Abstract: Systems and methods for an illuminating status indicator for an image display device are provided. In one example, an image display device is provided including a light source, an image generating element configured to receive light from the light source, and in response, generate an image, a projection lens configured to display the image on a viewing surface, and an illuminated status indicator configured to visually indicate a status of the image display device and extending at least partially around the projection lens. The example image display device further may include a control system in communication with the light source, the image generating element, and the illuminated status indicator and a housing comprised of a plurality of faces, where the housing encloses the light source, the image generating element, and the control system and where the illuminated status indicator is viewable by a user when the user is looking at a face of the housing.

Abstract: An image display device is provided with a cord organizing apparatus. The image display device includes a housing enclosing electronic componentry, a plurality of analog, digital, or power cords coupled to and extending from the electronic componentry, and a cord organizing apparatus coupled to the housing. The cord organizing apparatus includes a plurality of teeth and at least a first tooth opening and a second tooth opening sized to removably retain the cords.

Abstract: A projection device that includes a plurality of touch sensitive buttons, a backlight system for selectively illuminating each of the plurality of touch sensitive buttons, and a control device configured to control the backlight system to vary illumination of the plurality of touch sensitive buttons as a projection device operating state varies.

Abstract: A projection device is provided. In one embodiment, the projection device may include an optical system mounted within the projection device and having an optical system axis substantially parallel to the optical system. The projection device further may include a combination control operatively coupled to the optical system and having a control axis that is non-parallel to the optical system axis.
