Publication number: 20210255530Abstract: A wall controller is provided. The wall controller includes a projection screen having an input device and a projector arranged to project a digital image onto the projection screen from the projector, wherein the projector has an optical axis that is non-orthogonal to the projection screen. The wall controller includes a housing having the projection screen mounted thereto at a first end of the housing, the housing having the projector at a second end of the housing. The housing is dimensioned to fit the second end of the housing through an aperture in a first wall, fit the second end into a wall space between the first wall and a second wall, and fit a majority of the first end of the housing into the aperture until the projection screen is parallel to a surface of the first wall and a front portion of the projection screen is flush with, recessed in or extends from the surface of the first wall. The aperture dimensioned to fit the first end of the housing or the front portion of the projection screen.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2021Publication date: August 19, 2021Inventors: Antoine Dubois, John Bogdan, Paul Nagel, Craig Henricksen, Stephen Coffin, Wally Barnum

Patent number: 6434660Abstract: A flash memory controller translates between manufacturer-specific protocols to allow the flash memories of one manufacturer to be used transparently in a host system programmed for the memory devices of different manufacturer. According to the invention, the controller indicates the manufacturer's ID code the host system requires irrespective of the flash memories used. The scheme employed permits translation even when there is no one-to-one correspondence between the parts of the different protocols being used.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2000Date of Patent: August 13, 2002Assignee: Centennial Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Grady Lambert, Craig Henricksen, Jonathan Minko
