Abstract

Certain example embodiments relate to a system including a user-interactive display device having LCDs in substantially parallel spaced apart relation to one another. A proximity sensor is located proximate to the user-interactive display device. A controller is configured to perform instructions to perform functionality including: generating visual content, including one or more user interface elements (e.g., user-interactive elements), for output to the user-interactive display device; causing the user-interactive display device to display the generated visual content; receiving output from the proximity sensor; determining when an object of interest comes into proximity to the user-interactive display device, based on the received output from the proximity sensor; and responsive to a determination that the object of interest has come into proximity to the user-interactive display device, updating the generated visual content and causing the updated generated visual content to be displayed via the user-interactive display device.
