Abstract: Display units with vandalism deterrence are disclosed, along with related systems and methods. A controller in electronic communication with an electronic display and a network communication device of the unit initiates a vandalism deterrence protocol at the display unit in response to receipt, by way of the network communication device, of a signal from a second display unit indicating occurrence of a vandalism event at the second display unit.

A method of constructing a video interface device, including enclosing a first camera in an optically-transparent enclosure, the enclosure being configured for sanitization; attaching the first camera in the optically-transparent enclosure to a height-adjustable mount; attaching a computer display to the height-adjustable mount; and attaching a cart to the height-adjustable mount, such that the first camera and the computer display are configured to facilitate communication with at least one remote system.

Abstract: A structure comprising a first substrate, a plurality of matrix elements in operable connectivity with the first substrate, and a plurality of interconnecting features to configured to connect the plurality of matrix elements to form a first planar tile.

Abstract: Display assemblies with data security and authentication features, along with related systems and methods are provided. The display assembly includes a processing device in electronic communication with a media player and an electronic display. The processing device checks for a valid digital signature in files received from the media player for playing at the electronic display. Only if the valid digital signature is found will the processing device allow the received video file to be played at the electronic display.

Abstract: Display units with vandalism deterrence are disclosed, along with related systems and methods. A display unit includes electronic display(s), shock sensor(s), and a controller which receives data from the shock sensor(s). Where the controller determines that the data received from the shock sensor(s) is outside of one or more predetermined parameters, the controller initiates a vandalism detected signal, which may electronically and automatically cause changes to ongoing operations of some or all of the one or more electronic displays.

Abstract: An apparatus including: a first clamp plate having an inner diameter defining an aperture, a first outer diameter, and a first thickness; a second clamp plate having: a second outer diameter, and a second thickness. The bottom clamp plate and the top clamp plate are configured to clamp a printed circuit board by penetrating the printed circuit board, the printed circuit board including at least one component positioned within the aperture during clamping of the printed circuit board by the first clamp plate and the second clamp plate.

Abstract: Display assemblies and related systems and methods providing field leak testing are disclosed. An electronic display assembly includes an electronic display, a differential pressure sensor fluidly connected to an ambient environment and an internal area, and fan(s) located within, or fluidly connected with, the internal area. Differential pressure readings are taken before and while and/or after to command a speed of the fan(s) to be temporarily increased. Where an insufficient change is provided, indication of a probable leak is provided.

Abstract: A first instrument comprising at least one signal generator, at least one resistor, at least one voltage measurement device including a positive input and a negative input, at least one monitored conductor terminal coupled to a monitored conductor, at least one reference conductor terminal coupled to a reference conductor, and at least one processor operably connected to the at least one signal generator and the at least one voltage measurement device.

Abstract: Methods and systems for the generation of non-lethal and lethal effects using ultra-short pulse lasers. A laser source generates pulses at the direction of a controller and directs the pulses along an optical path to one or more high-speed beam steering devices, also directed by the controller, which then directs the laser pulses to achieve the desired effects. A computerized controller receives a specification of one or more desired effects for one or more targets and calculates a distribution of ultra-short laser pulses as well as the required characteristics for each of the pulses.
