Apparatus for Obscuring Non-Displaying Areas of Display Panels

Abstract

An apparatus include an optical device having dimensions suitable for overlaying at least a portion of a non-displaying area between adjacent display panels of a tiled group of display panels. The optical device further has a bottom for contacting the adjacent display panels, sides and a top. A plurality of optical elements are substantially disposed within the optical device where the plurality of optical elements are operable for directing light, emitted by the adjacent display panels, to the top to obscure the portion of the non-displaying area with the directed light. The apparatus further includes means for processing information to be displayed on the display panels to produce a substantially uniform and seamless display of information on the tiled group of display panels.
