    摘要: Disclosed embodiments are directed at devices, methods, and systems for fixing distortions of content displayed on in-flight entertainment (IFE) monitors in a commercial passenger vehicle. An IFE monitor can receive angular measurement data from one or more gyroscope sensors to determine a differential angle of tilt of the IFE monitor. In response to determining that the differential angle of tilt is non-zero, the IFE monitor can detect that content displayed on the IFE monitor is subject to distortion. The IFE monitor can automatically apply a perspective correction to the content displayed on the IFE monitor for fixing the perceived distortion.

    摘要: A device for inputting data into an information processing apparatus using a communication cable. The device includes a sensing field including signal lines. The sensing field generates one or more signals when an object is proximate thereto. The device further includes at least one processor connected to the signal lines. The processor receives the signals and generates data based on the signals. The device additionally includes a port in communication with the processor for data output. The port is configured to connect to the cable and communicate the data over the cable to the information processing apparatus. The device includes a light source configured to illuminate keyboard symbols corresponding to areas of the sensing field. The device also includes an exterior surface covering the sensing field and obscuring the keyboard symbols from visibility unless the light source is providing illumination.

    摘要: In-vehicle entertainment (WE) monitor systems can be reconfigurable and modular to improve heat dissipation characteristics and to enable separate removal or installation of one or more parts within the WE monitor system without affecting the rest of the IVE monitor system. A modular system for providing in-vehicle entertainment to passengers on a commercial passenger vehicle includes a main housing, a peripheral housing, and a display panel that are separately removable or installable. A main printed circuit board (PCB) in the main housing is electrically connected to a secondary PCB in the peripheral housing via the first data cable and the secondary PCB is electrically connected to the display panel via the second data cable in a series configuration.

    摘要: A system for improving the impact safety and methods for manufacturing and using same. The system includes a panel that comprises a panel surface having a frangible region. The panel can be formed from a translucent material, such as glass. The frangible region is indistinguishable from the remainder of the panel during normal conditions but enables the panel to break in a safe, predictable manner when a predetermined amount of force is applied to the frangible region. Thereby, the panel does not shatter or form sharp shards. Instead, the frangible region breaks away from the panel as an intact unit without internal fracturing. Risk of personal injury thereby can be minimized. The lack of sharp shards likewise facilitates clean up and replacement of the broken panel. The panel advantageously can be applied in video monitors and emergency equipment such as fire extinguisher cabinets disposed aboard passenger vehicles and in stationary environments such as the home or office.

    摘要: An assembly for mounting a display device in a vehicle. The assembly includes a mounting plate having opposite edges, a front surface extending therebetween, and a rear surface opposite the front surface. The mounting plate is mountable to the vehicle with the front surface of the mounting plate facing outward. The assembly includes a first locking mechanism disposed proximate one edge of the mounting plate and a second locking mechanism disposed proximate the other edge. Each locking mechanism includes a jaw extending over the front surface of the mounting plate and pivotable between closed and open positions. Each jaw includes a resiliently deformable biasing member connected to the jaw and biasing the jaw towards the closed position. The assembly includes an electrical connector attached to the mounting plate. The electrical connector has an opening for mating with another connector
