An illuminable image includes a substrate, a transparent light directing channel printed on the substrate, and an image printed over at least a portion of the printed transparent light directing channel.

[Object] Construct a system for freely changing images to be displayed or displaying images at appropriate timing [Solution] Control system for controlling the rotating displays. light emitting elements arranged in a line on a rotating plate. A server stores image data in a storage device and transmits the image data to the rotating displays. The storage device stores user data. user data includes a type of each rotating display held by the user. The user data includes a time schedule for displaying the image data. The server supplies to the terminal device an operation screen for user interface. User interface allows to select the image data and a time schedule for displaying the image data, or allows the user to create displayable image data. The server has a display controller that transmit to the rotating displays the image data, that selected or created by the user and transmit the data indicating the time schedule.

Described herein is a polymorphic display, which is a unitary apparatus constructed such that a wide variety of electro-optic functions are enabled. The polymorphic display is used in an intelligent container system for monitoring and evaluating actions taken at the container system. In this way, relationships between displayed information and actions may be determined. The polymorphic display, even when having multiple pixels, enables sharing of selected structures among the pixels. In a multi-pixel construction, there is a set of pixels in the display that exhibit one set of operable properties, such as particular stability, sequencing, and switching properties, and another set of pixels that are different from the first set. That is, they have different stability, sequencing, or switching properties. In such a way, a highly flexible polymorphic display may be construed to satisfy a wide range of display needs, including novel applications on intelligent container systems.

A self-contained illuminated sign for mounting on a vehicle is disclosed. The sign includes a front panel, a rear panel situated opposite and substantially parallel to the front panel in spaced relation therefrom to define a space therebetween, and a light source comprising a plurality of LEDs. The light source is positioned between the front and rear panels and is configured to emit light that emanates from the front panel. The front panel is thus backlit to display indicia. A system for supporting a self-contained illuminated sign on a vehicle is also disclosed. The system includes the sign and a separate mounting frame mountable on a vehicle. The mounting frame is configured to removably receive the sign and, when the sign is received in the mounting frame, to surround a perimeter of the sign while permitting visibility of the front display area. Related methods are also disclosed.

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.

Disclosed are embodiments of display modules, assemblies of display modules, and systems of display modules. Display modules have a plurality of light emitting elements arranged in a predetermined pattern and providing a highly uniform visual effect. Alignment and complementary alignment features enable the alignment of adjacent display modules and the creation of large displays from a plurality of aligned display modules. Features to grip and retain a support frame are provided. Modules and systems have features that permit installation and removal from the front side of the display. A system of modular support frames works cooperatively with the display modules, adapting to different mounting environments, and thereby providing large modular displays with desirable properties.

The present invention relates generally to the field of displaying devices for vehicles. More specifically, the present invention relates to an illuminated vehicle display device primarily comprised of a top cover, a circuit board, a bottom cover, and a housing with at least one solar panel. The device can be attached via at least one fastener to the interior surface of a vehicle window, wherein the circuit board has at least one LED that is powered by a solar panel which illuminates the top cover. In differing embodiments, the top cover may have a plurality of indicia such as, but not limited to: patterns, logos, emblems, images, symbols, designs, letters, numbers, words, characters, animals, advertisements, brands, etc. and may further be shaped like said indicia.

A first responder sign system including highly visible reflective address signs that enable property owners to provide critical information about the property to first responders. The information is contained in icons that signify on-site features and conditions that enable first responders them to make an informed plan for engaging in any operations that might be required in the event of an emergency. The system may involve enterprise administration of communications via a system website hosted on a system server and downloadable apps that enable subscribers to log provide and update information about their property status and to receive notices and to enable first responders to rapidly obtain information about a subscriber property during emergency operations.
