Description

Descriptive Report: N-DIMENSIONAL SCAN IMAGE DISPLAY APART

DESCRIPTION 1. Technical Field The present invention relates to a method and n-dimensional scanning display apparatus whereby even a high-speed observer can see the content displayed by using the image effect. that can display a large image using a small number of display elements. 2. History [002] As a conventional method of displaying advertisements on storefronts or in shop windows, or for billboard advertisements, a method is generally adopted which uses an advertisement board made of painted metal sheet or some plastic material, a method in which a box is placed on the back of a plastic or glass sheet on which an image is drawn and illumination is placed on the box and a method that uses an advertisement board containing a neon or LED panel . Recently, new Q-vision type electrical display systems have been used, with an enhanced image of large TV, liquid crystal TV or LED type, such as a jumbotron.

However, according to each of these conventional display methods, the display is basically directed towards a still person or a person who moves very slowly, and therefore conventional methods present a problem in which a person is moving. at high speed near the display apparatus cannot see the content being displayed. With the recent increase in vehicle speed and the recent reduction in space for the construction of advertising towers or the like, there has been a growing need for a display apparatus in which the displayed content can be viewed correctly even from a moving vehicle.

[004] In the method using a neon signboard or advertisement, displayed content, such as text or image, cannot be changed or can hardly be changed. In contrast, in a newly developed advertising panel or TV-type display system, the displayed content can be easily changed, but the mechanism is complex.

In addition, it is desirable to develop a display apparatus containing an enhanced ad display function capable of attracting the attention of an average passenger more easily than in the conventional technique.

Based on this background, it is an object of the present invention to provide a display apparatus whereby the displayed content can be viewed and read even by a person moving in a vehicle at high speed and a large image can be displayed. be displayed through a small amount of display elements.

DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION

The n-dimensional scanning display method of the present invention is characterized by obtaining an n-dimensional image on a display apparatus having a (n-1) -dimensional display plane, by the switching operation of the display plane and moving operation of one of the display apparatus and the moving member for observation, the scan operation of the image in the remaining direction is obtained.

According to the present invention, by moving from one of the display apparatus and the moving member to the observation, the display of an n-dimensional image can be achieved in the (nl) -dimensional plane by using the The residual image effect of an observer and an image display equivalent to the image display achieved by conventional technique can be obtained through a smaller number of display elements.

The n-dimensional display apparatus of the present invention is fixedly installed at the passage of the moving member for observation and comprises a sensing zone which detects the passage of the moving member for observation and sends information about motion, a data formatting zone, which generates a display switching control signal based on motion information from the sensor zone and sends the data to be displayed, and a display zone, which contains an array zone (n-1) -dimensional display composed of various emitting elements which are arranged to receive the data to be displayed based on the display switching control signal received from the data formatting zone and switching and displaying images- (n -1) -dimensional in regular succession.

[010] If the scanning operation in one direction is then performed by moving the moving member for observation and the timely change of display data in the display apparatus, the number of display elements may be reduced, and even in one. subway tunnel, where a displayed image can hardly be seen, a passenger can clearly recognize the image without moving his neck.

[011] In the present invention, the display zone is constructed by connecting several display units, each containing serial-parallel conversion features, display activation features, and a display matrix zone.

[012] By adopting this structure, the number of image elements in the display zone can easily be increased and decreased.

[013] In addition, the display zone display zone is constructed to have a large number of display matrix columns, which is less than the number of pixels along the aforementioned direction of motion. , displayed with the movement of the moving limb for observation.

In this structure, displaying the displays of the respective display matrix columns coordinated in time in sync with the movement speed of the moving limb for observation, the display time of the image at a given position viewed by the observer may be extended by the number of display matrix columns. Consequently, the brightness level of the displayed image may be substantially increased.

The n-dimensional scanning image display apparatus of the present invention is comprised of a display zone, which contains a (n-1) -dimensional array zone, an activation zone for the activation of the scanning zone. display in a direction not parallel to the alignment direction of the display matrix zone display elements and a data formatting zone for generating a control signal for display zone display switching and for sending data - (n-1) -dimensional display of the image to the display in the display zone.

Embodiments of the Invention The embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[041] Figure 1 is a block diagram illustrating the entire structure of the first embodiment of the present invention. The whole circuit is roughly divided into three blocks: a sensor zone, a data format zone, and a display zone. The sensor zone comprises a sensor circuit 11 for detecting the movement of a vehicle in which an observer is being transported (hereinafter referred to as a "moving limb") and an evaluation section 12 for calculating the direction of movement and the speed of movement of the limb moving from the information received from the sensor circuit 11. The data formatting zone comprises a memory section 14, a parallel-serial conversion section 15 for converting 8-bit parallel data received from the memory zone into data and a time generator 13 for forming addresses for memory section 14 and generating control signals for the respective zones. The display zone comprises a serial-to-parallel conversion section 16 for receiving serial data from the data formatting zone and converting it to parallel data, a display activation section 17 for storing the data in parallel and activating the elements. and an array of display matrix 18 containing the appropriate display elements capable of being switched on and off according to a predetermined LED scan speed, EL or the like.

[042] The sensor zone will now be described in detail, with references to Figure 2.

The sensor circuit 11 contains a first sensor 11A and a second sensor 11B disposed at a predetermined distance between them along the direction of movement of the moving member. Each of sensors 11A and 11B uses the optical triangulation method shown in Figure 2. Explicitly, each sensor is composed of an emitter element 11a, a projection lens 11b, a light-receiving lens 11c, and a position sensing element 11. d; a beam of the emitting element 11a is converged by the projection lens 11d and projected onto the surface of a substance to be detected and a portion of the scattered and reflected light passes through the receiving lens 11c and is detected by the position sensing element 11d. Assuming that two bodies A and B are located distant from emitter element 11a at different distances, the light reflected by the body located at the nearest position forms a point at a position a of the position sensing element 11 d, while the light reflected by body B , located at the farthest position, forms a point at position b. Accordingly, the distance from the body to be detected can be assessed by detecting the position of the point in the position detector element 11.

The evaluator section 12 is composed of a CPU equipped with an internal timer 12A including an oscillating part 12a, a time counter 12b and a frequency division rate computer circuit 12c.

[045] For example, operation conducted when an electric vehicle approaches the first sensor 11A will not be described.

[046] Detection signals (assumed as high level signals) are output from the first sensor 11A and the second sensor 11B, in that order, and the assessment is that an electric vehicle came from the side of the first sensor 11A. The first sensor detection output 11A is fed to the evaluation section CPU 12, the internal timer 12A time counter 12b starts counting, and counting is stopped when the second sensor 11B detection output is received on the CPU 12. A frequency division rate is determined by the computer circuit of the frequency division rate 12c based on the value of an oscillating part clock counter 12a and the determined frequency division rate DIV is fed as information of the electric vehicle speed in the generator 13 of the data formatting zone. When the detection signal of the first sensor 11A disappears (low level) before the detection signal of the second sensor 11B is fed to CPU 12, the assessment is that the body is not an electric vehicle and a start signal for the display is not issued and the counter is reset.

[047] The value measured by time counter 12b corresponds to the time ts of the passage between both sensors 11A and 11B. Consequently, as the distance s between the first sensor 11A and the second sensor 11B is known, the speed v of motion of an electric vehicle can be detected by the formula v = s / ts.

Assuming that the range capable of avoiding a driver's visual field is Lm from the tip of the electric vehicle, the display device is placed within that distance and, when the ratio of I> L is established between that L and the distance I from the tip of the electric vehicle to the first passenger window or door for the electric vehicle, the time t1 between the detection point of the electric vehicle and the point of engagement of a passenger 's visual display apparatus is expressed by t1 = l / ve, since velocity v is expressed by v = s / ts, t1 is expressed by the formula t1 = f / tsts. Therefore, by multiplying the time corresponding to the count value by l / s, the time between the detection point of the electric vehicle and the point of entry of the display apparatus in the passenger's visual field can be determined. Therefore, a start trigger for the display apparatus is issued after the above mentioned time l / s ts has elapsed from the detection point of the electric vehicle. In this case, the display apparatus consists of eight display units 50 and the activation times of the respective display units 50 are controlled by enabling the ENO signals to EN7 by the CPU 12. After the ENO enable signal is output by the above start trigger, enable signals EN1 through EN7 are output in regular succession. Assuming that the distance between each two adjacent display units is d, since the electric vehicle speed v is given by v = s / ts, the time td of passing through this distance d is given by td = d / vd / sx ts . Consequently, with a delay time of d / s x ts from the start trigger emission point of the first display signal, the start trigger for the next display unit is issued. The direction of movement of the electric vehicle is detected by assessing which of the detection outputs of the first sensor 11A and second sensor 11B are generated first, as mentioned above. The output of display data should be reversed depending on the direction of movement of the mobility device. In the current configuration, the order of the sensing outputs of the two sensors 11A and 11B is evaluated by CPU 12 and, for example, when it is judged that the first sensing output was received from the first sensor 11A, the direction rating DIR signal The DIR signal is set to the low level and when it is evaluated that the first sensing output has been received from the second sensor 11B, the DIR signal of direction of motion evaluation is set to the high level. Thus, the address line is bit-reversed according to the output state of the movement direction evaluation DIR signal. Therefore, without changing the operation of the address counter, it is substantially possible to reverse the display data and output the reversing data, and the display of the image according to the direction of movement of the electric vehicle can be achieved. A control flowchart for assessing the movement speed and direction of movement of the electric vehicle is presented in Figure 4.

[049] The data formatting section will now be described by reference to Figure 5, which shows a block diagram illustrating in detail the time generator 13.

[050] Latch 41 is a latch used to store the frequency division rate DIV obtained by decoding the moving limb velocity information, which is sent by the evaluator section 12 to the frequency divider. A programmable oscillator 42 is composed of VCO 425 and a phase comparator 423 as its main components for generating an oscillatory frequency of reference oscillator 422. The frequency generated by VCO 425 is divided by programmable frequency divider 421 at a predetermined rate and is sent to the phase comparator 423. The reference signal generated by the reference signal generator 422 is sent to the phase comparator 423. The phases of the two signals are compared by the phase comparator and sent as control voltages to the VCO 425. through LPF 424. Thus, a PLL circuit is created.

Using such a programmable oscillator, an oscillatory frequency is obtained which is a certain number of times higher than the reference signal frequency, but the desired function can also be achieved by a method in which a predetermined frequency is set. obtained by dividing an appropriate frequency by the programmable frequency divider.

[052] The ADR-CK is set by a counter 43 based on the CK clock obtained by this programmable oscillator and an LDB load signal is set by a condition circuit 45. The count value of an address counter 44 is increased. of 1 each time the ADR-CK rise is detected by an address counter of memory section 14. Based on the outputs of counter 43 and address counter 44 a DLCK data clock signal is generated by a condition 46 for display activation section 17. The CK clock, issued by the programmable oscillator, takes the SCK offset clock of the parallel-serial conversion section 15 and the clock generated by the inversion of the above-mentioned CK clock becomes the Serial-Parallel Conversion Section Offset Clock 16. For example, in the case where the moving limb speed is 40 km / h, the display time is 100 ms, the number of pixels is 256 x 128 and each element of i image includes two color elements R (red) and G (green) (each being 1 bit); Since 65536 color elements (256 x 128 x 2 x 1 color elements) are displayed within 100 ms, it will suffice if the programmable oscillator CK clock is generated around 655 kHz. Assuming that the moving member travels at a speed of 30 km / h in the state where the programmable oscillator oscillatory frequency is thus programmed, as the moving member travel distance in 100 ms is about 83 cm if the The scanning apparatus scanning speed is maintained at the same level as when the moving limb travel speed is 40 km / h, a long 128 cm x 83 cm display with a smaller width is formed. If the moving limb passes at a speed of 50 km / h, a large display of 128 cm x 139 cm is formed. Accordingly, by detecting the moving limb speed and changing the scanning speed, the clock frequency CK is set at about 492 kHz when the moving limb speed is 30 km / h or about 818 kHz when The speed of the moving limb is 50 km / h. In this case, the display time is changed to 133 ms or 80 ms, but the same 128 cm x 111 cm display plane can be obtained.

[053] The display zone will now be described with reference to Figures 6- (a) and 6- (b).

[054] Since the data transfer to the display zone from the data format zone is serial, assuming a display unit 50 is constructed, for example, of 8 blocks, each consisting of 32 dots. of color elements, it is possible to easily increase or decrease the number of image elements of each unit, as shown in Figure 6- (a), and three lines would be sufficient to connect each two adjacent units 50.

[055] On display unit 50, as shown in Figure 6- (b), serial data that exits parallel-serial conversion section 15 of the data format zone is sent to a shift register 51 on pin G and retention and offset are performed by the DSCK offset clock of the time generator 13. Then, 32 offset data is placed in offset register 54 and, similarly, 32 offset data becomes output to the subsequent block. If data from one column is shifted to all 50- units (8 units in the present configuration), the data is stored in drivers 52 and 55 by the time generator 13 DLCK enable clock and instead of the data from the previous column. , the stored data is displayed on display elements G 53 and display elements R 56 of display matrix section 18. If the clock obtained by reversing the DSCK offset clock is sent as the DLCK enable clock, the data that being shifted are displayed to produce the expression of a color image.

[056] The principle of displaying an image by this display apparatus will now be described.

[057] As an example, the case in which a two-dimensional display consisting of L x M pixels as shown in Figure 7- (d) is obtained in the display plane will now be described. In this case, each image element contains one color element R, one color element G, and one color element B.

[058] As shown in Figure 7- (a), a one-dimensional display apparatus composed of (L x 1) imaging elements is placed vertically and the moving member moves at a speed of x0 m / s by one point. away from the display apparatus at a vertical distance nm. The h value is determined by the viewer's field of view angle and display area. Figure 7- (b) is a plan view of Figure 7- (a).

Assuming that the display time of an image plane is t ms, the observer shifts from xm by t ms, as shown by the equation x = (x0 · t) / 1000.

[060] At this point, it seems to the observer that the display apparatus moves relatively by xm Figure 7- (c). If new data is displayed on the one-dimensional display apparatus every t / M ms, a display of (L x M) imaging elements can be obtained - Figure 7- (d). Assuming that the size of the image element is Ay x Δχ, as shown in Figure 7- (e), Ay is determined by the interval between the display elements of the one-dimensional display apparatus and Ax is determined by the movement speed of the observer and by the switching speed of the display.

[061] Note that if the observer pursues the display apparatus with his own eyes, the display area is smaller than xm. This is because the display area changes relative to the observer's visual field angle. Consequently, there is a mutual relationship between the observer's speed of movement and the distance h to the display apparatus.

[062] The relationship between the observer's movement speed and the distance h to the display apparatus will now be described.

[063] The speed of movement that can be visually detected by a person is (1) 15 ° / s when the eyes are fixed or (2) 25 ° to 30 ° / s when the eyes are moved along with the moving object. and (3) the upper limit of movement speed that can be visually detected (beyond which only one light band is observed) is 50 ° / s.

[064] Thus, feeling a body moving through the eyes is defined by the angular velocity and, in Figure 7- (b), the ratio of distance x between A and B to distance h is expressed by the equation x = 2 h tg Θ /2. That is, a proportional relationship is established between h and x.

Accordingly, in order to achieve a desirable image scanning operation it is necessary that the movement speed of the moving member must increase with increasing distance h between the display apparatus and the moving member.

[066] The case in which a two-dimensional display is obtained by the apparatus of the present embodiment using the display principle mentioned above will now be described.

[067] In this case, the LED display pigment has an R chip and a G chip installed on it, so the explanation will be given based on the assumption that an image element is composed of two color elements, R and G, and generates the one-bit display.

With reference to Figures 8 (a) to - (c), the viewer views the display zone from the moving limb as having a length of approximately 128 cm and consisting of (256 x 1) elements of Image. Assuming that the moving limb moves at a speed of 40 km / h to the left in the drawing, it appears to the viewer that the display zone moves relatively as shown in Figure 8- (a). Assuming the display time is 100 ms, the display zone moves to the right by about 111 cm during this display time, as shown below: 40 ■ 1000 · 100 111 = ------- --------- 60 · 60 ■ 10 [069] That is, a 128 cm x 111 cm display can be obtained for 100 ms Figure 8- (b). If display zone data is exchanged at 78 ps intervals, a (256 x 128) pixel display can be obtained because 78 ps = 100 ms / 128, as shown in Figure 8- (c).

[070] The data stream in the example described above will now be described by reference to the time chart of Figure 9.

[071] When the moving member passes through the sensor zone, the sensing circuit 11 senses this motion and, based on this sensing information, the evaluating section 12 recognizes the direction of motion and the speed of motion to provide the decoded data and the start trigger for the data format zone. Image plane data is read from data formatting in succession and image planes O, ... M, ... are displayed as shown in the time chart. In this case, the image plane data of a frame comprises 128 columns of data. Each of the data in a column contains 32 of the read R and G data of memory section 14 having the 8-bit structure. The read data is transferred as serial data to the display section from the data formatting section.

More specifically, when decoded data (DIV frequency division rate data) is placed in latch 41 of time generator 13 at a speed of 40 km / h from the sensor zone, as mentioned above, the oscillatory frequency The programmable oscillator, based on the above data, is set at 655 kHz to generate the CK clock. The ADR-CK address clock output times determining the address formation time of memory section 14, the LDB load signal determining the data loading time within memory section 14, the SCK offset clock determining the data transfer time from parallel-serial conversion section 15, the DSCK offset clock determining the data load time of serial-parallel conversion section 16 and the DLCK data enable clock determining the load time of the data from display activation section 17 is determined by time generator 13 based on its frequency of 655 kHz and these clocks are emitted at predetermined times.

[073] The address within memory section 14 is designated by an address counter signal 44, in which the count value is increased by one every ADR-CK address clock rise. 8-bit data read from the specified memory address is loaded as parallel data in parallel-serial conversion section 15 at SCK shift clock rise when the LDN load signal is low. Then, with each subsequent rise of the SCK shift clock, the data is transferred as serial data from parallel-serial converter section 15 to serial-parallel converter section 16 and placed in serial-parallel section 16 at each DSK shift clock rise. , which is the inverted clock of the SCK offset clock. When the 256 bit data of each R and G is fully shifted to the display zone consisting of 8 display units in the manner mentioned above, the above data is stored in the display activation section 17 by the generator DLCK enable clock. 13 are displayed as column data COLn of a column in display matrix 18. Simultaneously, data transfer from subsequent columns begins. If 128 columns of data are thus transferred, a 128 cm x 111 cm image plane, which is made up of (256 x 128) pixels, is displayed.

[074] If the display apparatus composed of the structure mentioned above is used, the display apparatus may be placed in a position in which the conventional display apparatus cannot be placed, because the distance between the observer and the wall surface is too short, such as in a subway or tunnel, and the displayed content cannot be read due to observer movement. In addition, the size of the image display plane can be easily changed based on the speed of observer movement through electronic scanning. Moreover, since a n-dimensional image plane can be obtained by the dimensional (n-1) -device apparatus, the number of display elements can be substantially reduced compared to the amount of conventional technique display elements. and therefore the structure of the apparatus can be simplified.

[075] It is worth noting that a modification can be adopted whereby three sensors are placed and, when there is a change in speed, the acceleration of that speed change is computed and the display switching speed is corrected as the speed changes.

[076] In the configuration described above, a two-dimensional image display is illustrated, but a three-dimensional display can be produced.

[077] Figures 10- (a) to - (e) are diagrams illustrating the operation of the second embodiment, in which the three-dimensional image display is produced. The display section shown in Figure 10 is formed as a display plane of (L x M) image elements, unlike the one-dimensional display section. When the moving member passes left in the drawings, as shown in Figure 10- (a), the display section is viewed by the viewer as moving to the right - Figure 10- (b). Consequently, while the amount of data increases the data format section data, as shown in Figure 1, it is exchanged at the switching speed set according to the moving member movement speed and a sphere is displayed. of (L x Μ x N) elements as shown in Figure 10- (c).

[078] This setting will now be described with reference to displaying a sphere as an example. As shown in Figure 10 (d), the sliced sphere data is transferred in succession to the two-dimensional display section. At this point, the sliced sphere data may be fed at predetermined intervals as shown in Figure 10- (d), or the sliced data may be transferred at different feed times as shown in Figure 10- (e). As the data transfer feed times are refined, the image of a better defined sphere is displayed.

[079] In the case where LEDs are used as display elements, the directional characteristic of the LED element is shown in Figure 11 and sometimes it occurs that the angle of the visual field is considerably restricted. In this case, to expand the display area several LED elements are arranged and positioned in different directions to allow the display of an image element. With this arrangement, the viewing angle can be effectively expanded.

[080] Figures 13- (a) to - (d) illustrate the third configuration, in which various one-dimensional display apparatuses are arranged in the depth direction for a three-dimensional display.

In the event that three one-dimensional apparatuses are arranged and the moving member moves from right to left in the drawings, as shown in Figure 13- (a), the display apparatuses shown in Figure 13- (a) they move relatively to the right and are viewed by the observer standing on the moving limb as three planes containing depth, as shown in Figure 13- (b). As an example, a background is shown in the bottommost plane (c), a product or person is shown in the background (b), and a mark or article to be especially emphasized is shown in the front plane (a) as shown. in Figure 13- (c). As a result, there is an admirable announcement, showing depth, as shown in Figure 13- (d).

Figures 14- (a) to (d) show the fourth configuration, in which one-dimensional display apparatus is arranged in the direction of advancement of the moving member. In the event that the moving member moves from right to left in the drawings, as shown in Figure 14- (a), if the space between two adjacent one-dimensional display apparatuses is properly established, a long and continuous display of 1, 2, 3, ... as shown in Figure 14- (b) or a discontinuous frame-by-frame display as shown in Figure 14- (c) can be obtained. For example, when the speed of the moving limb is 16.7 m / s and the display time is 1/30 s, a continuous display can be obtained if the display apparatus is arranged at approximately 56 cm intervals. Of course, when a discontinuous frame-by-frame display, as shown in Figure 14- (c), is obtained, it is not necessary to arrange the display apparatus as close together as mentioned above.

Additionally, a method by which overlapping sections, as shown in Figure 14- (d), are formed as a function of eye movement can be adopted, and a method in which various display apparatuses are arranged to suit the moving limb speed change and the display apparatus is switched based on the detected velocity data.

[084] The fifth embodiment of the present invention will now be described.

[085] The entire structure of this configuration is similar to the first configuration shown in Figure 1, but in the present configuration, in the display zone, a large number of display element columns are arranged to form a display matrix section. .

[086] Referring to Figure 15, N (N = 1, 2, ...) display element columns 33, 36 .... 39 are arranged in the display zone and N drivers 32, 35 ... 38 and N flip-flop circuits (hereinafter "F / F") 31, 34, 37 are connected to the corresponding display element columns.A shift register 30 for receiving serial data from the data format zone is connected to the first stage F / F 31.

[087] The function will now be described by reference to Figures 16- (a) to - (c) [088] To simplify the illustration, the case in which a two-dimensional display plane is obtained is described. For example, in the case of an image plane composed of (L x M) display elements, as shown in Figure 16- (a), assuming the length-width ratio is 1/1 if the interval between elements in L display elements for d (mm), the display range in M elements will be d. Assuming that the observer's speed of passage is v (m / s), the time interval t0 of the display interval is expressed by the formula t0 = v / d. Hereinafter, this t0 will be called “unit time”.

[089] In the above-mentioned scan display apparatus the display data is refreshed at intervals t0 and, by the residual image effect on the eyes, an image display plane of (L x M) display elements can be obtained. In the present configuration, in each display apparatus column containing a number (N) of display element columns, as in the previous configurations, the displayed data is refreshed at intervals t0 and by feeding the display data in the adjacent columns of display elements. At interval display t0, the display time of a column's data becomes N times and the brightness level increases.

More specifically, in the case where the observer shifts left at a velocity v (m / s), as shown in Figure 16- (b), the fixed display apparatus is viewed by the observer as if he were moving clockwise at a speed of v (m / s). Referring to Figure 16- (c), the data displayed in the nth column at time t is the data a and at time (t + t0), after unit time has elapsed, new display data b is displayed in the nth column and data a is displayed in the (n + 1) -th column. As the observer moves through the d-element interval during this period, it seems to the observer that data a is displayed in one position twice as long as in the conventional apparatus. Then the display data is transferred to adjacent columns in succession and therefore a display time N times longer than the display time in the conventional technique can be achieved and the brightness level can be substantially increased.

Of course, N can be determined according to the desired brightness level and, needless to say, N can be determined independently of the number M of pixels in the lateral direction.

[092] Operation in the display zone in the present configuration will now be described. Single column DDTA data read from offset register 30 by DSCK offset clock, adjusted according to the moving member's movement speed, is stored in the F / F 31 by the DLCK enable clock generated at each unit time. to, and display element column 33 is triggered by display driver 32 to display DDAT data. F / F 31 data from a previous time is placed in F / F 34 and is displayed on the display element of column 36 via driver 36. Referring to Figure 16 (c), the display data to in the nth column at time t are displayed as data in column- (n + 1) -th in time- (t + t0). Similarly, data placed on the Nth F / F 37 is displayed by the column 39 display element by driver 38. As mentioned earlier, when data from one column is passed to the adjacent column, the data a appear to be stationary because the passenger in the moving limb travels the same distance as the space between the columns of display elements. Consequently, the data may be displayed for a time N times longer than the display time for a display column.

[093] A data transfer time chart is shown in Figure 17. We now assume that the display starts with column 1 of the DDTA display data and the preceding data is zero. DDTA data transferred to offset register 30 by DSCK offset clock is placed on F / F 31 by enable DLCK clock, but at time ti only display element column 33 displays data from column 1 but the display disappears in other display elements because zero data is placed in the F / F. At time t2, data from column 1 is placed on F / F 34 and data from column 2 is placed on F / F 31. Therefore, data from column 2 is displayed on display element column 33 and data from column 1 are displayed in display element column 34. Similarly, at time t3 column 3 data is displayed in column 1 display element, column 2 data is displayed in column 2 display element and data from column 1 is displayed in the display element of column 3.

[094] Figure 18 is a block diagram illustrating another display zone configuration.

[095] Some common ICs make up a shift register and a flip flop. If a sweet-potato vein-like structure is adopted that includes said shift registers, the amount of line cabling can be reduced and expansion can easily be achieved. By feeding the offset register 500 output directly into the adjacent column offset register 504, the distance between adjacent columns is expanded by adopting the same circuit structure on the respective columns. If the DLCK enable clock is interrupted as necessary, a series of display arrays acts as an apparatus displaying a stationary image. Accordingly, the apparatus may be used as a display device for guiding and escaping passengers in an emergency, for example in the event of an accident.

[096] At previous settings, the display apparatus is fixed. However, display can also be performed even if the display apparatus is mobile. Such a display apparatus configuration will now be described.

[097] Referring to Figure 19, a rotatable mobile display section 62 is projected from a pedestal 61 and an array of display elements 63 is connected to the mobile display section 62. The array arrangement direction of the display element 63 is parallel to the axial direction of a rotation axis 64 and the display plane becomes a cylindrical plane per rotation.

[098] The internal structure of the pedestal is shown in Figure 20. The movable section of the display 62 is supported by the rotation axis 64 and the rotation axis 64 is supported on the pedestal 61 by a bearing 65. A tensioned pulley 66 is connected to the rotation shaft 64 and a belt 69 is placed between the drive pulley 66 and a handler pulley 68 connected to the motor shaft 67 attached to the pedestal 61. A rotary connector 70 is connected to the rotation shaft 64 so that electrical power is supplied. supplied to the mobile display part 62 from the pedestal. A reflective type encoder disc 71 is connected above the pedestal 61 and a coding sensor 72, which includes a reflective optical sensor, is connected below the movable rotatable part. The encoder sensor 72 is comprised of a Z 72a sensor that only generates the starting point output and an A 72B sensor that outputs the angle of rotation. The coding disk pattern 71 corresponds to that of the coding sensor 72. A light insulation cover covering the coding disk is placed at the bottom of the mobile display section.

[099] Figure 21 shows the circuit diagram of the present configuration. Electricity supplied from the power supply terminals by the actuation of a SW power switch powers the tractor motor circuit 74 and a power circuit 75. The tractor motor circuit 74 is connected to motor 67. A control circuit of display 76 is connected to ROM 77 for storing display data, a shift register 78 and a circuit 81 for encoder signal waveform processing. The parallel output of offset register 78 is placed in a latch circuit 79 and the output of latch circuit 79 is sent to a driver 80. The driver 80 output is connected to display element array 63. Encoder sensor 72 is connected to circuit 81 for encoder signal waveform processing.

[100] The operation of this circuit will now be described.

[101] When the SW power switch is closed, motor 67 rotates to rotate the mobile display 62 through the handler pulley 68, the belt 69, the tensioned pulley 66 and the rotation axis 64 and a signal is generated by the encoding sensor. 72. When a Z 72A sensor start point detection signal is placed on the RESET pin of the display control circuit 76, the ROM address hand on the display control circuit 76 indicates the first column of data to display. When an A 72B sensor rotation angle signal is fed, data from the first column from ROM 77, which stores the data to be displayed, is fed and sent to shift register 78. When feeding data from a column completed, display control circuit 76 advances the address of a column and outputs a hold signal to latch circuit 79 to output offset register 78 as latch output. One-dimensional data corresponding to the latch output is displayed in the display elements. This duty cycle is repeated each time the sensor A 72B rotation angle signal from coding sensor 72 is received and therefore the data to be displayed is exchanged instantaneously according to the rotation position to cause a display. Two-dimensional.

[102] Display position deviation is prevented by a rotary encoder corresponding to the rotation position and the display is performed at exactly the predetermined position. When a pulse motor is used as a motor, position deviation may be prevented by generating a traction motor drive pulse in sync with the data display time, even if the encoder is not used. In addition, a method by which the motor rotates at constant speed can be adopted and a display time signal is produced by dividing the clock. The electrical connection between the rotary section and the fixed section is made on pedestal 61 by the rotary connector, as shown in Figure 19. This method has the advantage that electrical power is supplied only through two contacts. In this case, even the display control circuit 76, ROM 77, encoder signal waveform processing circuit 81, shift register 78, latch circuit 79, and driver 80 must be placed in the moving section, But the circuit mentioned above, which uses semiconductor technique, has very low weight and small size and in practice this can be done.

[103] In the present configuration, display data can be exchanged only by replacing ROM 77, which stores the data to be displayed. Additionally, the above mentioned ROM may be replaced by a rechargeable ROM or RAM, such as an EEPROM, and the data may be reloaded by an external device. After a given time from the scan point, subsequent displays may be made. Alternatively, the display section can be rotated continuously. The image plane output data times initiated by the Z 72A signal start trigger are set in the same manner as the times of Figure 9, illustrated earlier with respect to the first configuration. Therefore, the explanation of this output has been omitted.

[104] If this display apparatus is used, a peculiar impression may be given by an optical letter or image floating in space, and the effect of an advertisement that attracts the attention of passersby is increased. Additionally, the region beyond the display can be viewed through the display, so a product or similar can be placed beyond the display and an image can be composed. This is another characteristic advantage of the present invention.

[105] Still another configuration is illustrated in Figure 22.

[106] In this configuration, the movable portion of the display is constructed such that the movable display section 62 rotates about the horizontal axis of the pedestal 61 and the display plane has a disc shape. In this configuration, the letters and images to be displayed are from the polar coordinate system. The circuit structure is substantially the same as the previous configurations and the explanation has been omitted. However, since the speed of movement between the center and the periphery is different, to maintain the same brightness of the display between the periphery and the center, it is necessary to change the brightness between the display elements.

[107] Figure 23 shows another configuration in which the movable section of the rod-shaped display 62 is projected from pedestal 61 and moves laterally. In this case, the display plane has a tetragonal shape (rectangular shape or parallelogram shape).

[108] Figure 24 is a diagram illustrating the movable structure of the movable section of display 62 of the configuration shown in Figure 23.

[109] A slide shaft 91 is fixed inside the pedestal 61 and a slide portion (not shown) is connected to the slide axis 91 and the movable section of the display 62 is connected to the slide portion. A pair of gears 92 to be pulled by a main tractor (not shown) is installed inside the pedestal 61 and a chain 93 connects the gears 62. One of the connecting pins 94 of the chain 93 is designed and inserted into a groove formed in the part lower section of display section 62 to pull display section section 62. The illustrated movable mechanism is an example only and other structures may be adopted.

[110] The circuit structure is substantially the same as the previous configurations. However, as a reciprocating motion is performed, it is not necessary to use a rotary connector. Also, it goes without saying that the display position detection encoder is a linear encoder.

[111] As is apparent from the foregoing description according to the present invention, by the relative movement of the (n-1) -dimensional display apparatus and the moving member for observation, the display of n-dimensional images is obtained by using the residual image effect of the eyes. Therefore, the displayed images can be recognized by an observer, even from a vehicle that moves at high speed without having to move its neck. Accordingly, even in a position in which the conventional display apparatus cannot be installed because the space between the wall surface and the observer is too narrow, for example in a subway or tunnel installation, the display apparatus of the present invention. can be installed. In addition, the display of an optional size image may be achieved according to the movement speed of the moving member and the data switching speed for displaying the image. Moreover, as the number of display elements can be drastically reduced, installation space can be reduced and the present invention is economically advantageous.

[112] What's more, in the structure in which the display apparatus is movable, the letters or images displayed are seen floating in space and a peculiar impression is given to bystanders, and an enhanced propaganda effect attracts their attention. Additionally, as the area beyond the display can be viewed through the display, if a product or something similar is placed beyond the display, a composite display can be obtained. And in this case also the number of display elements and the space for installation can be reduced.

Industrial Application [113] As is apparent from the above description, the method and n-dimensional scanning display apparatus of the present invention can be installed even in a subway or tunnel where the conventional display system cannot be installed and therefore A highly practical effect can be achieved as an ad display apparatus or similar application.
