An optical stack and related electronic display assemblies and methods are disclosed. The optical stack includes a sub-stack. The sub-stack includes a micro lens array ('MLA') and a liquid crystal (“LC”) layer. The MLA and the LC layer are directly or indirectly bonded to one another as part of the sub-stack.

Optical stack with a liquid crystal layer and a micro lens array, electronic display assembly, and related methods

Display assemblies and related systems and methods are provided which provide condensation mitigation. A cover layer forms a forward portion of a housing for an electronic display located rearward of the cover layer. A continuous airflow pathway extends entirely within the housing such that the continuous airflow pathway is partitioned from an ambient environment. One or more gaskets are provided which, at least in part, partition the continuous airflow pathway from the ambient environment. The one or more gaskets extending from an interior surface of the cover layer to a portion of the housing.

Electronic display assembly

Display assemblies for inhibiting delamination of an optical stack are disclosed. A structural framework defines, at least in part, an enclosure for the optical stack, which includes an electronic display layer. One or more airflow passageways are located within the enclosure and define a continuous, interconnected airflow pathway extending along one or more surfaces of the optical stack. One or more fan units are positioned along the continuous, interconnected airflow pathway, and when activated, move gas through the continuous, interconnected airflow pathway and generate compressive forces at the optical stack, thereby reducing the likelihood of delamination.

Display assemblies for providing compressive forces at electronic display layers

Digital signage unit, such as for digital out of home advertising, with monitoring features are provided. The digital signage unit includes an electronic display, a sensor for measuring tilt, and a controller which receives data from the sensor and determines, from time to time, an operating status of the digital signage unit based, at least in part, on the data from the sensor.

Display unit with monitoring features

Display units for prioritizing requested operational updates are disclosed. A control subsystem is in electronic communication with an electronic display, sensor(s), and a thermal management subsystem. The control subsystem operates the display unit based on operational parameters which are specific to readings from the one or more sensors. Requests to update operational parameters for the display unit are received at the control subsystem and are prioritized for implementation.

Display units with automated power governing

Display assemblies utilizing air characteristic data to verify internal operating conditions and related systems and methods are disclosed. The display assembly includes a side assembly, including an electronic display, is connected to a structural framework. Sensor(s) are provided, at least one of which is located at, or fluidly connected to, a closed airflow pathway. A controller receives data from the sensor(s) and determines whether an initial indication of an operating condition exists. If so, a testing routine is initiated, additional data is received from the sensor(s) during and/or thereafter. The controller confirms whether the operating condition exists based on the additional data.

Display assemblies and related systems and methods for mounting are provided. A side assembly with electronic display and a mounting device positioned, at least in part, rearward of the electronic display having laterally extending portion and hooked portions facing, at least primarily, in a first direction is raised relative to another mounting device with hooked portions facing, at least primarily, in a second, opposing direction. The side assembly is raised so that the hooked portions of said additional mounting device clear the hooked portions of the mounting device as the side assembly is moved laterally rearward to at least partially overlap the hooked portions of the mounting device and the additional mounting device. The side assembly is lowered to engage hooked portions of the additional mounting device and the mounting device.

Self-contained electronic display assembly, mounting structure and methods for the same

Display units with vandalism deterrence are disclosed, along with related systems and methods. A display unit includes electronic display(s), shock sensor(s), and a controller which receives data from the shock sensor(s). Where the controller determines that the data received from the shock sensor(s) is outside of one or more predetermined parameters, the controller initiates a vandalism deterrence protocol for the display unit.

Display unit with vandalism deterrence features

Digital signage units for generating air quality related alerts and providing advertising images and/or wayfinding are disclosed, along with related systems and methods. The digital signage unit includes an air quality monitoring device located along an open loop pathway for ambient air. The air quality monitoring device includes sensor(s) and receives air characteristic measurement data from the sensor(s), where the air characteristic measurement data indicates a concentration for each of certain compound(s). Where the concentration of any one of the compound(s) exceeds a respective predetermined threshold, content displayed at an electronic display of the digital signage unit is modified to include displaying an alert.

A proof of play information system, and related assemblies and methods are provided. Electronic display assemblies include media players providing content for display at electronic displays thereof, some of which includes static advertising images. A unit controller is electronically interposed between the media player and the electronic display. Redundancy check codes are generated for the content items transmitted from the media player to the electronic display. If a consistent redundancy check code is consecutively generated for a respective one of the content items, cause a play count associated with the respective one of the content items is incremented.

Proof of play for images displayed at electronic displays

Bending mandrils and related bending machines and methods are disclosed, which include at least one ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) material. The mandril, which may comprise or consist of the UHMW material, is placed within an interior of a structure to be bent before the structure is bent about a pending die of the bending machine. Kerf cuts may be provided at the mandril for added flexibility. Other components of the bending machine, such as the following block and/or the bending die may also include panels of surfaces comprising a same or different UHMW material.

Systems and methods for remotely monitoring digital signage. Display assemblies include components for operation, including an electronic display, and sensor(s) for monitoring local conditions. Server(s) receive data from the sensors and components of the display assemblies by way of local controllers and network connection devices of the display assemblies. The data is stored such that data points thereof are identifiable to the display assembly and sensor or component of origination. Data requests are received requesting specific information. For each request, a subset of the data points is retrieved in accordance with the data request and at least one data output display is generated based on the subset of said data points.

Systems and methods for remotely monitoring electronic displays

Digital signage unit, such as for digital out of home advertising, with monitoring features are provided. The digital signage unit includes an electronic display, a sensor for measuring tilt, and a controller which receives data from the sensor and determines, on an ongoing basis, an operating status of the digital signage unit based, at least in part, on the data from the sensor.

Display assemblies and related systems and methods are provided which provide modified operations for condensation control. A controller calculates a dewpoint spread between a dewpoint temperature for air at the display assembly and an internal temperature for the display assembly determined based, at least in part, on data received from one or more sensors located along an airflow pathway extending within a housing for an electronic display. The controller continues to operate the display assembly in a modified operating mode until the dewpoint spread is determined to be above a predetermined threshold by at least a predetermined clear parameter. The controller continues to not operate in the modified operating mode unless and until the dewpoint spread is determined to be less than the predetermined threshold by at least a predetermined buffer parameter.
