “end” and/or “continue” indications reflect that the steps presented can end as described and shown or optionally be incorporated in or otherwise used in conjunction with one or more other routines. In this context, “start” indicates the beginning of the first step presented and may be preceded by other activities not specifically shown. Further, the “continue” indication reflects that the steps presented may be performed multiple times and/or may be succeeded by other activities not specifically shown. Further, while a flow diagram indicates a particular ordering of steps, other orderings are likewise possible provided that the principles of causality are maintained. 
     The one or more embodiments are used herein to illustrate one or more aspects, one or more features, one or more concepts, and/or one or more examples. A physical embodiment of an apparatus, an article of manufacture, a machine, and/or of a process may include one or more of the aspects, features, concepts, examples, etc. described with reference to one or more of the embodiments discussed herein. Further, from figure to figure, the embodiments may incorporate the same or similarly named functions, steps, modules, etc. that may use the same or different reference numbers and, as such, the functions, steps, modules, etc. may be the same or similar functions, steps, modules, etc. or different ones. 
     Unless specifically stated to the contra, signals to, from, and/or between elements in a figure of any of the figures presented herein may be analog or digital, continuous time or discrete time, and single-ended or differential. For instance, if a signal path is shown as a single-ended path, it also represents a differential signal path. Similarly, if a signal path is shown as a differential path, it also represents a single-ended signal path. While one or more particular architectures are described herein, other architectures can likewise be implemented that use one or more data buses not expressly shown, direct connectivity between elements, and/or indirect coupling between other elements as recognized by one of average skill in the art. 
     The term “module” is used in the description of one or more of the embodiments. A module implements one or more functions via a device such as a processor or other processing device or other hardware that may include or operate in association with a memory that stores operational instructions. A module may operate independently and/or in conjunction with software and/or firmware. As also used herein, a module may contain one or more sub-modules, each of which may be one or more modules. 
     As may further be used herein, a computer readable memory includes one or more memory elements. A memory element may be a separate memory device, multiple memory devices, or a set of memory locations within a memory device. Such a memory device may be a read-only memory, random access memory, volatile memory, non-volatile memory, static memory, dynamic memory, flash memory, cache memory, a quantum register or other quantum memory and/or any other device that stores data in a non-transitory manner. Furthermore, the memory device may be in a form of a solid-state memory, a hard drive memory or other disk storage, cloud memory, thumb drive, server memory, computing device memory, and/or other non-transitory medium for storing data. The storage of data includes temporary storage (i.e., data is lost when power is removed from the memory element) and/or persistent storage (i.e., data is retained when power is removed from the memory element). As used herein, a transitory medium shall mean one or more of: (a) a wired or wireless medium for the transportation of data as a signal from one computing device to another computing device for temporary storage or persistent storage; (b) a wired or wireless medium for the transportation of data as a signal within a computing device from one element of the computing device to another element of the computing device for temporary storage or persistent storage; (c) a wired or wireless medium for the transportation of data as a signal from one computing device to another computing device for processing the data by the other computing device; and (d) a wired or wireless medium for the transportation of data as a signal within a computing device from one element of the computing device to another element of the computing device for processing the data by the other element of the computing device. As may be used herein, a non-transitory computer readable memory is substantially equivalent to a computer readable memory. A non-transitory computer readable memory can also be referred to as a non-transitory computer readable storage medium. 
     One or more functions associated with the methods and/or processes described herein can be implemented via a processing module that operates via the non-human “artificial” intelligence (AI) of a machine. Examples of such AI include machines that operate via anomaly detection techniques, decision trees, association rules, expert systems and other knowledge-based systems, computer vision models, artificial neural networks, convolutional neural networks, support vector machines (SVMs), Bayesian networks, genetic algorithms, feature learning, sparse dictionary learning, preference learning, deep learning and other machine learning techniques that are trained using training data via unsupervised, semi-supervised, supervised and/or reinforcement learning, and/or other AI. The human mind is not equipped to perform such AI techniques, not only due to the complexity of these techniques, but also due to the fact that artificial intelligence, by its very definition—requires “artificial” intelligence—i.e. machine/non-human intelligence. 
     One or more functions associated with the methods and/or processes described herein can be implemented as a large-scale system that is operable to receive, transmit and/or process data on a large-scale. As used herein, a large-scale refers to a large number of data, such as one or more kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes or more of data that are received, transmitted and/or processed. Such receiving, transmitting and/or processing of data cannot practically be performed by the human mind on a large-scale within a reasonable period of time, such as within a second, a millisecond, microsecond, a real-time basis or other high speed required by the machines that generate the data, receive the data, convey the data, store the data and/or use the data. 
     One or more functions associated with the methods and/or processes described herein can require data to be manipulated in different ways within overlapping time spans. The human mind is not equipped to perform such different data manipulations independently, contemporaneously, in parallel, and/or on a coordinated basis within a reasonable period of time, such as within a second, a millisecond, microsecond, a real-time basis or other high speed required by the machines that generate the data, receive the data, convey the data, store the data and/or use the data. 
     One or more functions associated with the methods and/or processes described herein can be implemented in a system that is operable to electronically receive digital data via a wired or wireless communication network and/or to electronically transmit digital data via a wired or wireless communication network. Such receiving and transmitting cannot practically be performed by the human mind because the human mind is not equipped to electronically transmit or receive digital data, let alone to transmit and receive digital data via a wired or wireless communication network. 
     One or more functions associated with the methods and/or processes described herein can be implemented in a system that is operable to electronically store digital data in a memory device. Such storage cannot practically be performed by the human mind because the human mind is not equipped to electronically store digital data. 
     One or more functions associated with the methods and/or processes described herein may operate to cause an action by a processing module directly in response to a triggering event—
         without any intervening human interaction between the triggering event and the action. Any such actions may be identified as being performed “automatically”, “automatically based on” and/or “automatically in response to” such a triggering event. Furthermore, any such actions identified in such a fashion specifically preclude the operation of human activity with respect to these actions—   even if the triggering event itself may be causally connected to a human activity of some kind.       

     While particular combinations of various functions and features of the one or more embodiments have been expressly described herein, other combinations of these features and functions are likewise possible. The present disclosure is not limited by the particular examples disclosed herein and expressly incorporates these other combinations.
