A picture frame and methods of setup, gifting, and/or use. Network connection allows digital frames to be set up remotely by a first user for a second user. The first user can upload photos from electronic devices or from photo collections of community members before the second user receives the frame device. The frame is thus ready for display upon powering on by the second user. An integrated camera is used to automatically determine an identity of a frame viewer and can capture gesture-based feedback. The displayed photos are automatically shown and/or changed according to the detected viewers. The photos can be filtered and cropped at the receiver side. Clustering photos by content is used to improve display and to respond to photo viewer desires.

A digital picture frame including a camera integrated with the frame, and a network connection module allowing the frame for direct contact and upload of photos from electronic devices or from a user's social media account or her or his community members' social media accounts. The integrated camera is used to automatically determine an identity of a frame viewer, and a viewer profile automatically determined from the identity of the viewer. The displayed photos are automatically shown and/or changed according to the detected viewers.

An image processing method and a display apparatus therefor are provided. The display apparatus includes a display, a communicator that communicates with an external device; a memory storing one or more instructions; and a controller including a processor for executing the one or more instructions stored in the memory. The processor is configured to execute the one or more instructions to receive an image from the external device, obtain information about a first distance corresponding to a distance between a front surface of the display apparatus and a wall, and, when the image is displayed on the display, apply a shadow effect to one or more of sides of the image based on the information about the first distance.

Disclosed is a display module including a transparent display panel and a frame to fix a side of the transparent display panel, wherein the frame has a communication unit to receive data from the outside, a controller to process the received data and to output a drive command corresponding to the processed data and a display drive unit to drive the transparent display panel in response to the drive command from the controller. A display system includes a system body and a display module detachably mounted in the system body.

A thin film video device is mounted onto a card stock and incorporated into a card, such as a greeting card. The thin film video device comprises a thin film video display coupled to a computer chip and a speaker. The thin film video device is powered by a local power source such as a small battery. The thin film video device is activated when the user unfolds the card, at which time an audiovisual message is displayed on the thin film video display and through the speaker.

The present invention provides devices for presenting entertainment by obtaining from a selected artist video and audio data regarding the artist's work and placing the data on a portable storage device for use in an entertainment device. After uploading the data into the entertainment frame's controller, the user selects one or more presentations by the artist to be played on the entertainment device. The entertainment device comprises a picture frame being mounted on a vertical surface with a display screen in the picture frame. The frame has a rechargeable battery for operating a controller that accepts an input device with a selected artist's video and audio data. The audio and video are played on the screen to provide entertainment from a singer or painter. Further, the entertainment device may be modular and removable from the picture frame so as to be transported easily to other locations, or the input device may be an flash album device.

There is provided a custom display for high resolution 4k and greater art, video, and digital displays in several different capacities and monitor configurations. This is controlled via an app that can reside on smart phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop computer. Dependent on the monitor configuration and content we can display this in over 4k quality for an unparalleled user experience.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a display device. The display device includes: a display panel; a control circuit board; and a rotary knob assembly connected to the control circuit board. The rotary knob assembly includes a rotary rod and a rotary knob cap, the rotary rod is connected to the rotary knob cap, and the rotary knob cap is configured to drive the rotary rod to rotate. The display panel is connected to the control circuit board, the rotary knob assembly is configured for generating a signal according to an action of the rotary knob cap and transmitting the signal to the control circuit board, and the control circuit board is configured for controlling the display panel to display according to the signal.

The present application discloses a display apparatus including a solution-on-chip (SOC) comprising a first input port receiving video data, a second input port configured to receive image data in a first resolution, and a central-processing unit comprising a frame-cut block integrated with an image processor to divide a frame of image data in the first resolution to 4 parts of the frame in a second resolution in a serial order. The display apparatus further includes a FPGA configured to write, read, and process respective one of the 4 parts of the frame in the serial order sent from the SOC to reconstruct a frame of image data in the first resolution. Furthermore, the display apparatus includes a TCON configured to receive the frame of the image data in the first resolution reconstructed by the FPGA and a display panel driven by the TCON to display the frame of image data.

The present disclosure provides an apparatus and method for controlling a display module, and a display device. The apparatus for controlling the display module includes a voltage sampling circuit and a data processing circuit. The voltage sampling circuit may acquire a data voltage and a common voltage and transmit the acquired data voltage and common voltage to the data processing circuit. The data processing circuit may determine, based on the data voltage and the common voltage, whether liquid crystal molecules are deflected abnormally, and control a main control circuit to restart if the liquid crystal molecules are deflected abnormally.
