20080284801 | STEREOSCOPIC 3D LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY APPARATUS WITH BLACK DATA INSERTION - A display apparatus includes an liquid crystal display panel having a frame response time of less than 5 milliseconds, drive electronics configured to drive the liquid crystal display panel to black between images that are provided to the liquid crystal display panel at a rate of at least 90 images per second, and a backlight positioned to provide light to the liquid crystal display panel. The backlight includes a right eye solid state light source and a left eye solid state light source capable of being modulated between the right eye solid state light source and a left eye solid state light source at a rate of at least 90 Hertz. | 11-20-2008 |
20090009317 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING DATA COLLECTED VIA WIRELESS NETWORK SENSORS - An apparatus for processing data collected via a wireless network sensor includes modules for receiving and processing the data. The wireless network sensor includes a plurality of sensors for detecting events occurring proximate the sensors, a processor for receiving and processing data from the sensors, and a wireless transmitter for wirelessly transmitting data. The apparatus also includes modules for parsing events, episodes, vectors, links, and paths based upon the received data. The paths can be used to generate a representation of traffic patterns in a space monitored by wireless network sensors. | 01-08-2009 |
20090009323 | DISPLAY OF INFORMATION RELATED TO DATA COLLECTED VIA WIRELESS NETWORK SENSORS - A method for displaying an indication of data collected via a wireless network sensor involves processing the collected data to generate reports. The wireless network sensor includes a plurality of sensors for detecting events occurring proximate the sensors, a processor for receiving and processing data from the sensors, and a wireless transmitter for wirelessly transmitting data. The method displays an indication of parsed events, episodes, vectors, links, and paths based upon the received data. Another method displays a representation of a location of each sensor in the wireless network sensors in a monitored environment and information related to data collected via the sensors. | 01-08-2009 |
20090009339 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR LOCALLY PROCESSING DATA ON WIRELESS NETWORK SENSORS - A wireless network sensor includes several sensors for detecting events occurring proximate the sensors. It also includes a processor for receiving and processing data from the sensors and a wireless transmitter for wirelessly transmitting data. The processor is programmed to determine if an event occurred related to a particular change in a signal level of a signal received from one of the sensors and compress the event data. The compressed data can then be wirelessly sent to a computer for additional processing such as providing an indication of traffic patterns in an area monitored by the wireless network sensor. | 01-08-2009 |
20090091667 | EMBEDDED STEREOSCOPIC 3D DISPLAY AND 2D DISPLAY FILM STACK - An LCD device with 3D and 2D sections. The device includes an LCD panel, a light guide with a backlight, and an embedded 3D-2D film stack positioned between the LCD panel and the light guide. The 3D and 2D sections provide for simultaneously viewing visual content in 3D and 2D formats. The device can also include a frame providing a barrier between the 3D and 2D sections and can include other features to enhance the display. | 04-09-2009 |
20100208041 | STEREOSCOPIC 3D DISPLAY DEVICE - 3D stereoscopic viewing enabled by the use of a fast switching speed LCD panel, dynamic backlight, and low cost glasses. The system utilizes an LCD panel with an LED backlight and wavelength selective glasses to isolate each channel by color. The system is based on alternating left and right image frames on an LCD panel. The left and right frames are illuminated by two slightly different red-green-blue light sources that are synchronized sequentially. The light sources are designed to emit light of different spectral composition. The viewer wears glasses where the left lens or filter passes only the spectrum of light used for the left channel of data, and the right lens or filter passes only the spectrum of light used for the right channel of data. | 08-19-2010 |

20110193872 | CONTROL SYSTEM FOR HYBRID DAYLIGHT-COUPLED BACKLIGHTS FOR SUNLIGHT VIEWABLE DISPLAYS - A control system for a hybrid daylight-coupled display having an LCD panel, a diffuser, and a curved reflector behind the LCD panel, and an active backlight for providing backlighting from an active light source. For passive backlighting, the diffuser transmits daylight to the reflector, which reflects the daylight to the LCD panel and provides substantially uniform distribution of the daylight on the LCD panel for backlighting it. The control system comprises a sensor unit detecting ambient light level surrounding the LCD display and another sensor unit detecting backlights provided by the active backlight and the daylight. The control system adjusts the brightness of the active backlight based on data from the two sensor units. | 08-11-2011 |
