The present invention provides an improved collapsible display device. The improved collapsible display device has a housing member having a moveable member on the exterior of said housing and said moveable member is moveable between two positions, a collapsible screen capable of displaying an image when in an extended position, and multiple extendible members connected to said screen and rotatably connected to both said moveable member and said housing, and said moveable member moves said screen between the collapsed and extended operating positions as said moveable member moves between a first position and a second position.

A self-contained, portable and retractable apparatus is described that transforms a sufficient smaller space into a suitable place, either indoors or outdoors, where a large space is unavailable, into a practice facility for sporting activity skills. This backdrop apparatus allows practice of hitting or throwing of a ball or other object in a contained environment and may also be used for virtually playing at any famous location.

Improvements in the straightness in the vertical plane of a screen panel attached within a rectangular frame structure employing split tubes as its top and bottom edges/struts are described. Areas permitting the straightness of the screen panel to be improved include zip attachment of the screen panel to the split tubes, dependence of teeth orientation, reinforcement of the frame structure using struts, clamping of the split tubes to the frame, and modification of the screen panel, individually or in any combination thereof.

A system is provided. The system includes a translucent display positioned such that a first face is a display face and that a second face is a projection face and at least one projector configured to project an image on the second face of the translucent display. The image is displayed on the first face. The system also includes at least one sensor configured to transmit a signal when triggered and a projector controller in communication with the at least one projector and the at least one sensor. The projector controller is programmed to receive a signal from the at least one sensor and instruct the at least one projector to project at least one image on the translucent display in response to the signal from the at least one sensor.

A rollable display device is provided. The rollable display device may include a flexible display panel, a body including a main roller, around which the flexible display panel is wound, and a link drive unit for moving the flexible display panel, and two link assemblies for connecting the link drive unit and the flexible display panel to each other. Each of the link assemblies may include an upper link frame, a lower link frame, a center link connector, and an elastic plate. The upper link frame and the lower link frame may be coupled to the center link connector independently of each other. The elastic plate may allow the lower link frame to operate later than the upper link frame.

A projection image display includes: a screen unit that has a screen; a projection unit that projects an image onto the screen from a back surface of the screen; a housing that houses the projection unit; a slide mechanism that supports the screen unit such that the screen unit moves in an anterior-posterior direction; a locking mechanism that restricts a movement of the slide mechanism; and an adjustment mechanism that is capable of adjusting a position of the screen unit with respect to the housing from the outside while the locking mechanism restricts the movement of the slide mechanism.

An apparatus and methods for a modular entertainment pod are provided for preventing a transfer of airborne droplets and contagious aerosols within a large group of people. Multiple modular entertainment pods may be used to divide the large group of people into smaller groups. The modular entertainment pod provides audio and visual content to a small group of people. Screens supported around a perimeter of a supportive deck portion provide a surrounding display of visual content to the people within the pod. Speakers mounted above the screens provide a surrounding audio experience to the people within the pod. The multiple modular entertainment pods enable the small groups of people to socially distance themselves within the large group of people. The multiple modular entertainment pods may be synchronized to simultaneously present media content to all of the small groups of people.

A portable system is provided for engaging users during play by presenting one or more images provided by a mobile computing device. The system includes a projector configured to visually output the one or more images delivered by the computing device. The system also includes a mount for supporting the projector, and at least one lens that is coupled to the projector. The system further includes a housing having at least a first and second illuminable surface that can receive images projected by the projector. The surfaces can be moved between a collapsed condition and an operative condition.
