Abstract: Methods and displays are disclosed for presenting media content on display systems. A display is configured as an array of LEDs. The array of LEDs includes a first set of rows including first LEDs in a repeating pattern of a first color LED, a second color LED, and a third color LED. A second set of rows includes second LEDs in a repeating pattern of the first color LED, the second color LED, and the third color LED, wherein the second set of rows are interleaved between the first set of rows and the second LEDs are offset relative to the first LEDs. Visual content to be presented on the display includes a repeating sequence of four frames of an array of virtual pixels such that each virtual pixel of the array comprises at least one of the first LEDs and at least one of the second LEDs.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for presenting media content on display systems. The display system includes two or more displays. In some display systems, the displays may be oriented in at least two different directions. Each of the displays are connected to a graphics communication bus. The graphics communication bus communicates common content information for the displays and discrete radiance-control information, which may contain different intensity and color control information for each of the displays. Each of the displays present the content information and adjust radiance characteristics of its display in response to the discrete radiance-control information associated with that display. The display system may include a computing system for controlling the graphics communication bus. The display system may also include ambient light sensors on each facet of the multifaceted display. Information from the ambient light sensors may be used for determining the discrete radiance-control information.

Abstract: An overhead arcade-like light display is disclosed. The display comprises a canopy of an open framework with elongated linear raceways containing electrical wiring and supporting thousands of bulbs gathered in groups of four identified herein as pixels. Pixels are closely and regularly spaced. The raceways are linearly positioned running the length of said arcade and placed parallel to one another to position themselves to become the interior arcuate frame structure. Each pixel is covered with a light diffusing dome and the individual bulbs are of a different color so that colors, shades, tones and hues of a thousand varieties may be obtained from each domed pixel. A display having in excess of one million bulbs with minimal wind resistance is readily constructible.
