  • Patent number: 11798444
    Abstract: A system determines first content for presentation on a display within an environment when a speed of one or more vehicles within a field of view (FOV) of the display is less than a threshold speed and second content for presentation on the display when the speed of the one or more vehicles within the FOV is greater than the threshold speed. The second content is different than the first content. The system transmits at least one of the first content or the second content to the display.

  • Patent number: 10957227
    Abstract: A display system is configured to be mounted to a vehicle, the system including a display and one or more sensors. The display system may be configured to determine, based at least in part on data from the one or more sensors, a speed of a vehicle to which a sign is coupled. Based at least in part on the speed of the vehicle, the display system may position the sign in a first position based at least in part on the speed of the vehicle being less than a threshold speed, or a second position based at least in part on the speed of the vehicle being greater than or equal to the threshold speed.

  • Patent number: 10592916
    Abstract: A system configured to be mounted to a vehicle, the system including a display viewable over a predetermined range of distances and a motion sensor configured to detect speeds of one or more vehicles within the predetermined range of distances of the display. The system may receive, via the motion sensor, the speeds of the one or more vehicles and based at least in part on the speeds of the one or more vehicles relative to a threshold speed may display first image data or second image data.

  • Patent number: 10304360
    Abstract: A sign displays moving, still, or blank images. In one aspect the sign is mounted over a roadway for viewing by occupants of vehicular traffic and pedestrians. In another aspect the sign is mounted on a vehicle. An associated sensor senses the motion of traffic in the vicinity of the sign. When traffic moves at less than a predetermined speed, the sign displays moving or changing information. At greater speeds the display on the sign is either still or blank, so as to avoid distracting nearby drivers. An electronic system provides various aspects that augment sign operation such as GPS, reception of signage information for use in particular locations, advertiser billing information based on sign usage, and collection and reporting of demographics that aid advertisers in maximizing their impact.

  • Patent number: 9607510
    Abstract: A sign (100) displays moving, still, or blank images (130). In one aspect the sign is mounted over a roadways for viewing by occupants of vehicular traffic (105) and pedestrians. In another aspect the sign is mounted on a vehicle. An associated sensor (125, 220, 221, 222) senses the motion of traffic in the vicinity of the sign. When traffic moves at less than a predetermined speed, the sign displays moving or changing information. At greater speeds the display on the sign is either still or blank, so as to avoid distracting nearby drivers. An electronic system (135) provides various aspects that augment sign operation such as GPS, reception of signage information for use in particular locations, advertiser billing information based on sign usage, and collection and reporting of demographics that aid advertisers in maximizing their impact.

  • Publication number: 20160135593
    Abstract: A closet 100 fits into an attic. A raiseable panel (4275) forms the bottom of the closet. The raiseable panel can be lowered to the living space below manually or by using a return spring or electrical means. The raiseable panel holds a cabinet, box, or other storage item (105 or 2225). Air space (150) around the cabinet or items insulates it from thermal contact with the closet walls. Alternatively a cabinet is hung from a restraining member (145), or arm (1105), so it can be raised for storage and lowered for access. In this aspect, a bottom panel (110) is secured to the bottom of the cabinet. Optional vents (155) and fan (160) urge circulation between the air space and the living space, reducing temperature extremes in the air space and hence the cabinet. In other aspects, air treatment units (HVAC, dehumidifier, etc.) condition the air within the closet.

  • Patent number: 8820003
    Abstract: A closet can fit into an attic and a cabinet (105) can be retracted out of the closet to the living space below manually, or using a return spring or electrical means. An air space (150) around the cabinet insulates it from thermal contact with the walls. A panel (110) with vent openings (155) is affixed to the bottom of the cabinet. In an alternative embodiment the cabinet is hung from a restraining member (145), or arm (1105), by which it can be raised for storage and lowered for access. When raised, the panel is in contact with the ceiling (110) between the attic and air from the living space mixes into the air space by convection. A fan (160) can urge circulation between the air space and the living space, reducing of temperature extremes in the air space and hence the cabinet.
