Robotically controlled display
A robotic mount is configured to move an entertainment element such as a video display, a video projector, a video projector screen or a camera. The robotic mount is moveable in multiple degrees of freedom, whereby the associated entertainment element is moveable in three-dimensional space. In one embodiment, a system of entertainment elements are made to move and operate in synchronicity with each other, such as to move a single camera via multiple robotic mounts to one or more positions or along one or more paths.
ILLUMINATION DEVICE
An illumination device configured to emit illumination light has a light source arranged inside a housing generating the illumination light; a diffusing panel attached to the housing; and a projector arranged inside a space formed by the housing and a part of the diffusing panel for projecting an image onto a projection surface. An optical unit is arranged so that an incident direction of a light flux incident from a display element provided in the projector onto a projection optical system of the projector is substantially vertical or in a direction closer to a vertical direction than a direction parallel to a horizontal plane, or so that an optical axis of the projection optical system on which the light flux from the display element provided in the projector is incident is substantially vertical or in a direction closer to the vertical direction than the direction parallel to the horizontal plane.
System and method of actively reducing an appearance of a seam in a mirror array
Systems and methods to reduce the appearance of a seam in an image reflected onto a mirror array from a screen is provided. The systems and methods may include a light source to emit light into a seam between a pair of mirrors of the mirror array; a camera for taking a picture of the image displayed on the screen and yielding image data from the picture; and a control system in communication with the light source and the camera. The control system may be operable to cause the light source to emit light of a first color into a first portion of the seam and to emit light of a second color into a second portion of the seam based on the image data, thereby providing colored light in the seam to substantially match colors in the image reflected onto pair of mirrors adjacent to the seam.

FULLDOME DISPLAY FRAMEWORK WITH MOVABLE ASSEMBLY
A fulldome display framework with a movable assembly adapted to dispose a plurality of display screens or projection screens to constitute a fulldome display includes a fixed frame engaged with a base surface and a movable frame disposed on the base surface and being movable relative to the fixed frame between an assembling position and a disassembling position along a predetermined route. The fulldome display is constituted when the movable frame is located at the assembling position to match with the fixed frame. In this way, after an LED fulldome display structure is installed on the present invention for example, the movable frame could be pulled out relative to the fixed frame along the predetermined route when a circuit board of a part of the fulldome display requires to be repaired, providing a certain working area for a repair worker to carry out repair and maintenance.
INTERACTIVE REAR PROJECTION SYSTEM
An interactive rear projection system including a projection screen, a projection optical engine, an input device and a controller is provided. The projection optical engine emits a projection beam which is projected on the projection screen. The input device includes a sensor and a first light source both disposed on a first side of the projection screen. The controller is electrically connected to the projection optical engine, the sensor, and the first light source and controls the first light source to project a first beam toward the projection screen. When an object approaches a second side of the projection screen, the sensor senses a light spot generated by the first beam diffusely reflected by the object and recognizes a position of the object or a position where the object touches the projection screen according to the light spot.

Curvature Adjustment Device of Curved Display Screen, Curvature Adjustment Method for Curved Display Screen, and Curved Display Device
A curvature adjustment device of a curved display screen, a curvature adjustment method for a curved display screen and a curved display device. A curvature adjustment device for a curved surface display screen includes: a supporting back plate, which is a supporting plate having a fixed curvature; an elastic back plate, which is connected to the supporting back plate and capable of being elastically deformed to change a curvature; and an adjusting device, configured to adjust the curvature of the elastic back plate. The adjustment device is used to change the curvature of the elastic back plate, such that the display screen can be curved into different arc shapes, improving the applicability of the curvature adjustment device of the curved display screen.
PROJECTION SYSTEM AND LIGHT SCREEN GENERATING DEVICE THEREOF
The present disclosure provides a projection system and a light screen generating device thereof. The light screen generating device includes a movable carrier module, a first light-emitting module, and a second light-emitting module. The first light-emitting module includes a plurality of first light-emitting structures disposed on the movable carrier module. Each of the first light-emitting structures generates an invisible light screen, and the invisible light screens respectively generated by the first light-emitting structures are mated with each other to form a spliced invisible light screen for increasing light emission uniformity. The second light-emitting module includes a second light-emitting structure that is disposed on the movable carrier module and that generates a visible light screen parallel to and overlapping the spliced invisible light screen.
