Abstract
The subject matter of the invention is a zone for the interactive presentation of an object comprising a user interface, a processing unit and a robotic arm. A user chooses a command by means of the user interface. The latter will transmit the chosen command to the processing unit. Said processing unit will make the chosen command correspond to a predetermined sequence stored in its storage memory. The processing unit will next cause a robotic arm to execute said sequence. Said robotic arm will execute said sequence, the consequence of which will be the initiation of a demonstration of the object displayed.
Claims21
A display system comprising at least an object to be displayed and a display device comprising:
- a display cabinet for receiving said object to be displayed, the display cabinet defining a barrier to prevent physical contact between a user and said object;
- a user interface configured so as to receive a command;
- said command initiating an interaction with said object to be displayed,
- wherein the said display device comprises a robotic arm configured to interact physically with said object to be displayed;
- a processing unit in communication with the user interface configured to control a movement of the robotic arm in at least one predefined sequence of physical interaction with the object to be displayed, said at least one predefined sequence being dependent on the command;
- wherein said object to be displayed is an electronic appliance, and
- wherein the user interface comprises at least one display configured to display a graphical code for scanning by a portable appliance to enable transmission of at least one command to the display device by the portable device.
A method for displaying an object, comprising:
- reception of an object to be displayed in a display cabinet, the display cabinet defining a barrier to prevent physical contact with said object;
- displaying a graphical code;
- scanning said graphical code by a portable appliance;
- displaying at least a plurality of commands on said portable appliance;
- selecting one of the plurality of commands and transmitting the command to the user interface;
- reception of a command at a user interface;
- initiation of an interaction between a robotic arm and said object to be displayed on reception of the command,
- wherein said object to be displayed is an electronic appliance and in that the method comprises:
- transmission of the command to a processing unit;
- determination of at least a predefined physical interaction sequence associated with the command;
- control of the robotic arm configured so as to interact physically with said object to be displayed in accordance with the predefined physical interaction sequence.
