This invention relates to a monopod device for use with a phone, tablet, camera, and other recording devices that is supported by the monopod and is inserted into the ground to provide hands-free photographing, video recording, and streaming of music and video. The monopod device includes a magnetic mounting system for electronic devices, silicone covered threaded magnet, ferrous metal plate with adhesive, rotational adjustment mechanism, and non-collapsible support hollow shaft. The hollow shaft with a pointed plug is constructed to be inserted into the ground to provide stable hands-free filming and use of the electronic device. The rotational adjustment mechanism having a swivel secures the threaded magnet allows different filming and viewing angles. The threaded magnet provides powerful pulling power that allows coupling of small electronic devices. This invention has a cradle free design providing safe and easy one-handed device use. The invention provides a solution to filming sports motion.

A device for supporting an electronic display includes a support surface, a display mount configured to be coupled to a display, and a connection mechanism to connect the display mount to the support surface. The connection mechanism is configured to enable a rotation of the display mount between a first position and a second position. The device also includes a set of springs to provide a spring torque that counterbalances a gravitational torque exerted by the display. The connection mechanism causes a translation of the center point of the display relative to the support surface in concert with the rotation. The connection mechanism also causes the center of rotation of the display to shift during the rotation.

An example modular artist studio easel system includes a first mast member pivotally attached to first base member, and a second mast member pivotally attached to a second base member. Support arms are attached between the base members and the mast members. Cross members are slidably connected between the first mast member and the second mast member to adjust a width between the first mast member and the second mast member. A first back support is mounted to the first mast member, and a second back support is mounted to the second mast member, for supporting at least one canvas thereon. A first upper edge support and a first lower edge are mounted on the second back support. A second upper edge support and a second lower edge are mounted on the second back support.
