US Patent:
2007027, Dec 6, 2007
Filed:
Apr 26, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/740668
Inventors:
Christopher Varrin - Monte Sereno CA, US
Nils Thorjussen - Palo Alto CA, US
Matthew Ward - San Francisco CA, US
Jeremy Hochman - Austin TX, US
Jeff Maddox - Austin TX, US
David Main - Boulder Creek CA, US
Assignee:
ELEMENT LABS, INC. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
G09G 3/30
US Classification:
345076000, 345082000
Abstract:
A light emitting apparatus and a method of displaying an image therewith is disclosed. The light emitting apparatus includes a spine and a rib. The rib is attached to the spine and includes a plurality of alternating nodes and connection links. At least one of the connection links is thinner in cross-section than at least one of the nodes. The light emitting apparatus then further includes a connector to attach multiple light emitting apparatuses together. The light emitting apparatus further includes a plurality of pixels, in which the pixels are configured to receive a data signal and power.

Light-Emitting Display Architecture

US Patent:
2008013, Jun 12, 2008
Filed:
Jun 7, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/759859
Inventors:
Christopher Varrin - Monte Sereno CA, US
Nils Thorjussen - Palo Alto CA, US
Matthew Ward - San Francisco CA, US
Jeremy Hochman - Austin TX, US
David Main - Boulder Creek CA, US
Assignee:
ELEMENT LABS, INC. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H05B 37/02
US Classification:
315291
Abstract:
A light-emitting display driver architecture and a method of supplying power and data thereto are disclosed. The driver architecture includes a wire interface with a host controller electrically connected thereto. Further, first and second pixel nodes are connected to the wire interface in parallel. The first and second pixel nodes each include a communication unit, a control unit, a driver, and a light-emitting element. A data signal and a power signal is then transmitted from the host controller through the wire interface, in which data is extracted from the data signal for the first pixel node based upon a fixed unique ID corresponding to the first pixel node.
