An interactive multimedia device designed to display an image on a flat surface below the device, e.g., on the floor. The interactive multimedia device has a housing (10) which comprises a projector (11), at least one loudspeaker (12), a camera (13), an IR illuminator (15), a power supply module, and a control unit (16), wherein the housing (10) has vents (6) of housing (10), wherein the vents (6) of housing (10) have the same size and shape as those of the vents (17) of projector (11), wherein the vents (6) of housing (10) are oriented in the same way as the vents (17) of projector (11) and the vents (6) of housing (10) are located above the vents (17) of the projector (11).

A vehicle-based mobile content delivery system comprises a projector configured to receive and project visual content, a projection surface for receiving and displaying the projected visual content, and a projector mounting system for securely mounting the projector and integrating the projector into a vehicle. The projector mounting system comprises a headrest projector mount compatible with an original headrest of the vehicle for enclosing and supporting the projector, a headrest coupling mechanism for coupling the projector to the headrest projector mount for support, and mounting channels that accommodate a range of headrest mounting rails of vehicles for connecting the projector mounting system to the vehicle.

An electronic device may have input-output devices such as sensors, displays, wireless circuitry, and other electronic components mounted within a housing. The housing may have opposing front and rear walls. A display may be formed on a front side of the device and may be overlapped by a front housing wall such as a glass layer. Sensors and other components may be formed on a rear side of the device and may be overlapped by a rear housing wall. The rear housing wall may have a glass portion or other transparent structure through which projectors project images onto nearby surfaces and through which image sensors and other optical sensors receive light. The housing may be supported by a stand. An electrical component in the stand may interact with an electronic device on the stand. Wireless circuitry in an external item may wirelessly couple to wireless circuitry within the housing.

An object of the present invention is to provide a projection apparatus capable of appropriately performing control relating to rotation of a projection lens. A projection apparatus according to a first aspect of the present invention includes a housing; a power supply; a control unit; and a projection lens attached to the housing, the projection lens having a holder, a detection unit that detects a rotation state of the holder, and a locking mechanism unit that brings rotation of the holder into a locked state or an unlocked state. The locking mechanism unit does not bring rotation of the holder into the locked state when a rotation state of the holder is other than a specific state. The specific state is a rotation state in which the locking mechanism unit is capable of bringing rotation of the holder into the locked state. When rotation of the holder is not brought into the locked state, the control unit disables an operation relating to the locked state or an operation of turning off the power supply.

A device configured to capture a first image and to project a second image, the device comprising a support; a camera configured to capture, or a first mirror configured to capture and reflect towards a camera, a first image of a work area, the camera or the first mirror being mounted on the support; and a projector configured to project, or a second mirror configured to reflect and project, a second image on the work area, the projector or the second mirror being mounted on the support.

A method for displaying a modified phase mask on a spatial light modulator (SLM), including: modifying, by a processor, a phase mask by combining the phase mask with a virtual lens pattern, the virtual lens pattern having a focal length; displaying, by the SLM in communication with the processor, the modified phase mask on the SLM; and projecting, by a light source in communication with the processor, the light source through the SLM to form an intensity pattern at a distance from the SLM corresponding to the focal length of the virtual lens pattern, the intensity pattern being based on the phase mask.

According to one embodiment, a display device including a first substrate including an organic film, a first recess and a second recess formed in the organic film, and a first projection having the organic film, a second substrate, and a sealing member located in a second area around a first area, and bonding the first substrate and the second substrate together, wherein the first substrate includes a mounting portion, the first recess and the second recess extend in the second area, a first leading end portion of the first recess is separated from a second leading end portion of the second recess, and the first projection, the first recess and the second recess overlap the sealing member.

A system and method for projecting a still shot or video projection into a body of water is described herein.

A mother substrate for a display panel includes a first substrate including a panel area and a peripheral area surrounding at least one side of the panel area, a second substrate disposed on a first surface of the first substrate, a first support member disposed on a second surface of the first substrate opposite to the first surface of the first substrate in a first direction, the first support member overlapping the panel area of the first substrate in a plan view, and a second support member disposed on the second surface of the first substrate, the second support member overlapping the peripheral area of the first substrate in a plan view.

A display device (30) comprises a reflective display (38) arranged to render a first image viewable through a viewing surface and a projection means (31-37) arranged to render a second image viewable in reflection on the viewing surface, the reflective display (38) and the projection means (31-37) being mounted on a common frame.
