Abstract: A wall-mounted jukebox system for mounting adjacent to a wall-mounted external video display includes a jukebox having a controller configured to play digital music and/or digital video files, a communication module connected to the controller and configured for wireless and/or wired communication with one or more external devices, a video output port connected to the controller and configured to enable the jukebox to be connected to the wall-mounted external video display, and a cabinet housing the controller, communication module, and video output port. A mounting bracket is configured to receive the jukebox and to be affixed to the wall adjacent to the wall-mounted external video display. The jukebox lacks a physical user interface, a video display screen, and a physical payment acceptor, and selection of the digital music and/or digital video file for play by the controller and payment are received through the communication module from an external device.

Abstract: A jukebox for playing music and presenting video to a user includes a housing, a user interface display mounted to the housing, a controller mounted to the housing and being in communication with the user interface display and a video display mountable to the housing. The controller is mounted in a cavity defined by the housing. The video display is in communication with the controller. The controller, the user interface display and the video display are configured to facilitate the user's selection of a song from a plurality of songs stored in the controller and to selectively display a video associated with the selected song on the video display.

Abstract: An overlay for a nonportable amusement device is provided. The nonportable amusement device has a housing, a display, a memory and a controller. The overlay includes one or more panels selectively attachable to and removable from the housing of the nonportable amusement device.

Abstract: A venue-specific entertainment system is described. A communications controller is configured to communicate with electronic devices deployed at a venue, including at least two different types of electronic devices. The electronic devices are configured to communicate with one another by transmitting messages through the communications controller. The communications controller detects events based upon information from the electronic devices and transmits messages to other electronic devices to modify their output based upon the detected events.

Abstract: A system for configuring a venue environment based on venue-specific observations is described. A controller receives inputs associated with one or more patrons of the venue. The inputs are analyzed to determine one or more environmental preferences associated with the patrons. At least one environment modification is identified based on the one or more environmental preferences. The venue environment is modified based on the identified modifications.

Abstract: An amusement device having a display, a memory and a controller. The amusement device includes a housing defining an internal cavity and a chassis secured to the housing and defining a chassis plane. The chassis is positioned at least partially within the internal cavity. A control board support defines a board plane and the control board support has a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the board plane is generally perpendicular to the chassis plane and in the open position, the board plane is generally parallel to the chassis plane. The control board support is slidably and rotatably movable between the closed position and the open position. The control board support is positioned within the internal cavity in the open and closed positions and when moving therebetween.

Abstract: A foldable personal mobility vehicle is disclosed comprising first and second units having first and second wheels being rotatable about first and second axles. A drive unit rotates the second wheel for moving the foldable personal mobility vehicle. A pivot disposed substantially parallel to the first and second axles pivotably connects the first unit to the second unit for folding the personal mobility vehicle. The foldable personal mobility vehicle may include a folding unit for automatically folding the foldable personal mobility vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle is disclosed having a reduced turning radius comprising a directional wheel assembly for turning the vehicle and a drive wheel assembly for driving the vehicle. The drive wheel assembly has a first and a second drive wheel independently driven by a first and a second motor through a control circuit. A counter-rotation circuit counter-rotates the first and second drive wheels upon a major turning position of the directional wheel assembly to enhance the turning of the vehicle. A reducing circuit reduces the speed of the motors upon a minor turning position of the directional wheel assembly. The vehicle may include a slide mechanism for providing a reduced wheelbase to further reduce the turning radius of the vehicle. One embodiment of the invention includes an improved steering device for controlling the directional wheel assembly.

Abstract: A retractable armrest is disclosed for a foldable chair. The chair has a seat and a backrest with the backrest being pivotably mounted to the seat by a chair pivot for movement between an operating position and a folded position. A link pivotably operates between armrest and the seat for enabling the armrest to be rotated into the retracted position when the backrest is in the operating position. The link rotates the armrest from the extended position to the retracted position upon the backrest being moved from the operating position to the folded position. The foldable chair is suitable for use on a personal mobility vehicle such as a scooter, a power wheel chair, a foldable personal mobility vehicle or any other suitable chair.

Abstract: A variable wheelbase personal mobility vehicle is disclosed comprising a front wheel assembly and a rear wheel assembly. A front wheel is pivotably mounted relative to the front wheel assembly for controlling the direction of movement of the personal mobility vehicle. Plural drive wheels are mounted relative to the rear wheel assembly for driving the personal mobility vehicle. A seat is connected to the rear wheel assembly for supporting an operator. A variable wheelbase mechanism varies the distance between the front wheel and the plural drive wheels.
