Abstract
Discrete flexible pixel elements are hermetically sealed from the environment and comprise unitary, self-contained replaceable modules which enable efficient, economical production of large scale, free-form electronic displays, signs and lighting effects for outdoor use. The method and means for producing hermetically sealed discrete flexible pixel elements include encapsulation means, exterior casement means, and cable connector means.
Claims1
A system, comprising:
- a. a means for hermetic sealing of pixel element electronics embodied within discrete flexible pixel elements, including an encapsulation means and an external casement means;
- and,
- b. a connection means for connecting power and signal cables conjoining a plurality of discrete flexible pixel elements in series-connection, wherein electrical conductors and terminal contacts embodied within said power and signal cables are similarly protected.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
