Abstract

A display device having a display portion having a screen for viewing a motion picture video. The display device also includes a processing device in communication with the display portion capable of converting motion picture video data to a motion picture video on the screen and audio data in the sound playback. The motion picture video simulates the view as seen from a window, having single point of view, real-time recordings of video locations having continuous motion picture video segments. The display device also includes framing attached to the display portion configured to provide the display portion and the framing with the appearance of a window, framed photograph, painting or wall-hanging.

Claims

1. A display device comprising:

a display portion having a screen for viewing a motion picture video;

a processing device in communication with the display portion and being capable of converting motion picture video data to a motion picture video on the screen, the motion picture video simulating a view as seen from a window, having single point of view, real-time recordings of video locations having continuous motion picture video segments; and

framing attached to the display portion configured to provide the display portion and the framing with the appearance of a window, framed photograph, painting or wall-hanging.

2. The display device of claim 1, wherein the components include a structure selected from the group consisting of a window frame and a picture frame.

3. The display device of claim 1, wherein the motion picture video data includes uninterrupted video segments of at least 5 minutes substantially devoid of time compression.

4. The display device of claim 1, wherein the processing device is integrated into the framing components.

5. The display device of claim 1, further comprising a lighting device in communication with the processing device to produce light of a color and intensity corresponding to the light and intensity of light shown in the motion picture video.

6. The display device of claim 1, further comprising sound producing devices in communication with the processing device to produce sound corresponding to the sound in the motion picture video.

7. The display device of claim 1, further comprising a plurality of display portions in communication with the processing device.

8. A display device system comprising:

a video capture device;

a computing device in communication with the video capture device;

a display device comprising;

a display portion having a screen for viewing a motion picture video;

a processing device in communication with the display portion and being capable of converting motion picture video data captured by the video capture device to a motion picture video on the screen, the motion picture video simulating a view as seen from a window, having single point of view, real-time recordings of video locations having continuous motion picture video segments greater than about 5 minutes in length; and

framing attached to the display portion configured to provide the display portion and the framing with the appearance of a window, framed photograph, painting or wall-hanging.

9. The display device system of claim 8, further comprising a distribution system in communication with the computing device for distributing motion picture video, the distribution system comprising a distribution mechanism selected from the group consisting of physical delivery, digital data network and broadcasting network.

10. The display device system of claim 8, further comprising a data storage system in communication with the computing device for storing the motion picture video data for subsequent transfer of the motion picture video to the display device.

11. The display device of claim 8, wherein the components include a structure selected from the group consisting of a window frame and a picture frame.

12. The display device of claim 8, wherein the motion picture video data includes uninterrupted video segments of at least 5 minutes substantially devoid of time compression.

13. The display device of claim 8, wherein the processing device is integrated into the framing components.

14. The display device of claim 8, further comprising a lighting device in communication with the processing device to produce light of a color and intensity corresponding to the light and intensity of light shown in the motion picture video.

15. The display device of claim 8, further comprising sound producing devices in communication with the processing device to produce sound corresponding to the sound in the motion picture video.

16. The display device of claim 8, further comprising a plurality of display portions in communication with the processing device.

17. A method for visually extending a room space and creating desired controlled emotional experience comprising:

capturing motion picture video data with a video and audio capture device;

processing the motion picture video data to produce a motion picture video;

displaying the motion picture video on a display device comprising;

a display portion having a screen for viewing the motion picture video;

a processing device in communication with the display portion; and

framing attached to the display portion configured to provide the display portion and the framing with the appearance of a window, framed photograph, painting or wall-hanging.

wherein the motion picture video simulates a view as seen from a window, having single point of view, real-time recordings of video locations having continuous motion picture video segments.

18. The method of claim 17, further comprising a plurality of display portions in communication with the processing device.

19. The method of claim 18, wherein the processor independently provides each of the plurality of display portions with the motion picture video.

20. The method of claim 17, further comprising distributing the motion picture video with a distribution system, the distribution system comprising a distribution mechanism selected from the group consisting of physical delivery, digital data network and broadcasting network to the processor.

21. The method of claim 17, further comprising storing the motion picture video with a data storage system for subsequent transfer of the motion picture video to the display device.

22. The method of claim 17, further comprising providing lighting with a lighting device in communication with the processing device to produce light of a color and intensity corresponding to the light and intensity of light shown in the motion picture video.

23. The method of claim 17, further comprising providing sound with a sound producing devices in communication with the processing device to produce sound corresponding to the sound in the motion picture video.
