Patent Images
1. An autonomous pixel comprising:
- a display element;
a plurality of different sensors arranged to detect one or more external stimuli;
a control element arranged to generate, entirely within the autonomous pixel, a control signal to drive the display element based, at least in part, on a magnitude of an external stimulus detected by one or more of the different sensors, anda power harvesting element, wherein there are no electrical connections between the autonomous pixel and other autonomous pixels.

Abstract
An autonomous pixel comprises a display element, a plurality of different sensors and a control element. The sensors are arranged to detect one or more external stimuli and the control element is arranged to generate, entirely within the autonomous pixel, a control signal to drive the display element based, at least in part, on a magnitude of an external stimulus detected by one or more of the different sensors.

17. A method of operating an autonomous pixel comprising a display element, a power harvesting element, a first sensor arranged to detect a first external stimulus, a second sensor arranged to detect a second external stimulus, and a control element, the method comprising:
generating, in the control element and entirely within the autonomous pixel, a control signal to drive the display element based, at least in part, on a magnitude of the first external stimulus detected by the first sensor and/or the second external stimulus detected by the second sensor, wherein there are no electrical connections between the autonomous pixel and other autonomous pixels. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
