DIY lie down computer workstation

furnitureself-assembly-furniture

I am suffering from lower back pain and looking to build a lie down workstation.

What I have came up is this:

  1. Adjustable bed for a little recline to stay comfortable for long working hours. Bed will be placed besides wall in parallel.

  2. Monitor pulldown and pull up arrangement right on top of bed at the eye level. With Horizontal and vertical tilt.

  3. Slim keyboard and mouse tray fitted to the wall on one side, and totally adjustable on top of bed at tummy level.

I want something exactly like this but want to lower the anchoring costs:

I don't have much idea about what material and ready made items to use to accomplish this.

Looking forward for completing this project asap. Any tips greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not exactly sure what you're looking for, but you could just buy something like this Computer Monitor Wall Mount and attach it to the wall:

It's adjustable in a few different ways:

Or there are ones more like a table, for a laptop, like this Track Mounted Laptop Arm with Foldable Tray:

I've seen similar types that were more heavy-duty, for the older heavier CRT monitors, and if you can still find an old one like that it might be extremely cheap now.

Or if you've got a table or desk by the bed, maybe something like this NB FC35 190cm computer sit-stand work station desk mount laptop table stand monitor bracket shelf with keyboard plate:

Or maybe just an adjustable bedside table, like this one Medical Adjustable Overbed Bedside Table with Wheels, Tilt Table for Hospital and Home Use and put a laptop or keyboard & monitor on top, and move it right out of the way when not needed:
