以下、図面を参照しながら本発明の好適な実施の形態について説明する。 Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

図1において本発明によるデジタルサイネージ装置1は、その前面にディスプレイ2を備え、このディスプレイ2に映像が表示される。 In FIG. 1, the digital signage device 1 according to the present invention is provided with a display 2 in front of the digital signage device 1, and an image is displayed on the display 2.

図2に拡大して示すようにディスプレイ2は、その前面に発光画素として多数のLED3を所定間隔でマトリックス状に配置して構成される。 As shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 2, the display 2 is configured by arranging a large number of LEDs 3 as light emitting pixels in a matrix at predetermined intervals in front of the display 2.

ここでディスプレイ2は、縦・数十個×横・数十個のLED3を数mm間隔で配置してなる数十cm角のディスプレイパネル2Aを1つのユニットとし、これを縦横に多数並設して大型のデジタルサイネージ装置1を構成するものであり、所定の入力経路を介して入力される映像信号に従って夫々のLED3が点灯して、ディスプレイ2に全体としての映像を表示する。 Here, the display 2 has a display panel 2A of several tens of cm square, which is composed of several tens of vertical / several tens of × horizontal / several tens of LEDs arranged at intervals of several mm, as one unit, and a large number of these are arranged side by side in the vertical and horizontal directions. It constitutes a large-scale digital signage device 1, and each LED 3 is turned on according to a video signal input via a predetermined input path, and a video as a whole is displayed on the display 2.

そして本発明によるデジタルサイネージ装置1にあっては、ディスプレイパネル2AにおけるLED3とLED3の隙間部分に、撮像手段としてのカメラ4を組み込んである。 In the digital signage device 1 according to the present invention, the camera 4 as an image pickup means is incorporated in the gap between the LEDs 3 and the LEDs 3 in the display panel 2A.

カメラ4は超小型のCCDカメラやCMOSカメラが用いられ、その本体部をディスプレイパネル2A内に埋め込み、レンズ部をディスプレイパネル2Aの表面に表出させるように組み込まれており、このカメラ4からの映像信号は、所定の出力経路を介して外部に出力されるようになっている。 An ultra-small CCD camera or CMOS camera is used as the camera 4, and the main body thereof is embedded in the display panel 2A and the lens portion is incorporated so as to be exposed on the surface of the display panel 2A. The video signal is output to the outside via a predetermined output path.

またこのカメラ4は、レンズ部に広角や望遠の機能を備え、さらには撮影方向を上下左右に自由にコントロールできる機能を有し、これらの機能は所定の入力経路を介して外部から入力されるコントロール信号によって動作されるものとする。 Further, this camera 4 has a wide-angle and telephoto function in the lens portion, and further has a function of freely controlling the shooting direction up, down, left and right, and these functions are input from the outside via a predetermined input path. It shall be operated by the control signal.

ここでカメラ4は、これを囲む四方のLED3と等間隔となる位置、即ち四方のLED3の中心に位置して組み込まれる。こうすることにより、LED3とLED3の間の限られたスペースに効率的にカメラ4を配置して組み込むことができる。 Here, the camera 4 is incorporated at a position at equal intervals from the four LEDs 3 surrounding the camera 4, that is, at the center of the four LEDs 3. By doing so, the camera 4 can be efficiently arranged and incorporated in the limited space between the LEDs 3 and the LED 3.

さらに本発明によるデジタルサイネージ装置1においては、カメラ4の近傍に並設して、音声捕捉手段としてのマイクロホン5が組み込まれている。この場合マイクロホン5は、カメラ4と同様に、ディスプレイパネル2AにおけるLED3とLED3の隙間部分に組み込まれる。 Further, in the digital signage device 1 according to the present invention, a microphone 5 as a voice capturing means is incorporated in parallel in the vicinity of the camera 4. In this case, the microphone 5 is incorporated in the gap between the LEDs 3 and the LED 3 in the display panel 2A, similarly to the camera 4.

マイクロホン5は超小型の高感度マイクロホンが用いられ、その本体部をディスプレイパネル2A内に埋め込み、受音部をディスプレイパネル2Aの表面に表出させるように組み込まれており、このマイクロホン5からの音声信号は、所定の出力経路を介して外部に出力されるようになっている。 As the microphone 5, an ultra-small high-sensitivity microphone is used, and the main body thereof is embedded in the display panel 2A and the sound receiving portion is incorporated so as to be exposed on the surface of the display panel 2A. The signal is output to the outside via a predetermined output path.

ここでカメラ4と同様にマイクロホン5は、これを囲む四方のLED3と等間隔となる位置、即ち四方のLED3の中心に位置して組み込まれる。こうすることにより、LED3とLED3の間の限られたスペースに効率的にマイクロホン5を配置して組み込むことができる。 Here, similarly to the camera 4, the microphone 5 is incorporated at a position at equal intervals from the four LEDs 3 surrounding the camera 4, that is, at the center of the four LEDs 3. By doing so, the microphone 5 can be efficiently arranged and incorporated in the limited space between the LEDs 3 and the LED 3.

なお、上述したようにディスプレイ2は多数のディスプレイパネル2Aを縦横に並設して構成されるものであるが、この構成においてカメラ4とマイクロホン5は全てのディスプレイパネル2Aに組み込まれる必要はなく、少なくとも1つのディスプレイパネル2Aに組み込まれていればよい。また、必要に応じてカメラ4とマイクロホン5を複数個所のディスプレイパネル2Aに組み込んでもよい。 As described above, the display 2 is configured by arranging a large number of display panels 2A vertically and horizontally, but in this configuration, the camera 4 and the microphone 5 do not need to be incorporated in all the display panels 2A. It may be incorporated in at least one display panel 2A. Further, the camera 4 and the microphone 5 may be incorporated into the display panels 2A at a plurality of places as needed.

以上のように構成される本例のデジタルサイネージ装置1は、例えばオフィスでのリモート会議に好適に用いることができる。即ち、本例のデジタルサイネージ装置1をオフィスの壁一面に設置することで、あたかも同じ部屋にいるかのようなリモート会議が可能となり、ここではディスプレイ2、カメラ4及びマイクロホン5を通じて、双方(ディスプレイの向こう側とこちら側)のコミュニケーションがスムーズに運ぶことになる。 The digital signage device 1 of this example configured as described above can be suitably used for, for example, a remote conference in an office. That is, by installing the digital signage device 1 of this example on the entire wall of the office, it is possible to have a remote conference as if they were in the same room. Here, both (of the display) through the display 2, the camera 4, and the microphone 5. Communication between the other side and this side) will be carried smoothly.

この場合、特に本発明によるデジタルサイネージ装置1では、ディスプレイ2にカメラ4及びマイクロホン5が一体に組み込まれているので、リモート会議での使用時にはカメラ及びマイクロホンを別に用意する必要がなく、またカメラ及びマイクロホン用の余分な配線やスタンドも不要となるので、準備に手間を要することなく簡単にリモート会議での使用が可能となる。 In this case, particularly in the digital signage device 1 according to the present invention, since the camera 4 and the microphone 5 are integrally incorporated in the display 2, it is not necessary to separately prepare the camera and the microphone when using in a remote conference, and the camera and the microphone Since no extra wiring or stand for the microphone is required, it can be easily used in remote conferences without the need for preparation.

さらに本発明によるデジタルサイネージ装置は、リモート会議に限ることなくそれ以外の用途にも効果的に使用することができ、例えばこのデジタルサイネージ装置を屋外に設置することにより、ディスプレイの表示と同時に通行人や街の様子などを収録することもできる。 Further, the digital signage device according to the present invention can be effectively used not only for remote conferences but also for other purposes. For example, by installing this digital signage device outdoors, a passerby can be displayed at the same time as the display. It is also possible to record the state of the city and the city.

また、本発明によるデジタルサイネージ装置は、これを照明機器として使用することもできる。この場合はLEDの光が当たる場所をカメラを通して明瞭に確認でき、モデルや被写体のチェックが容易に可能となる。 Further, the digital signage device according to the present invention can also be used as a lighting device. In this case, the place where the LED light hits can be clearly confirmed through the camera, and the model and the subject can be easily checked.

なお、以上の実施の形態においては、ディスプレイにおける発光画素としてLEDを例示したが、他にも例えば有機ELや高輝度LCDなど、電気的に発光する画素であればLEDに限定されるものではない。 In the above embodiment, the LED is exemplified as the light emitting pixel in the display, but the pixel is not limited to the LED as long as it is a pixel that emits electricity electrically, for example, an organic EL or a high-brightness LCD. ..
