Briefly stated, an example of a visual-display screen lift comprises a base and a lower support member attached to the base. An upper support member has an upper end portion and a lower portion telescopically engaged with the lower support member. A visual-display-screen support member is pivotably connected to the upper end portion of the upper support member for pivotably supporting a visual display screen thereon. The visual-display-screen support member has a home position aligning the visual-display-screen support member at a selected angular orientation with respect to the upper support member. A drive mechanism is operatively connected to the upper support member for raising and lowering the upper support member. A sensor is configured to detect an angular position of the visual-display-screen support member. The sensor is operatively connected to the drive mechanism such that operation of the drive mechanism depends upon the angular position of the visual-display-screen support member.
