There are provided systems and methods for a physical stand for multiple device orientations and peripheral card reader. A device stand may include a dock that allows for placement and securing of a computing device within the device case, such as through a locking or connecting mechanism. The device dock further includes a peripheral component, such as a physical card reader, that allows for reading and entry of card data into the computing device for use with an electronic transaction processing application on the computing device. This allows the computing device to process transactions electronic with an online service provider. Further, the device stand includes a hinge or joint that allows for rotating and inverting of the computing device over a curved extension from a base of the device stand, which allows the computing device to be viewed in multiple directions and orientations.

A visual display stand is shown and described. The display stand comprises a thin aluminum member that slopes downward and away from a display to which it is attached to a horizontal base section that rests on a support surface. The horizontal base is spaced apart from the screen in a direction away from the rear of the display. A rear support member is also provided but is concealed from view when looking at the screen side of the display. As a result, when the stand is attached to display and viewed from the front, it gives a gravity defying appearance because it appears that the weight of the monitor should cause the stand to tip over. Alternatively, the second member may be removed, and the display may rest against a wall.

A display apparatus including a display and a supporter. The supporter being mounted on the display and configured to support the display and rotate the display module between a first position and a second position. The supporter including a drive motor, a first gear, and a detection sensor. The drive motor configured to supply a driving force to rotate the display. The first gear configured to rotate together with the display by receiving the driving force from the drive motor. The detection sensor configured to detect a rotation amount of a second gear configured to rotate in with the first gear.

The present invention is applicable to the technical field of aerial photography. Disclosed are a panoramic photographing apparatus, a panoramic photographing system, a photographing method, and an aircraft. The photographing apparatus comprises a support connected to an aircraft body and a photographing module mounted on the support. The photographing module comprises a first photographing module and a second photographing module arranged in a first direction and a second direction. The first direction is opposite to the second direction. A line of sight corresponding to a maximum angle of view of the first photographing module intersects a line of sight corresponding to a maximum angle of view of the second photographing module. The photographing method uses the photographing apparatus. The aircraft comprises the photographing apparatus. The panoramic photographing system comprises the remote terminal and the photographing apparatus/aircraft. In the panoramic photographing apparatus, the panoramic photographing system, the photographing method, and the aircraft provided by the present invention, the aircraft body and the photographing apparatus are completely hidden during capturing of a panoramic photo or a panoramic video, thereby ensuring a good panoramic photographing effect, and facilitating subsequent image processing.

A wall-mounted jukebox system for mounting adjacent to a wall-mounted external video display includes a jukebox having a controller configured to play digital music and/or digital video files, a communication module connected to the controller and configured for wireless and/or wired communication with one or more external devices, a video output port connected to the controller and configured to enable the jukebox to be connected to the wall-mounted external video display, and a cabinet housing the controller, communication module, and video output port. A mounting bracket is configured to receive the jukebox and to be affixed to the wall adjacent to the wall-mounted external video display. The jukebox lacks a physical user interface, a video display screen, and a physical payment acceptor, and selection of the digital music and/or digital video file for play by the controller and payment are received through the communication module from an external device.

A nanoscale positioning system for positioning a positionable component includes a motion platform including a first end, a second end, a shuttle positioned between the first end and the second end and configured to support the positionable component, a flexure member, and a fluid passage extending through the flexure member from the first end to the second end of the motion platform, and a pressure controller coupled to the motion platform and fluidically connected to the fluid passage, wherein the pressure controller is configured to selectably provide a fluid pressure in the fluid passage to flex the flexure member whereby the shuttle is displaced along a motion axis of the motion platform.

A flange for use on a reel, a flange adapter, and a flange stand are provided. The flange may include an outer circumference, a hub assembly, and an arbor hole adapter that is adapted to engage an arbor hole to secure the flange to the reel. The arbor hole adapter may include an expandable portion that is movable between an extended position and a retracted position. First and second expansion plates may be coupled to the arbor hole adapter and connected by shoulder bolts that guide movement of the plates between an abutting configuration and a spaced-apart configuration, allowing movement of the expandable portion relative to the reel for modified engagement. The flange stand may include a base, a support portion, and a coupler for engaging a central extension of the flange to allow the flange to be supported in an upright position.
