Abstract

An electronic floor display system (100) has an alerting feature (105, 205) to encourage persons standing near or on the floor display system to look down and observe its display. The display system comprises a housing having an outer shell (110) and a transparent or translucent cover (115), enclosing and/or supporting components including a controller (120); plural sensing devices (103); plural alerting devices (105, 205); and one or more electronic display devices (117).

Claims (22)

1. A floor display system comprising:
an electronic display device; and an alerting device to generate an alert in response to the detecting of a person.
2. The floor display system of claim 1, further comprising:
a housing for the electronic display device;
wherein the alerting device is to generate an alert in response to the detecting of a person standing on the housing.
3. The floor display system of claim 1, wherein the alert comprises a vibration.
4. The floor display system of claim 1, wherein the alert comprises a light.
5. The floor display system of claim 1, wherein the alert comprises a sound.
6. The floor display system of claim 2, wherein the detecting is based on a pressure on the housing for a predetermined period of time.
7. The floor display system of claim 2, wherein the detecting is based on a change in light intensity on the housing for a predetermined period of time.
8. The floor display system of claim 1, wherein the alert is periodic.
9. The floor display system of claim 1, wherein the alert is continuous.
10. The floor display system of claim 1, wherein the alert is variable in intensity.
11. The floor display system of claim 1, wherein a duration of the alert is variable.
12. The floor display system of claim 2, further comprising a sensing device to register a physical effect associated with a person standing on the housing.
13. The floor display system of claim 2, further comprising a controller to determine whether a person is standing on the housing based on input from the sensing device.
14. The floor display system of claim 12, wherein the sensing device senses pressure.
15. The floor display system of claim 12, wherein the sensing device senses light.
16. The floor display system of claim 2, wherein the alerting device comprises an actuator to generate vibration.
17. The floor display system of claim 1, wherein the alerting device generates a visual stimulus.
18. The floor display system of claim 1, wherein the alerting device generates an aural stimulus.
19. The floor display system of claim 16, wherein the actuator includes a piezoelectric actuator.
20. The floor display system of claim 17, wherein the alerting device includes a light-emitting diode.
21. The floor display system of claim 17, wherein the alerting device generates a strobe signal.
22. The floor display system of claim 1, wherein the electronic display device includes at least one of a liquid crystal display, electric paper, electronic ink, a light-emitting polymer, an organic light-emitting diode, a micro-encapsulated component, and a pixel.
