Display devices and methods for operating the same are provided. In one embodiment, the display device has an electronic display having an active area for presenting visual content; a housing holding the electronic display and having an opening allowing a person to view a first portion of the active area; and a bezel about the opening, the bezel covering a second portion of the active area and providing a window through which at least a part of the second portion can be viewed. A sensor system senses when a person is close to touching the bezel or when a person is in touch with the bezel and generates a sensor signal; and a controller is operable to adjust the appearance of the active area in the part of the second portion when the controller determines that a person has touched the bezel or is close to touching the bezel.

Electronic device, display and touch-sensitive user interface

A digital radiography system for imaging a subject. A support structure, coupled to an X-ray source and an X-ray imaging detector, is rotatable about a first axis and is linearly moveable. The X-ray source and the X-ray imaging detector are also rotatable about second and third axes, respectively, to provide an operator with a number of degrees of freedom to move the X-ray source and the X-ray imaging detector to different positions relative to a subject. Further, the system has means for coupling an operator control interface and a display to the X-ray source for permitting an operator to rotate them about a fourth axis so that the operator control interface and display are accessible to the operator such that the position of the operator does not have to change when the positions of the X-ray source and the X-ray detector are changed.

Digital radiography imaging system with rotatable display and controls

A touch-screen interface of an operator control panel is provided on an imaging assembly, such as a printing assembly, and communicates the state of the printing assembly and its primary components to an operator, even when the operator is standing beyond a normal reading distance from the printing assembly. The touch-screen interface provides for a graphical representation in the form of icons or displays that show those components that are of interest to the operator during printing. This would include but is not limited to paper supply and paper take-up magazines, the center portion or printing area of the printer, and the current paper or media path. The icons or displays are laid out spatially on the operator control panel in an overhead view to match the layout of the printing assembly. Further, each of the displays or icons are sized large enough to be easily viewed and understood from well beyond a normal reading distance.
