SIGNAGE SYSTEM
A signage system (10) including one or more visual display devices (11), each mounted for display behind the windshield (15) of one or more parked and ignition-off vehicles (16). Each sign (11) has a visual display surface (12) that is capable of forming an illuminated graphic display (13) on the visual display surface (12). The visual display surface (12) would be visible to observers in front of the vehicle (16). The system (10) includes wireless communication hardware (60) that allows the visual display (11) to be programmed by a remote programming device (41). Each of the display devices (11) can be programmed to have a separate message and each message would scroll from left to right across the display surface (12) in a time coordinated manner so that the message appears to scroll consistently from left to right across the visual field of the plurality of display surfaces (12).
Material Removal from Inner Surface to Preserve Perception of Outer Surface Aesthetics
A veneer for a wall-mounted keypad may include indicia that are laser cut therethrough and that are representative of functions that may be performed by the keypad. The veneer may include a recess that extends into an inner surface of the veneer, proximate to the indicia. The recess may be shaped such that a perceived aesthetic of an outer surface of the veneer is preserved during formation of the indicia. The recess may for example have an organic shape defined by a curved outer perimeter that does not define any corners.

ILLUMINATION FEATURE FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICES
The present disclosure provides an illumination feature for an electronic device. A light cone is used to direct light from a light emitter to an interior surface of a housing of an electronic device in one of a variety of geometric, alphabetic, or numerical designs.
APPARATUS AND METHODOLOGY FOR CUSTOMIZING VEHICLE SIGNAGE
Aspects are disclosed that facilitate customizing vehicle signage. In a particular aspect, a signage is disclosed which includes a mica cover positioned within the perimeter of a frame. The signage further includes a light source configured to direct light towards a backside of the mica cover, and a logo component positioned on the backside of the mica cover. In a particular aspect, the light source is configured to illuminate a logo by transmitting light through the logo component so that the illuminated logo is viewable from the frontside of the mica cover. An attachment mechanism is also included, which is configured to attach the signage to a vehicle.
RFID/NFC panel and/or array used in smart signage applications and method of using
The present invention relates to an interactive advertising system and method of using the system. A plurality of removable RFID devices are disposed on a panel which is separate from an advertising graphic that is supported in an illuminated frame. Activation of one of the RFID devices illuminates a portion of the advertising graphic.
STARRY SKY REPRODUCING DEVICE
A starry sky reproducing device contains: a ceiling section an inner surface of which has a semi-spherical surface on which a starry sky can be projected; a wall section which has a nearly vertical wall surface contiguous to a lower end section of the semi-spherical surface of the ceiling section; a floor section on which the wall section is installed; starry sky projection means for projecting a starry sky on the semi-spherical surface of the ceiling section, the starry sky projection means being installed near a center of the floor section and near a center of the semi-spherical surface of the ceiling section; a plurality of seats which are installed on the floor section; one or more partial starry sky reproducing means for reproducing details of a part of a starry sky, the partial starry sky reproducing means being installed between the seats and the wall surface, preferably at positions in a proximity of the wall surface; and one or more telescopes through which a detailed image of a part of a starry sky which the partial starry sky reproducing means reproduces can be observed, the telescopes being installed at positions between the seats and the wall surface opposing the partial starry sky reproducing means across the starry sky projection means.
Configurable display apparatus and methods
Display module mounting apparatus and methods provide mounting features enabling ease of installation and service. The apparatus may have one or more releasable frame couplers and pivoting releasable frame couplers coupled to a display module having a display plane defined in relation to a substrate. One or more adjustable linkages may adjustably define a standoff distance between the display plane and a support frame to which the module may be mounted by the mounting apparatus. Concave and convex adjustments to the display plane may be made. Operation of pivoting action to tilt the display plane enables installation, removal, and serviceability of large displays constructed with a tiled plurality of display modules.
