Abstract
The present invention comprises a novel device with the combined functionality of (1) a piece of furniture and (2) a volumetric light display system, depending on its mode. The third key component of the invention is an actuation system, allowing the invention to change its functionality between that of a piece of furniture and that of a volumetric light display system, achieved by physically moving the device or a portion of the device through space. Such an actuation system is comprised of any number of controllers and powered actuators or actuation subsystems to enable the device to change between a furniture mode and a volumetric light display system mode.
Claims5
1:
- What is claimed is a device consisting of a furniture subsystem, a volumetric light display subsystem, and an actuation subsystem.
Dependent claim number 1:
- Such a device has two modes of function:
- (1) furniture mode, and (2) volumetric light display mode.
Dependent claim number 2:
- The actuation subsystem transforms the device between these two modes and involves physically moving the device or a portion of the device through space.
Dependent claim number 3:
- The ability of the device to transform from furniture mode to volumetric light display mode is novel to this device.
Dependent claim number 4:
- Transforming the device between furniture mode and volumetric light display mode is non-obvious.
