Abstract
The exemplary embodiments disclosed herein provide a light diffraction device positioned adjacent to a wall and comprising a laser and a diffractive imaging element. The diffractive imaging film having an image and positioned relative to the laser so as to create a projection of the image upon the wall. The diffractive film can also contain a series of images where the film is moved relative to the laser in order to create an animation effect upon the wall. In some embodiments, a distortion reflector may be positioned to accept the laser light exiting the diffractive imaging film and to distort the laser light to produce a desired image upon the wall. In some embodiments, additional reflectors may be used and in some further embodiments a distortion lens may be used.

A light diffraction device for positioning adjacent to a wall and comprising:
- a laser;
- and
- a diffractive imaging film having an image and positioned relative to the laser so as to create a projection of the image upon the wall when the device is positioned adjacent to a wall.
A light diffraction device for positioning adjacent to a wall having an electrical outlet, the device comprising:
- a housing;
- electrical prongs which extend from the housing and into the electrical outlet;
- a laser placed within the housing;
- drive circuitry placed within the housing and placed in electrical connection with the electrical prongs as well as the laser;
- and
- a diffractive imaging film having an image and positioned relative to the laser so as to create a projection of the image upon the wall when the device is positioned adjacent to a wall.
A light diffraction device for positioning adjacent to a wall having an electrical outlet, the device comprising:
- a housing having a first side which faces the wall and a second side which faces away from the wall;
- electrical prongs which extend from the first side of the housing and into the electrical outlet;
- a laser placed within the housing and oriented to direct light away from the second side of the housing;
- drive circuitry placed within the housing and placed in electrical connection with the electrical prongs as well as the laser;
- and
- a diffractive imaging film placed within a path of the light emitted by the laser.
