Dynamic face mask with configurable electronic display

Abstract

A method and a device are disclosed including a face mask with a display configured to show downloaded images. The mask may include a display controller to convert a format of an image to a mask-format to allow display on the irregular shaped and possibly segmented display areas of the mask, and also perform other image processing and display functions such as pixel mapping and separate image coordination. The display controller may break up a single image into multiple sub-images to display on multiple display areas on the mask. One or more cameras may be deployed on the mask to acquire images, such as a facial image of someone else and display it on the mask, in effect, acting like an electronic mirror. The images displayed on the mask may be downloaded and controlled from an app on a mobile device such as a smartphone.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
