  • Patent number: 10937343
    Abstract: A display device includes a housing with a grid assembly received therein. A plurality of light assemblies is coupled to the grid assembly, for example in a grid pattern to create a dynamic display area. Each of light assemblies has an actuator assembly, with each one of the actuator assemblies being individually controllable to move the corresponding light assembly between a retracted state and a plurality of extended states. A controller is coupled to each of the plurality of light assemblies and programmed to control the actuator assemblies to move the light assemblies between the retracted state and the plurality of extended states.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 25, 2017
    Date of Patent: March 2, 2021

  • Patent number: 7097310
    Abstract: A ceiling-mounted projection system has a projector mounted above the ceiling, and a periscope assembly that can be moved by a motor along a vertical axis between a raised position in which the periscope assembly is retracted into the ceiling and a lowered position in which the lower portion of the periscope assembly extends below the ceiling. An upper mirror is mounted on the upper portion of the periscope assembly and aligned to reflect images from the projector in a downward direction when the periscope assembly is in the lowered position. A lower mirror is mounted on the lower portion of the periscope assembly and aligned to reflect the images from the upper mirror onto a viewing surface when the periscope assembly is in the lowered position.
