A first cover part and a second cover part of a cover system adjoin one another in a first state and together form a closed surface with four corner regions. In a second state, the first edge of the first cover part is movable in a definable direction through a first definable angle about an axis which extends parallel to an imaginary straight line through the ends of the first edge of the first cover part, the first edge of the second cover part is movable in the definable direction through a second definable angle about an axis which extends parallel to an imaginary straight line through the ends of the first edge of the second cover part, and the first edge of the second cover part is movable in a definable direction by a definable distance. A housing can include the cover system.

Display device

A display device is provided and may include a light source that emits a light beam, a scanner that causes the light beam to scan, a movable screen in which an image is formed by transmitting the light beam from scanner, an optical system configured to project the image on a display medium, and a driver configured to cause the movable screen to reciprocate in moving directions. The image includes a first image and a second image. The movable screen reciprocates in a posture inclined with respect to the moving directions such that a second end of the movable screen is positioned closer to the scanner than a first end of the movable screen. The scanner forms the second image in the movable screen while the movable screen moves such that a forming direction of the second image is inclined with respect to a direction approaching the scanner.

Multi-position electronic smart sunshade

A deployable display for use in a vehicle is provided. The deployable display can be positioned in a plurality of stowed or a plurality of deployed positions, wherein the deployable display functions as a sun visor located in front of a windshield of the vehicle when it is in a first one of the plurality of deployed positions and when the deployable display is in a second one of the plurality of deployed positions or the first one of the plurality of deployed positions the deployable display functions as a screen that provides images from a controller operatively coupled to the deployable display.
