23 Jul PLURAL UNIT MONITOR
Abstract
A mosaic of monitor units contained in a single covering provide higher-resolution monitor displays proportional to the number of monitor units contained in the monitor casement. The extension of the flat viewing surface of the monitor in one or more directions accommodates the touch screen function both over the monitor surface and in the area surrounding it with one transparent layer between both the electronic image and marginal fixed markings and the touch response surface reduces parallax factors. A receiver and signal processor which outputs dual signals, the first defining the image in a Standard Broadcast mode and the second providing selected sharpness where detail is required. The method for action video of transmitting only the changes in the high-resolution areas cuts data transmission and recorded date levels. Audio unit configuration accommodations directionally both listening and speaking reducing sound contamination in the environment and allowing response in the direction of the sound source. These developed can improve both video and computer presentations, and in the visual display combine video, computer and computer graphics imaging. Special engineering design reduces the electrical power requirements. For even higher-resolution displays, more optical fibers in the image plates of the cameras and a multiplicity of processors, recording bands and RAM Memory unites to accommodate the increase in resolution are provided. Cameras accommodated include video cameras and scanning cameras as for air surveillance and tissue probes.
