Abstract
A remotely controlled electronic display sign which operates with a plasma display and which provides for humidity and heat control and the like allowing the sign to be used in various environments. The sign is essentially self-contained and includes those components necessary for enabling a display of desired material from a remote control source or one located at the sign. A controller in or associated with the sign is accessible either electrically, or through satellite transmission or other wireless transmission from the remote source which allows the display of the sign to be changed at will. Thus, an operator at a remote source may, with the aid of a pre-prepared graphic design, transmit that design to the controller at or associated with the sign for display of that graphic information and potentially with sound.

22. A display system for generating an image on a plurality of individual display members and allowing for modification of the image that is displayed thereon, said display system comprising:
-
a) a plurality of outer housings; b) a plurality of display panels with a display panel on each said housing and being observable to a viewer; and c) a dedicated computer means with respect to said housings and being adapted for the operation of said display panels, said computer means operating on the basis of a series of sequential programmed instructions at a predetermined time or on a real time basis, said computer means controlling the image presented on certain of said display panels, and being capable of altering the manner in which a display is generated on said certain of the display panels. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24)

27. A display system for generating displays in the form of successively displayed images at certain locations, said display system comprising:
-
a) a plurality of spaced apart electronically operable display panels with wide angle viewing for displaying such successively displayed images; b) self-contained computer operated processing means associated with said display apparatus for generating a plurality of displays from electronic signals containing information relating to the displays and which signals may be delivered from a remote source; c) memory means associated with said display system forming part of said processing means and storing information delivered in digital signal format as digital signals and allowing the digital signals to be reconverted to visible images which are displayed at one or more selected ones of said display panels, and where a large number of different displays are storable in said memory means and displayed at time selected periods independently of external electronic signals from a remote source. - View Dependent Claims (28, 29, 30, 31, 32)

33. A method for generating a plurality of displays at a plurality of separate display members and which displays are originated at a remote source and electronically transmitted to the separate display members which may be located at a substantial distance from the remote source, said method comprising:
-
a) electronically creating a plurality of displays at a display generating remote source with each in the form of visual images; b) converting the visual images to corresponding electronic signals at the display creating remote source; c) transmitting the electronic signals to a self-contained computer processing means associated with at least one of the display apparatus; d) storing the electronic signals representative of the images in the form of digital signals in a memory means associated with said computer processing means; e) positioning each of the display members at fixed and generally separate locations for operation at that fixed location for a display of the images on the display member; and f) re-converting the digital signals into corresponding visual images and displaying the same on the display member. - View Dependent Claims (34, 35, 36, 37)

38. A display system for generating a display an image on a display and enhancing the image of the product or service which may be displayed thereon, said display system comprising:
-
a) an outer housing; b) a display panel on said housing and being observable to a viewer; and c) a computer means in proximity to said housing and dedicated to the operation of at least one said display sign system, said computer means operating on the basis of a series of sequential programmed instructions at a predetermined time or on a real time basis, said computer means controlling the image presented on said display panel, said computer means begin capable of altering the direction and manner in which a display is generated on the display panel and is capable of providing enhancement of any computer generated effects on a display on the display panel and thereby enhance modify the image displayed on said display panel, said computer means also being capable of providing animation to a displayed product or service to increase consumer appeal to the displayed product or service. - View Dependent Claims (21, 25, 26, 39)
