Abstract
A focused sound and infotainment system is provided along a continuous path. A moving staircase, escalator or walkway, is also provided for transporting persons, living things and/or objects, with which said focused sound and infotainment system is provided. A method is also disclosed for providing audio-visual information along a continuous path, particularly intended for and directed to people, living things, and/or objects being on the path and possible moving there along.
Claims30
An audio-visual system to be provided along a continuous path, the audio-visual system comprising:
- a directional sound system, a display system, and a sensor system,
- wherein said display system comprises a continuous LED display comprising a plurality of LED tiles,
- wherein said audio-visual system is configured to
- receive data detected by the sensor system for recognizing a person, living thing or object in an area surrounding part of the audio-visual system;
- generate a sound control signal for emitting sound by means of the directional sound system, which is connected with the sensor system, towards said person, living thing or object being recognized;
- generate an image control signal for displaying an image on part of the display system, which is connected with the sensor system, in the area of said person, living thing or object being recognized;
- and
- transmit said sound and image control signals to said sound and display system respectively;
- and
- display an image by the display system such that the image displayed is directed towards said person, living thing or object as said person, living thing or object, and the image displayed moves along said continuous path such that the image displayed moves across the plurality of LED tiles together with said person, living thing or object along the audio-visual system along said continuous path continuously and simultaneously at a pace of said person, living thing or object, and
- wherein said display system further comprises one or more filters for adapting a viewing angle of the image shown, and
- wherein said one or more filters are configured to adapt the viewing angle based on the amount of persons, living things or objects amongst said plurality thereof being recognized.

- and
- transmitting said sound and image control signals to said sound and display system respectively;
- displaying an image by the display system such that the image displayed is directed towards said person, living thing or object as said person, living thing or object, and the image displayed moves along said continuous path such that the image displayed moves across the plurality of LED tiles together with said person, living thing or object along the audio-visual system along said continuous path continuously and simultaneously at a pace of said person, living thing or object;
- and
- providing one or more filters, wherein the one or more filters adapt a viewing angle of the image shown,
- wherein said one or more filters are configured to adapt the viewing angle based on the amount of persons, living things or objects amongst said plurality thereof being recognized.

A hardware storage device having stored thereon computer executable instructions which, when executed by one or more processors of a computer system of an audio-visual system that comprises a directional sound system, a display system, and a sensor system, said display system comprising a continuous LED display comprising a plurality of LED tiles, configure the audio-visual system to perform the following for providing audio-visual information along a continuous path:
- receive data detected by the sensor system for recognizing a person, living thing or object in an area surrounding part of the audio-visual system;
- generate a sound control signal for emitting sound by means of the directional sound system, connected with the sensor system, towards said person, living thing or object being recognized;
- generate an image control signal for displaying an image on part of the display system, connected with the sensor system, in the area of said person, living thing or object being recognized;
- and
- transmit said sound and image control signals to said sound and display system respectively;
- display an image by the display system such that the image displayed is directed towards said person, living thing or object as said person, living thing or object, and the image displayed moves along said continuous path such that the image displayed moves across the plurality of LED tiles together with said person, living thing or object along the audio-visual system along said continuous path continuously and simultaneously at a pace of said person, living thing or object, and
- wherein said display system further comprises one or more filters that adapt the viewing angle of the image shown, and
- wherein said one or more filters are configured to adapt the viewing angle based on the amount of persons, living things or objects amongst said plurality thereof being recognized.
