  • Patent number: 10122963
    Abstract: A bidirectional transceiver includes a media transmitter, a media receiver, a network transmitter, and a network receiver. Each of these components includes an interface to a respective differential wire pair of a cable. By coupling a pair of such transceivers, a media stream and network connectivity can be sent over the cable in either or both directions. Using an opportunistic scheduling method, each media stream can contain audio, video, and control information in uncompressed form. Power can be transferred over the cable so that a media device containing one transceiver can be powered by a media device containing the other transceiver.

  • Patent number: 9803795
    Abstract: A multiple display mount system that offers easy and efficient, independent lateral and vertical adjustment of each individual display. The system includes a base, a vertical member extending upwardly from the base, and a pair of arms extending laterally outward on opposing sides of the vertical member. A pair of display interfaces is operably coupled to a separate one of the arms. Each of the display interfaces can enable the electronic display received thereon to be tilted about a generally horizontal tilt axis extending through the electronic display, and/or enable the electronic display received thereon to be pivoted about a generally vertical axis extending through the electronic display. The arms may be pivotally connected to the vertical member to enable positioning of the displays, and the displays may be separately vertically positionable relative to the vertical member.

  • Patent number: 9778550
    Abstract: A short throw projector mount enabling a finely tuned distance adjustment and/or finely tuned height adjustment of an attached projector. The mount includes a wall interface, a projector positioning head, and an elongate arm operably coupling the wall interface and the projector positioning head. A first end of the arm is coupled to the wall interface, and the projector positioning head is operably coupled proximate an opposing second end of the arm such that the projector positioning head is shiftable along a longitudinal axis of the arm. The arm further includes a positioning mechanism arranged to selectively drive shifting of the projector positioning head. A vertical positioning mechanism may be provided to shift the projector vertically relative to the wall interface.

  • Patent number: 9765923
    Abstract: A mount for mounting an electronic display on a wall includes a latch whereby the display interface portion of the mount can be selectively engaged and disengaged from the wall interface portion. The latch provides a positive visual and/or audible indication of when the mount is fully engaged. The mount may include a wall interface adapted to be secured to a wall or similar structure, and a display interface adapted to be secured to an electronic display. The wall interface generally includes a plurality of pairs of angled slots, each pair of angled slots having a different angle than the other pairs. The slots are adapted to receive fasteners which secure the wall interface to the wall, as well as enable adjustment of the tilt of the bracket so as to ensure the bracket is level.

  • Patent number: 9557632
    Abstract: A roller projection screen, including a projection screen material having a reflective front surface, onto which an image may be projected, and a back surface. The projection screen material is secured to a roller at an upper edge of the material and the projection screen material can be rolled in a spiral fashion in multiple layers around the roller. A buffer material is secured to the roller or to the back surface of the projection screen material so as to be adjacent the back surface and so as the be interposed between at least some of the multiple layers of the projection screen material when the projection screen material is rolled about the roller so as to inhibit ladder marks in the projection screen material.

  • Patent number: RE47043
    Abstract: A mounting bracket apparatus for adjustably supporting a flat panel display from a wall. The mounting bracket includes a wall bracket, a display bracket and two traversing mounts. The traversing mounts are supportively disposed between the wall bracket and the display bracket, and driven along a pair of substantially parallel linear axes by a pair of actuators enabling vertical adjustment of the display bracket. The traversing mounts are flexibly coupled between the wall bracket and the display bracket, thereby enabling misalignment of the positions to adjust the skew of the display bracket relative to the wall bracket.
