Display System and Methods
First Claim
1. A light emitting display system on a support structure, the light emitting display system comprising:
- a) a plurality of light emitting display sub-assemblies attached to said support structure, the plurality of light emitting display sub-assemblies collectively creating a visual display having no perceivable gaps or overlaps between adjacent light emitting display sub-assemblies;
b) each of said light emitting display sub-assemblies comprising;
i) a plurality of light emitting elements affixed to a substrate, the edges of the substrate defining a contiguous perimeter;
ii) said plurality of light emitting elements arranged in a matrix formation;
iii) a plurality of pixel gaps defined, one of said plurality of pixel gaps defined between each pair of adjacent light emitting elements;
iv) each of said plurality of pixel gaps spaced so that all of said plurality of pixel gaps are substantially the same size;
v) one or more bend points disposed on said substrate within said plurality of pixel gaps, each of said one or more bend points characterized in that said substrate is curveable around said bend point;
vi) a portion of said plurality of light emitting elements configured so that each light emitter of said portion is spaced from said contiguous perimeter by a distance about one half the size of said pixel gap;
c) said plurality of light emitting display sub-assemblies disposed on said support structure so that a portion of said contiguous perimeter of each of said plurality of light emitting display sub-assemblies abuts a portion of said contiguous perimeter of an adjacent light emitting display sub-assembly.

Abstract
A display system and methods; in general, a plurality of display sub-assemblies collectively creating a viewing plane. Each display sub-assembly having a plurality of light emitting elements on a substrate with a plurality of substantially equal pixel gaps between light emitting elements. Bend gaps are provided between pixels that enable the display sub-assemblies to bend thereby creating a curved viewing plane. A mobile LED panel display may be formed of a plurality of LED display modules having a plurality of pixels, four or more casters, a battery powered supply, a media player (electrically communicating with the plurality of display modules for controlling the display of images on the LED panel display, and a removable content storage device and; thus, functions as a rugged, light weight, battery powered display to inform customers and passers-by about product and service offerings via a rugged person size mobile light weight battery powered display.
