Large-audience, positionable imaging and display system for exhibiting panoramic imagery, and multimedia content featuring a circularity of action
First Claim
1. A large-audience, positionable imaging and display system for the imaging and exhibition of visual-media content, comprising:
- a.) a screen-display configured for the exhibition of panoramic imagery having an interior surface-perimeter and an exterior surface-perimeter, wherein, each of said surface-perimeters is shaped and sized to be substantially contiguous in appearance and to have a display-surface viewing area of a panoramic type, over a wide-angle field extending up to a full 360°
of azimuth, on which, substantially contiguous panoramic visual-media content and segmented visual-media content can be imaged;
b.) at least one screen support means for supporting the shape of said screen-display;
c.) screen positioning means to position said screen-display to at least one height relative to a viewing audience to provide a multitude of vantagepoints from which to view at least one of said surface-perimeters; and
, d.) exhibition means for imaging and controlling said contiguous panoramic visual-media content and said segmented visual-media content on at least one of said surface-perimeters.

Abstract
A large-audience, positionable imaging and display system for the imaging and displaying of visual-media content, comprising a screen configured for the display of panoramic imagery having an interior surface-perimeter and an exterior surface-perimeter, wherein each of said surface-perimeters are substantially contiguous in appearance and are sized and shaped to have a display area on which, substantially contiguous panoramic visual-media content and segmented visual-media content can be imaged. The system has at least one support means for supporting the shape of a panoramic screen-display and a screen positioning means for positioning the display to at least one height relative to a viewing audience to provide circumnavigable viewing, and a multitude of vantagepoints from which to view at least one of the surface-perimeters of the panoramic display. The system also provides visual-media content exhibition means for imaging and controlling the contiguous panoramic visual-media content and the segmented visual-media content on at least one of its surface-perimeters. The system optionally provides an array of speakers that are positioned around a perimeter of the system'"'"'s screen that are driven by audio amplifiers each connected with at least one audio source to provide a sound-system, and as desired, a panning of audible sound.
