Publication number: 20230386418Abstract: A user interface display may have a display and may have a backlight that lights the display. The display may implement pixels to generate colors and images. The display may be backlit. The backlight may use pixels having emitters to generate different color backlighting. In various instances, the display or the backlight or both may include a deep blue emitter. The blue emitter may be used in combination with red and green pixels elements to generate different colors. By implementing deep blue emitters rather than conventional blue (e.g., cyan) emitters, the effects of cyan light on a viewer's circadian rhythm may be limited or eliminated. Moreover, by implementing deep blue emitters, the effects of cyan light on a viewer's circadian rhythm may be varied, while the colors and images are reproduced for viewing without introducing significant color distortion.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 27, 2022Publication date: November 30, 2023Applicant: B/E AEROSPACE, INC.Inventor: Eric Johannessen

Patent number: 11828497Abstract: A chilled liquid recirculation device (CLRD) is disclosed. In embodiments, the CLRD has a first air-cooling stage wherein a liquid cooling medium (LCM) is pumped through a first-stage radiator and forced-air chilled by axial fans driving ambient air through the radiator fins. The initially chilled LCM passes to a second thermoelectric-cooling stage wherein a second-stage liquid-cooled heatsink receives the LCM, the liquid-cooled heatsink in contact with the cold side of a thermoelectric module having a hot side in contact with a finned heatsink through which second-stage fans force ambient air, cooling the hot side and thereby further chilling the cold side and the LCM by contact. The twice-chilled LCM is then pumped to a remote chiller device to chill the hot side of another thermoelectric module, thereby chilling a recirculating air supply passing through a finned heatsink in contact with the cold side.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2020Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: B/E Aerospace, Inc.Inventor: Peter J.

Publication number: 20230375866Abstract: A system controller may provide a shared clock source to multiple illumination peripherals and multiple wearable vision obstruction devices having shutters. The multiple illumination peripherals may selectably turn on and off during different timeslots and the shutters of the multiple wearable vision obstruction devices may selectably occlude and un-occlude vision of users during the different time slots. By modulating the illumination peripherals and the shutters, different users may perceiver different sensory inputs in a shared environment. For instance, users may experience brighter or dimmer illumination, or may experience different types of illumination. One user may view a movie on an LCD screen while the LCD screen appears blank to another user. In this manner, a passenger cabin of an aircraft may provide individualized sensory experiences to different passengers sharing the aircraft cabin.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 18, 2022Publication date: November 23, 2023Applicant: B/E AEROSPACE, INC.Inventor: ERIC JOHANNESSEN
