  • Publication number: 20240131215
    Abstract: Systems and methods for creating a germicidal partition. A germicidal partition system including at least one negative ion generator including at least one negative high-voltage source, at least one high-voltage conductor electrically connected to the at least one negative high-voltage source, and at least one anode electrically connected to the at least one high-voltage conductor, and at least one fan configured to draw air into the system, direct the air through the at least one negative ion generator, and output the air through at least one manifold, wherein the air outputted through the at least one manifold is configured to create a barrier between a first air mass and a second air mass, such that the outputted air reduces at least one of the transfer of contaminants or the concentration of viable contagions between the first air mass and the second air mass.

  • Publication number: 20080259209
    Abstract: A system and method for processing and displaying a unitary image formed from the combination of a broadcast signal with a second signal with no or minimal modification, alteration or degradation of the broadcast signal. In one embodiment, the system and method processes and displays a High Definition Television (HDTV) video signal with another High Definition (HD) video and/or non-video digital media signal as one combined HD image. This convergence allows the HDTV video signal and the additional HD signal to be displayed on a monitor as a combined HD image without any modification in the appearance of the HDTV image when compared to an unprocessed HDTV image. The system and method allows an HDTV video signal to be wrapped and displayed with an additional media, such as advertising and entertainment, in a variety of display configurations. The advertising and entertainment may be selected based on various considerations to provide targeted advertising and entertainment.
