POV DISPLAY DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17916915 titled 'POV DISPLAY DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR
Simplified Explanation
The present invention is a persistence of vision (POV) display device that uses a light emitting element. It includes a fixed module with a motor, a rotating module that is rotated by the motor, and at least one panel attached to the rotating module. The panel has a plurality of light sources arranged in pixels. The device also includes a light source module with a light emitting element array, a memory to store video data, and a controller to control the order of input and output of the video data.
- The device uses a motor and rotating module to create a persistence of vision effect, where the human eye perceives continuous motion from a sequence of rapidly changing images.
- The panel on the rotating module has a plurality of light sources arranged in pixels, allowing for the display of detailed images.
- The light source module includes a light emitting element array, which provides the necessary illumination for the display.
- The memory stores video data received from an external source device, allowing for the display of various videos or animations.
- The controller controls the order of input and output of the video data, ensuring smooth and synchronized playback.
Potential Applications
The POV display device has various potential applications, including:
- Advertising: The device can be used for eye-catching and attention-grabbing advertisements in public spaces.
- Entertainment: It can be used in amusement parks, concerts, or events to create visually stunning displays and enhance the overall experience.
- Information Display: The device can be used to display important information or messages in public areas, such as airports, train stations, or shopping malls.
- Art Installations: Artists can use the device to create interactive and dynamic art installations that engage viewers.
