Project Update
I was having so much fun playing with the Beaglebone Black and TI SensorTag that I almost forgot to write this update!
Anyway, got some sliders to mount the screen to and made a (rather bulky, but strong) frame to mount to the desk and hold everything in place. The next step will be to add the stepper motors and limit switches to automate the lift. My 3D printer is still acting up, so I'll probably end up making the piece manually. Don't worry, I have a plan ...
Here's a short video showing some assembly stages and testing the sliders manually.
