Lighted Display Sign Apparatus and Methods of Using the Same
Display sign apparatuses provide a visual indicator for drivers to quickly and easily find the location for a delivery, such as for the delivery of packages (such as, for example, from Amazon® or eBay®) and food or other like items, or for pick-up and drop off points for rideshare companies. Additional embodiments provide electronic features that allow a driver to quickly and easily determine a location, such as by using wireless communication protocols, such as, for example, RF tags, Bluetooth enabled communication modules, or other like electronic elements. Methods of using the same are further provided.
MODULAR SIGN BOARD WITH EMERGENCY WARNING SYSTEM
An address sign can consist of a rectangular enclosure with removable, illuminated alphanumeric characters attached to the front of the enclosure, an electronic control module positioned inside the enclosure, wherein the electronic control module includes a wireless communication unit configured to communicate with a series of electronic devices within a geographical area, and the electronic control module is configured to transmit signals to the illuminated alphanumeric characters.
LED sign system with redundant controller
The present invention relates generally to an LED sign system use on roadways, and more particularly to a LED sign system for use on roadways with a redundant controller.
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.
Outdoor advertisement structure on bus roof
An outdoor advertisement structure on a bus roof of the present invention can hide the untidiness of a heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system and the like mounted on the bus roof by a rectangular-shaped advertisement structure (10) since the advertisement structure (10) of which upper and lower parts are open and the four surrounding surfaces thereof are connected, is mounted on a bus roof (1) to cover an HVAC system (3) mounted on the bus roof (1) such that the HVAC system (3) is not exposed to the outside and to simultaneously provide a mounting area for traffic information notification and advertisements, wherein a front light guide panel (20) and a side light guide panel (22) for traffic information notification and advertisement are respectively mounted on a front part (12) and both side parts (14) of the advertisement structure (10), and thereby providing a balance between the bus and a cityscape by finishing the exterior appearance state of the bus roof (1) to be relatively aesthetically pleasing, increasing the advertising efficiency by minimizing advertisements hidden by nearby vehicles or road facilities, enabling the advertisements to be easily identified with the naked eye regardless of the time of day and focusing the attention of consumers at a new advertising height, and maximizing advertising effects by attaching large advertisements of advertising text, photographs and the like onto an upper plate material (30) covering the upper opening of the advertisement structure (10).

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.
