Abstract

The present disclosure provides methods and computer systems for displaying or projecting media on a remote visual curvilinear display. In a computer system, a computer server may be in network communication with an electronic device of a user. One or more parameters associated with the user may be determined. The media may be selected for display or projection by the remote visual curvilinear display device of the user. The media may be selected based on the one or more parameters associated with the user. The media may be directed from the computer server to the electronic device for display or projection on the remote visual curvilinear display. An item of value of the user may be received on the computer server in exchange for the media.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein said remote visual curvilinear display further comprises one or more input devices including a microphone, camera, touch screen keypad, keyboard, or a combination thereof, and wherein the method further comprises, after (d), receiving an input comprising a request for one or more additional media, wherein said input is received from said one or more input devices of said remote visual curvilinear display device.

11. The method of claim 9, wherein said input is received from said user.

12. The method of claim 9, wherein said input is received from an observer of said remote visual curvilinear display, wherein said observer is distinct from said user.

14. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

identifying one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays that are distinct from and in proximity to said remote visual curvilinear display;

coordinating said remote visual curvilinear display with said one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays using respective location information of said remote visual curvilinear display and said one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays;

identifying coordinated media for display or projection by said remote visual curvilinear display and said one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays, wherein each display of said remote visual curvilinear display and said one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays said coordinated media or a respective portion of said coordinated media; and

providing said coordinated media or respective portion of said coordinated media for display or projection on each display of said remote visual curvilinear display and said one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays.

18. The method of claim 1, further comprising tracking media usage information associated with said user on said remote visual curvilinear display.

19. The method of claim 1, further comprising creating a dashboard for display or projection on said remote visual curvilinear display, wherein the dashboard displays aggregate information based on selections of said media by a plurality of users.

20. The method of claim 1, wherein in (a), said computer server is in network communication with said remote visual curvilinear display through an electronic device of said user.

21. A computer system for displaying or projecting media on a remote visual curvilinear display, comprising:

a communication interface in network communication with an electronic device of a user, which electronic device is in communication with said remote visual curvilinear display of a user; and

a computer processor in communication with said communication interface, wherein said computer processor is programmed to;

(i) determine one or more parameters associated with said user, wherein said one or more parameters comprise a display and/or location preference or schedule of said user;

(ii) select said media at said computer server for display or projection by said remote visual curvilinear display of said user, wherein said media is selected based on said one or more parameters associated with said user;

(iii) direct said media from said computer server to said electronic device for display or projection on said remote visual curvilinear display per said display and/or location preference or schedule of said user; and

(iv) receive, at said computer server, an item of value of said user in exchange for said media.

23. The computer system of claim 21, wherein said remote visual curvilinear display further comprises one or more input devices including microphone, camera, touch screen keypad, keyboard, or a combination thereof, and wherein said computer processor is further programmed to, after (iii), receive an input comprising a request for one or more additional media, wherein said input is received from said one or more input devices of said remote visual curvilinear display.

26. The computer system of claim 23, wherein said input is received from an observer of said remote visual curvilinear display, wherein said observer is distinct from said user.

28. The computer system of claim 21, wherein said computer processor is further programmed to:

identify one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays that are distinct from and in proximity to said remote visual curvilinear display;

coordinate said remote visual curvilinear display with said one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays using respective location information of said remote visual curvilinear display and said one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays;

identify coordinated media for display or projection by said remote visual curvilinear display device and said one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays, wherein each display of said remote visual curvilinear display device and said one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays display said coordinated media or a respective portion of said coordinated media; and

provide said coordinated media or respective portion of said coordinated media for display or projection on each display of said remote visual curvilinear display and said one or more additional remote visual curvilinear displays.

32. The computer system of claim 21, wherein said computer processor is further programmed to track media usage information associated with said user on said remote visual curvilinear display.

33. The computer system of claim 21, said computer processor is further programmed to create a dashboard for display or projection on said remote visual curvilinear display device.
