Systems and method for a vehicular-based transforming LED (VBTLED) volume. As an example, the system includes a transforming trailer, mountable to a vehicle. The trailer has one or more fixed interior surfaces and a one or more movable interior surfaces, a floor, and a ceiling. The trailer also includes a first LED panel coupled to a first movable surface such that movement of first movable surface moves the first LED panel; a second LED panel coupled to a first fixed surface; and a third LED panel coupled to at least one of a second movable surface or a second fixed surface. The first LED panel, the second LED panel, and the third LED panel form an LED volume configured to display visuals for a background of a scene filmed within the LED volume.

The present invention relates to storage and display device comprising a base wall and a side wall that are connected together and operable to move between a folded and an expanded configuration, the expanded configuration defining an interior region for the storage of product between the side wall and the base wall, and the side wall and the base wall are arranged to provide a top opening and a side opening to the interior region. The device comprises at least one locking arm arrangement comprising a pair of connected locking arms each having a side wall engaging locking surface and together operable to move between a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration in the expanded configuration of the device. The locking arm arrangement strengthens and provides considerable stability and rigidity to the device in the expanded configuration by preventing sideways movement or wobble of the side wall when of the device in the expanded configuration. The present invention provides a re-usable storage and display device for the transport and display of product, such as in a retail environment.

An embodiment vehicle door opening structure includes a first door unit positioned at a side of a vehicle and including a first door, a second door unit including a second door positioned adjacent to the first door, a locking device configured to selectively lock the first door unit and the second door unit together, and a controller configured to fix the locking device so that the first door unit and the second door unit are configured to be opened together or to release the locking device so that the first door unit and the second door unit are configured to be opened independently.

An electronic display device includes: a chassis including a plurality of mounting elements and a controller, and a media player; and a display panel comprising at least one display module mounted to the mounting elements, wherein each display module includes a video display on a front surface of the display module and is positioned relative to the chassis using one or more locating pins located on a back surface of the display module that cooperate with one or more receiving holes in a front surface of the mounting elements and is secured to the chassis; wherein the controller causes the media player to display media content on the display panel.

A transportable display is transportable using a tow vehicle and includes a display portion movable between a transport configuration and a display configuration, and a trailer frame attachable to a tow vehicle and arranged to support the display portion. A first wheel assembly is attached to the frame and is operable to at least partially support the trailer during transport and a second wheel assembly is attached to the frame and is operable to at least partially support the trailer during transport, the first wheel assembly and the second wheel assembly movable between a transport position and a display position. A plurality of legs is coupled to the frame. The legs are movable between a stowed position and a support position, wherein the plurality of legs supports the trailer frame when the first wheel assembly and the second wheel assembly are in the display position.

An electronic display device includes: a chassis including a plurality of mounting elements and an antenna, a power supply, a controller, a media player, a gateway, and a terminal; and a display panel comprising a plurality of display modules mounted to the mounting elements, wherein each display module includes a video display on a front surface of the display module and is positioned relative to the chassis using one or more locating pins located on a back surface of the display module that cooperate with one or more receiving holes in a front surface of the mounting elements, is magnetically secured to the chassis, and is locked in place relative to each respective mounting element using a locking mechanism, such that each individual display module may be secured or removed from the chassis independently; wherein the controller causes the media player to display media content on the display panel.

The present invention relates to an unmanned (100) and configurable as a standalone energy module mobile vehicle, which comprises: one chassis (1)a body (27) mounted on the chassis (1)a drive system (4) comprising a motor (51), the drive system (4) configured to receive commands from a user-operated controller, the vehicle (100) comprising at least a rechargeable battery module (80) configured to feed the motor (51) and provide a source of electrical energy.
