Abstract
A universal flat panel display mounting system includes a central hub and a plurality of telescoping arms pivotably connected to the hub. The arms are intermeshed to provide synchronized movement relative to each other. By telescoping the arms to adjust their length, and adjusting the angles of the arms, connection points on the arms may be positioned so that the universal flat panel display mounting system may work with flat panels in different VESA size categories or for flat panel displays that don't conform to the VESA standard. The universal mounting system is configured to enable the pitch of the flat panel display to be adjusted and to enable the flat panel display to be rotated relative to the mounting system. The mounting system may connect to arms or brackets to enable it to be supported on a pole, a wall mounting system, or in another manner.
