  • Patent number: 7410138
    Abstract: An electronic display assembly for viewing by a person in a resting position includes a first arm rotatable about a swivel axis, a second arm coupled to the first arm that is pivotable about a pivot axis orthogonal to the swivel axis, and an electronic display coupled to the second arm. The display is adjustably positionable both about the swivel axis and about the pivot axis. The assembly further includes an apparatus for receiving a person in a resting position, with the electronic display being suspended above the apparatus. The electronic display is adjustably positionable about the swivel axis generally independent of its positioning about the pivot axis, and the electronic display is adjustably positionable about the pivot axis generally independent of its positioning about the swivel axis.
