THREE-DIMENSIONAL GRAPHICS MADE ON GRASS USING A CHLOROPHYLL-BASED AGENT
A system for creating three-dimensional grass graphics can include a means for cutting grass with an adjustable cutting height, a chlorophyll-based agent for coloring grass, and at least one stencil. The chlorophyll-based agent can be non-detrimental to a health of the grass and can be available in multiple shades. The stencil can be securable to the grass and can define a graphic to be painted on the grass using the chlorophyll-based agent. The means for cutting the grass can be able to pass over and around the stencil without damaging the stencil. Application of different shades of the chlorophyll-based agent to varying heights of grass can produce a three-dimensional effect for the graphic when viewed.
Robotically controlled, convertible staircase
A convertible panel includes a number of sub-panels which are movable between a first position in which the panels extend in the same plane to define a unified panel and a configuration in which one or more of the panels are moved into other planes which allow them to form steps. Multiple of the rotated panels may form a sequence of steps, e.g. a staircase. The convertible panel may be moved via a robotic mount, whereby the position or orientation of the convertible panel may be changed.
AIRPORT ADVERTISING SYSTEM
An airport airside advertising system 1 displays advertising to passengers of adjacent commercial aircraft. An advertising billboard 7 or 7A is disposed on the airside of an airport adjacent to a runway, taxiway or apron 2, 3, 4 and 12. The advertising billboard 7 or 7A is configured to face a direction substantially perpendicular to the direction of movement of an adjacent aircraft 11 during landing, take off, taxiing or temporary parking thereof, the billboard 7 or 7A dimensioned to display advertising visible to passengers in adjacent commercial aircraft 11. The advertising billboard 7 or 7A has one or more sensor elements 8 associated therewith and configured to provide an actuation signal in response to detection by one or more sensor elements 8 of an adjacent aircraft 11 within a predetermined range.
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A FUNCTIONAL ROAD OBJECT
A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for controlling a functional road object. For example, at least one processor receives road sign attribute data indicating at least one attribute of a road sign and receives weather forecast data indicating a weather forecast of a location in which the road sign is disposed. The road sign includes at least one machinery for mitigating exposure to one or more weather conditions. The at least one processor identifies a state of visibility for the road sign using the road sign attribute data and the weather forecast data and generates a control signal for controlling the at least one machinery using the state of visibility.
Aircraft projection device
An aircraft projection device includes a projector that displays an image by projecting the image onto a floor surface of a passage in an interior of an aircraft; and a controller that controls the projector to display the image onto the floor surface of the passage in the interior of the aircraft.
Mobile display
A mobile display cart for storing flooring panels that can be quickly removed and displayed on a floor. The mobile display includes a base supported on a frame with a set of wheels allowing the display to be wheeled to varying locations. The base includes a series of baffles with one or more flooring panels situated within a baffle wherein the panels remain substantially upright when held within the cart. In addition, a cord is connected to one end of the cart and strings through holes within each panel allowing one or more panels to be removed from the basket and displayed on the floor around the cart. However, the cord prevents the panels from being taken away from the display.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING A POSITION OF AN INDIVIDUAL RELATIVE TO AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATION USING CAMERAS
A device detects, using at least one camera, a human subject at a position within a first field of view relative to a first side of at least two sides of a device, the first side displaying first content on a first display of the first side. In response to detecting the human subject at the position within the first field of view, the device generates a first type of impression count for the human subject and tracks, using the camera, motion of the human subject. In accordance with a determination that the human subject moves from the position within the first field of view to a position within a second field of view relative to a second side of the at least two sides, the device updates the first type of impression count to a second type of impression count and stores the respective type of impression count.
Mat Stickers for Yoga and Pilates
The present invention is stickers for exercise mats, such as those commonly used in yoga or pilates. These mat stickers are available in a multitude of geometric shapes and adhere to the mats via an acrylic surface. A preferred thickness for the mat stickers is approximately 1.5 mm, which provides a sufficient grip for the practitioner, but is thin enough to roll into the mat at the conclusion of the exercise.
System and method for ground-based advertising
Methods for installing an advertising unit at an installation area of a surface are provided. The installation area is cleaned. One or more holes are formed in the installation area. The adhesive is applied at the installation area. The advertising unit is deposited at the installation area atop the adhesive. A fastener is passed through at least a portion of the advertising unit into each of the one or more holes. The adhesive is cured.
LAWN SIGN AND ATTACHMENT KIT FOR ATTACHING SIGN
A lawn sign attachment kit for attaching a sign to a sign frame. The kit includes a pair of adhesive connectors. Each adhesive connector includes a first end portion having a first width; a second end portion having a second width and an intermediate waist portion having a third width that is less than the first width and the second width. The adhesive connector has an inner face and an opposing outer face. The adhesive connector includes an integral finger that extends laterally outward from the second end portion. The adhesive connector having a first adhesive strip disposed transversely across the first end portion and a second adhesive strip disposed transversely across the second end portion and the integral finger.
