Abstract
A spherical electronic display is disclosed that includes a spherical display screen that is able to display electronically generated images on its surface using electronic display technology included in the surface, and an electronic control unit in communication with the spherical display screen, the electronic control unit being able to cause the spherical display screen to display images. The electronically controlled spherical display uses low energy display technology, such as LCD and/or OLED electronics, included within the spherical surface. This approach avoids the need to project images onto a spherical screen, and thereby avoids any need for high energy optical projectors and their associated costs and maintenance requirements. The spherical display is connectable to an electronic control unit that can be located either within the sphere or within a support base. The electronic control unit can be a conventional computer or a self-contained, dedicated controller.
