Abstract: A venue includes an exterior structure having a spherical-like shape, a theater area inside the exterior structure, an audience seating area positioned in the theater area, a first plurality of light-emitting diodes, and a second plurality of light-emitting diodes. The theater area includes an interior curved surface. The audience seating area has a plurality of levels of seating. The first plurality of light-emitting diodes are positioned to facilitate providing a first display along the interior curved surface and in front of, to the side, above, and behind at least a portion of the audience seating area, and a second plurality of light-emitting diodes positioned to facilitate providing a second display around at least a majority of the spherical-like shape of the exterior structure.

Abstract: A venue includes an exterior structure, a theater area inside the exterior structure, an audience seating area positioned in the theater area and facing the stage, and a mezzanine area positioned inside the exterior structure, outside of the theater area, and at least partially beneath the audience seating area. The theater area includes an interior surface that provides or supports a display. The display is an immersive display that extends along the interior surface such that the display is positioned in front of, to the sides, above, and behind at least a portion of the audience seating area.

Abstract: A venue includes a display screen, a performance stage, and an audience area. The display screen has (i) an inner periphery, (ii) an outer periphery, and (iii) at least one of a non-linear or a curved cross-sectional shape that is at least partially revolved around a center point. The performance stage (i) is positioned between the inner periphery and the outer periphery of the display screen and (ii) at least partially extends along at least one of the inner periphery or the outer periphery of the display screen. The audience area is positioned between the inner periphery and the outer periphery of the display screen.

Abstract: A compositing screen includes a partially or fully transparent front screen that displays one image or video and a back screen displaying another image or video. The two images can be seen simultaneously, providing a composite image.

Abstract: An entertainment venue can include one or more theaters, including a toroidal or other immersive display screen (which immerses the audience in a contiguous projection surface), a moving stage, and an audience area. Audience seating in the theater faces outwardly in an “inverted-theater-in-the-round” arrangement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for keeping time for at least two players of a game. The device includes: a housing with at least two surfaces; an orientation sensor arranged in the housing for sensing the orientation of the housing; a display arranged at each of the at least two surfaces of the housing; a timer corresponding to each surface; and a controller for registering the orientation from the orientation sensor and controlling the display and the timer corresponding to an active surface, which depends on the orientation of the housing.
