In one embodiment of the present invention, the system 15 includes a display unit 45 having a visual effect and bonded to the substrate 10. The visual effect of the
display unit 45 may include any combination of colors, images, patterns and/or text.
Preferably, the display unit 45 includes a plurality of pixels (picture elements) 25
formed into matrix and embedded on the substrate 10. A control circuit 30 is coupled
to the display unit 45 for configuration of the plurality of pixels 25. An input device,
such as remote control unit 20 including a transmitter, provides an activating signal
for activating the control circuit 30. A different visual effect for the display unit 45 is
selected using the remote control unit 20. The control circuit 30 is activated according to preprogrammed instructions corresponding to the selected different visual effect. In another embodiment, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, the input device 55 is
coupled to the control circuit 30 and includes one or more switches for selecting the
different visual effect and for providing the activating signal to the control circuit 30.
The control circuit 30 includes, for example, a receiver 35 for receiving the
activating signal wherein the control circuit 30 is activated. When the control circuit
30 is activated, the visual effect of the display unit 45 is changed to the selected
different visual effect according to preprogrammed instructions, wherein the visual effect of the substrate 10 to which the display unit 45 is affixed is also changed. A
power unit 40 provides power to the control circuit 30.
In a preferred embodiment, the plurality of pixels 25 are embedded on the
substrate 10 using a polymer. Examples of such a polymer include a silicon gel,
thermosetting polymer or a variety of polymers. A housing cavity 50, also including, for example, a thermosetting polymer, contains the control circuit 30 and the power
unit 40 in one embodiment, and the control circuit 30, the power unit 40 and the input
device 55 in the other embodiment wherein the housing cavity 50 is bonded to the
substrate 10 with the thermosetting polymer. However, the control circuit 30, the
power unit 40 and the input device 55 can be attached to the substrate 10 using any suitable and reliable means.
The display unit 45 and plurality of pixels 25 may include various shapes, as
shown on the shirts in Figures 1 A-l C, to provide different visual effects.
Alternatively, the plurality of pixels 25 may be embedded on the substrate so as to entirely cover the substrate or object. The system of the present invention may be used on a variety of substrates. The substrate 10 may include various objects worn by a user including any article of clothing or wearing apparel, such as shirts, skirts, pants, jackets or hats, or an article of footwear, such as sneakers or the shoe shown in Figure 2. The system of the present invention may be used as a form of artwork on objects including articles of furniture, such as the table shown in Figure 3, as a framed wall
hanging, such as is shown in Figure 4, or simply on the wall itself.
The flow chart of Figure 5 illustrates the method for changing the visual effect
of a substrate according to the present invention wherein a substrate is provided per block 95. At block 100 a display unit having a visual effect is bonded to the substrate.
Preferably, the display unit includes a plurality of pixels formed into a matrix, which
are embedding on the substrate using a thermosetting polymer per block 105. A
