  • Publication number: 20250054218
    Abstract: A virtual window is located at a first location and includes an electronic display configured to be mounted on or embedded in a surface of a building and a layer of tempered glass spaced from the electronic display. The glass protects the electronic display and provides reflections of light visible to a user. A computer system is communicably coupled to the electronic display and configured to store a view of a second location downloaded from a computer server, wherein the video is manipulated based on sunrise and sunset times at the first location. Downloading of the view from the computer server to the virtual window is controllable by a software application running on a user device operable by the user.

  • Publication number: 20240303896
    Abstract: An apparatus includes an electronic display configured to be positioned in a first location and one or more processors electronically coupled to the electronic display. The processors receive a video from a server. The video depicts a view of a second location and includes an image of a rectangular casing, a frame, and one or more muntins. The image is composited with the video by the server to provide an illusion of a window in the second location to a user viewing the video. The rectangular casing surrounds the window. The processors synchronize a time-of-view at the second location in the video with a time-of-day at the first location and synchronize a second length-of-day at the second location in the video with a first length-of-day at the first location. The processors transmit the video to the electronic display for viewing by the user.
