Abstract

Dual display screens are oriented back-to-back such that one display screen is visible from a first direction and one display screen is visible from a direction opposite the first direction.

Claims

1. A method, relating to displaying at least one electronic image on back-to-back oriented electronic image display screens, comprising the steps of:

a) providing at least two electronic image display screen modules arranged in a back-to-back orientation, having shared display-screen-module image-controller circuitry, within a single common unitary housing, such electronic image display screen modules arranged so that at least one displayed electronic image may be viewed simultaneously by at least two persons when such at least two persons are situated on opposite sides of at least one of the at least two electronic image display screens; and

b) receiving at least one image signal, comprising the at least one electronic image, from at least one signal generator external to such single common unitary housing;

c) wherein such shared display-screen-module image-controller circuitry permits display of the at least one electronic image on such electronic image display screen modules permitting viewing of the at least one displayed electronic image by the at least two persons.

2. The method, according to claim 1, further comprising the steps of permitting controlling, by a first person, such displayed electronic image.

3. An electronic image display system relating to displaying at least one electronic image on back-to-back oriented electronic image display screens permitting viewing of the at least one displayed electronic image by at least two persons when such at least two persons are situated on opposite sides of the at least two electronic image display screens, said electronic image display system comprising:

a) at least two electronic image display screen modules arranged in a back-to-back orientation, having shared display-screen-module image-controller circuitry, within a single common unitary housing, said at least two electronic image display screen modules arranged so that at least one displayed electronic image may be viewed simultaneously by at least two persons when such at least two persons are situated on opposite sides of said at least two electronic image display screens; and

b) at least one image signal receiver to receive the at least one image signal comprising the at least one electronic image from at least one signal generator external to said single common unitary housing;

c) wherein said shared display-screen-module image-controller circuitry permits display of the at least one electronic image on said electronic image display screens modules.

4. An electronic image display system relating to displaying at east one electronic image on back-to-back oriented electronic image display screens permitting viewing of the at least one displayed electronic image by at least two persons when such at least two persons are situated on opposite sides of the at least two electronic image display screens, said electronic image display system comprising:

a) at least two electronic display screen modules arranged in back-to-back orientation, having shared display-screen-module image-controller circuitry, within a single common unitary housing, said at least two electronic image display screen modules arranged so that at least one displayed electronic image may be viewed simultaneously by at least two persons when such at least two persons are situated on opposite sides of said at least two electronic image display screens; and

b) at least one image signal receiver to receive the at least one image signal comprising the at least one electronic image from at least one signal generator;

c) wherein said shared display-screen-module image-controller circuitry permits display of the at least one electronic image on said electronic image display screen modules.
