Repeatably displaceable emanating element display

A system, comprising:

• a sensor operable to provide vehicle-related information based at least in part on sensing a condition relating to an operation of a vehicle or mobile device or its occupants;
• a projector comprising an array of projection elements, the projector coupled with a displaceable surface portion of the vehicle or mobile device, wherein the displaceable surface portion of the vehicle or mobile device is configured to move in a repeating motion such that each projection element of the array of projection elements moves in the repeating motion;
• and
• a timing mechanism configured to actuate at least a portion of the array of projection elements based on a corresponding position and velocity of each projection element, such that the projector projects an image based on the vehicle-related information from the at least a portion of the array of projection elements such that the projected image appears substantially stable relative to the repeating motion of the projection elements.

An apparatus, comprising:

• sensor means for deriving vehicle-related information based at least in part on quantifiably recording an operation of a vehicle or mobile device or its occupants;
• an array of projection means, the array of projection means coupled with a displaceable surface portion of the vehicle or mobile device, wherein the displaceable surface portion of the vehicle or mobile device is configured to move in a repeating motion such that each projection means of the array of projection means moves in the repeating motion;
• and
• timing means configured to actuate at least a portion of the array of projection means based on a corresponding position and velocity of each projection means,
• wherein, in operation, the array of projection means projects an image based on the vehicle-related information from the at least a portion of the array of projection means such that the projected image appears substantially stable relative to the repeating motion of the projection means.

A method, comprising:

• obtaining vehicle-related information associated with an operating parameter of a vehicle or mobile device, or its occupants;
• and
• projecting by an array of projection elements, in response to obtaining the vehicle-related information, an image based at least in part on the vehicle-related information, wherein the array of projection elements is coupled with a displaceable surface portion of a vehicle or mobile device, wherein the displaceable surface portion of the vehicle or mobile device is configured to move in a repeating motion such that each projection element of the array of projection elements moves in the repeating motion;
• and
• actuating at least a portion of the array of projection elements based on a corresponding position and velocity of each projection element such that the image projected from the at least a portion of the array of projection elements on to a non-displaceable portion of the vehicle or mobile device appears substantially stable relative to the repeating motion of the array of projection elements.
