Method and apparatus for dynamic signage using a painted surface display system
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- capturing image data with at least a camera of a painted surface display system;
analyzing the image data to determine a real-world context proximate to a painted surface, wherein the painted surface is painted with a photo-active paint;
determining electronic signage data based on the determined real-world context;
generating a sign image from the determined electronic signage data based on the determined real-world context; and
driving a spatial electromagnetic modulator to emit electromagnetic stimulation in the form of the sign image to cause the photo active paint to display the sign image on the painted surface,wherein capturing the image data includes capturing image data of both the sign image displayed on the painted surface and a user located adjacent to the painted surface,wherein analyzing the image data to determine the real-world context includes analyzing the user relative to the sign image currently displayed on the painted surface.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for generating dynamic signage using a painted surface display system is described. The method may include capturing image data with at least a camera of a painted surface display system. The method may also include analyzing the image data to determine a real-world context proximate to a painted surface, wherein the painted surface is painted with a photo-active paint. The method may also include determining electronic signage data based on the determined real-world context. The method may also include generating a sign image from the determined electronic signage data based on the determined real-world context, and driving a spatial electromagnetic modulator to emit electromagnetic stimulation in the form of the sign image to cause the photo active paint to display the sign image.

22. A painted surface display system comprising:
-
an audiovisual capture device to capture image data with at least a camera of a painted surface display system and a user located adjacent to a painted surface; a user recognition and context engine to analyze the image data to determine a real-world context proximate to the painted surface, wherein the painted surface is painted with a photo-active paint; a signage engine to determine electronic signage based on the determined real-world context; and a display engine to generate a sign image for the determined electronic signage based on the determined real-world context, and drive a spatial electromagnetic modulator to emit electromagnetic stimulation in the form of the sign image to cause the photo active paint to display the sign image on the painted surface, wherein the user recognition and context engine is configured to analyze the user relative to the sign image currently displayed on the painted surface when determining the real-world context.
