  • Publication number: 20260084819
    Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods are described herein for display stowage detection. A display device having a display screen can be disposed within a housing, such as an armrest of a vehicle. The housing can have one or more objects disposed within an interior of the housing such that the one or more objects interact with the display screen of the display device when the display device is being inserted into and/or removed from the housing. The specific interaction of the one or more objects with the display screen as the display device is being inserted into the housing causes the display device to automatically power off the display screen.

  • Patent number: 5694213
    Abstract: An adapter for coupling a display monitor to a computer that controls the monitor generates any selected one of a number of codes that can be sensed by the computer and which identify the image resolution at which the particular monitor operates or a resolution that has been selected by the operator in the case of multi-sync monitors. A rotary hexadecimal switch, which may be operated by turning a dial, simplifies code selection and a multi-channel dip switch enables expansion of the number of available codes. The dip switch also enables selective changing of sync signal connections within the adapter to accommodate to different monitors that have different sync signal input requirements. The adapter may be a separable unit which can be interconnected between the computer and monitor or may be a permanent built in component of the monitor image data input cable.
