Abstract: A sink system is provided. The sink system is configured for coupling within a recessed cabinet space. The sink system includes a cabinet module and a sink module coupled to an upper end of the cabinet module. The sink module includes a sink basin and a faucet. The sink system further includes a water delivery system configured to receive a flow of water from a utility line and selectively provide the flow of water to the sink module based on a control signal received from a controller. The controller may be a wired or wireless puck that is positioned near the sink basin. The water delivery system may further include a water filtration system, and the digital control valve may provide the flow of water to the water filtration system before the flow of water is provided to the sink module.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present disclosure is directed to a bathroom mirror lighting system comprising a mirror, a light source, a sensor, and a control circuit operably coupled to the light source and the sensor. The control circuit receives a sensor signal from the sensor indicative of at least one of a user's distance from the sensor, a user's position, a user's posture, a motion of the user towards or away from the sensor, or a task being performed by the user. The control circuit then transmits a control signal to the light source causing the light source to alter its light output based on the sensor signal from the sensor.
