A digital signage including a display panel configured to display content; a controller configured to: display first content in a first area of the display panel, obtain display panel control data for preventing an afterimage, based on received afterimage-related data, and move the display panel a predetermined amount and display the first content in a second area of the display panel based on the display panel control data.

A flexible display panel includes a first display area adjacent to a first end portion of the flexible display panel and a second display area adjacent to a second end portion of the flexible display panel. The flexible display panel is scanned from the first end portion of the flexible display panel to the second end portion of the flexible display panel in a first mode. In a second mode, the flexible display panel is concurrently scanned from the first end portion of the flexible display panel to a central portion of the flexible display panel and from the second end portion of the flexible display panel to the central portion of the flexible display panel.

Disclosed is an alert system to heighten visibility of a transport unit. The alert system includes a control box, a light emitting diode (LED) matrix operably connected to the control box, a plurality of LED strips operably connected to the control box, and a battery operably connected to the control box, the LED strips and the LED matrix. The control box includes a memory unit operably connected to a processing unit enabled to store display patterns and at least one LED button operably connected to at least one LED strip. The processing unit operably connected to at least one LED matrix button operably connected to the LED matrix to display at least one of the display patterns. The alert system is attached to a transport unit.

A shared terminal includes: circuitry to control a display to display an image to a plurality of users, the plurality of users sharing a use of the shared terminal, and obtain, from a first privately-owned terminal owned by a first user of the plurality of users, first terminal identification information for identifying the first privately-owned terminal; a transmitter to transmit, to a terminal management server, an authentication request for authenticating the first privately-owned terminal to allow login of the first user into the shared terminal, the authentication request including the first terminal identification information of the first privately-owned terminal; and a receiver to receive an authentication result indicating whether the first privately-owned terminal is authenticated to allow login of the first user, from the terminal management server. When the authentication result indicates that the first privately-owned terminal is a legitimate terminal and login of the first user is successful, the circuitry controls the display to display a screen for allowing the plurality of users including the first user to draw an image. When the authentication result indicates that the first privately-owned terminal is not a legitimate terminal and login of the first user fails, the circuitry controls the display to display a screen with an error message.

Methods, devices, and computer-program products are provided for adding data to a digital video signal in a visually imperceptible manner. For example, a region of pixels can be identified in a video frame, and one or more pixel characteristics of the region of pixels can be determined. Based on the one or more pixel characteristics of the region of pixels, at least one pixel characteristic of a subset of pixels from the region of pixels can be modified in order to encode a set of data into the region of pixels. An output frame can be provided that includes the modified at least one pixel characteristics for the subset of pixels.
