1. A robotically controlled video display system comprising:
- a first robotic display comprising;
a first robotic display mount comprising a base and a moveable support, said moveable support having one more portions moveable about at least an x axis, a y axis and a z axis which are perpendicular to one another;
at least one first motor configured to move said moveable support; and
at least one first electronic video projector capable of projecting visual information in response to a video signal input, said at least one first electronic video projector mounted to said moveable support for movement by said first robotic display mount; and
at least a second robotic display comprising;
a second robotic display mount comprising a base and a moveable support, said moveable support having one more portions moveable about at least an x axis, a y axis and a z axis which are perpendicular to one another;
at least one second motor configured to move said moveable support; and
at least one second electronic video projector capable of projecting visual information in response to a video signal input, said at least one second electronic video projector mounted to said moveable support for movement by said second robotic display mount; and
an electronic controller configured to control said at least one first motor and said at least one second motor to move said at least one first and at least one second electronic video projectors independently of one another in the three dimensions about said x axis, said y axis and said z axis, whereby said at least one first and second electronic video projectors may be moved so that they project independent or combined visual information.

Abstract
A robotic mount is configured to move an entertainment element such as a video display, a video projector or a staircase. The robotic mount is movable in three-dimensions, whereby the associated entertainment element is moveable in three-dimensional space. In one embodiment, a unitary display comprises a plurality of closely spaced individual displays which are mounted to robotic mounts, whereby the configuration of the unitary display may be altered by changing the position of one or more of the displays relative to the others.
