  • Patent number: 10303416
    Abstract: In one embodiment, the modular display includes aggregates of individual panel tiles arranged between two large plastic sheets. The footprint of the large plastic sheet sandwich becomes the dimension of the display screen. The tilettes are phosphor emission panels with a full complement of emittable pixels. By separating the tilettes from the final full dimension sheet, the tilettes can be manufactured in transportable sizes and the outer full dimension sheets can be rolled for easy transport to the final install location.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: May 28, 2019
    Assignee: PRYSM, INC.

  • Patent number: 8803772
    Abstract: Fluorescent screens and display systems and devices based on such screens using at least one excitation optical beam to excite one or more fluorescent materials on a screen which emit light to form images. The fluorescent materials may include phosphor materials and non-phosphor materials such as quantum dots. A screen may include a multi-layer dichroic layer.

  • Patent number: 8258685
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention generally provide an apparatus and method for forming a display screen assembly that comprises multiple panel assemblies which are positioned to form a tiled display device that has improved visual characteristics, is easy to assemble and has a reduced manufacturing cost. In general, each panel assembly is formed so that when it is positioned in a display screen assembly the grid pattern, formed by the gap between the illuminated regions in adjacent panel assemblies, can be minimized. In one embodiment, the unwanted visual effect of the grid pattern is mitigated by minimizing and controlling the space, or gaps, formed between the illuminated area in adjacent panel assemblies. Embodiments of the present invention may also provide an apparatus and method for forming a single panel assembly that is used to display an image.

  • Publication number: 20110305000
    Abstract: A display screen having phosphor regions maximizes light leaving the phosphor regions using a gaseous, liquid or solid matter that is disposed between the light-producing phosphor regions and a divider member configured to separate the light-producing phosphor regions. The gaseous, liquid or solid matter may be air, a polymer, a gel, or other material that optically separates and has an index of refraction substantially less than the indices of refraction of the divider member and the light-producing phosphor regions.

  • Publication number: 20050081235
    Abstract: A data storage system is provided which utilizes cartridges having data storage media. The system has a housing having an optical data storage system, such as a holographic data storage system. Each cartridge has a window through which the media may be partially or fully removed when located in the housing, a slot through which the data storage drive can engage the media upon a positioning mechanism, and a shutter mechanism which closes the window and slot. When the cartridge is inserted in the housing, its shutter mechanism is engaged to open the window and slot of the cartridge, and the media is coupled through the slot to the positioning mechanism, which partially or fully removes the media from the cartridge through the window for presentation to the optical data storage system. Once operation on the media is completed by the optical data storage system, the positioning mechanism moves the media back into the cartridge and is decoupled from the media.
