Modular panel assembly for an enclosure

A modular panel assembly for an enclosure, the modular panel assembly comprising:

• a plurality of panels;
• a plurality of channel members;
• a plurality of brackets, wherein at least some of the brackets are configured to:
• couple two or more of the panels, and
• receive and hold an end portion of one or more of the plurality of channel members, and each of the plurality of brackets comprises a first plate and a second plate, wherein:
• an inner surface of the first plate is configured to be aligned with an inner surface of the second plate;
• each of the first plate and the second plate comprise:
• four sides of equal length,
• a raised step extending from the inner surface at each corner between adjacent sides, and a raised platform extending from the inner surface at a central portion of the respective first plate and second plate;
• the first plate further comprises a threaded post extending from the inner surface;
• the second plate further comprises a hole formed opposite the threaded post, and the hole is sized and configured to allow through passage of a screw for insertion into the threaded post;
• and
• at least one of a digital display, a digital touch interface, a digital writing interface, a voice recording device, or a panel configured to display a projected image.

A method of forming a modular panel assembly, the method comprising:

• providing a plurality of panels, wherein each panel has a first side surface and a second side surface;
• providing a plurality of channel members having at least one channel formed therein;
• coupling a channel member to at least one edge portion of each of the panels;
• arranging the plurality of panels into a desired pattern of adjacent panels;
• providing a plurality of brackets, and each of the plurality of brackets comprises a first plate and a second plate, wherein:
• an inner surface of the first plate is configured to be aligned with an inner surface of the second plate;
• each of the first plate and the second plate comprise:
• four sides of equal length,
• a raised step extending from the inner surface at each corner between adjacent sides, and a raised platform extending from the inner surface at a central portion of the respective first plate and second plate;
• the first plate further comprises a threaded post extending from the inner surface;
• the second plate further comprises a hole formed opposite the threaded post, and the hole is sized and configured to allow through passage of a screw for insertion into the threaded post;
• and
• clamping a bracket to the first side surface and the second side surface of two or more adjacent panels and to an end portion of one or more channel members.
