Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of conference equipment technology, specifically an interactive electronic nameplate device for conference venues. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most table signs (seat signs) in meeting venues are made by printing the guest's name on A4 paper and placing it in a holder. There are also cases where A4 coated paper is used for color printing and folding.
[0003] In practice, these types of name tags often encounter problems such as misprinted names or changes in guest names during the meeting, leading to chaos for meeting organizers. Furthermore, if meeting guests and hosts need complete information on the meeting, guest introductions, and schedule, they must prepare paper materials in advance. There is no integrated device that can display names on both sides, adjust guest names in real time, provide instant access to meeting information, and simultaneously collect voice and photo information. To address these issues, an interactive electronic name tag device is proposed. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to enable dual-sided display and real-time updating of guest names, storage of electronic materials such as meeting information, guest introductions, schedules, and meeting materials, real-time viewing of meeting materials, and simultaneous collection and transmission of guest voice and avatar information.
[0005] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows: an interactive electronic table sign, comprising five parts: a housing, an interface, a display screen, a battery pack, and a main controller.
[0006] The housing houses the display screen, main controller, and battery pack, and provides space for functional interfaces. The housing consists of three parts: the main body, the left seal, and the right seal. The main body has cutouts for the main and secondary displays, as well as microphone and camera cutouts; the left seal has an air inlet and a DC port; the right seal has an exhaust vent, a power indicator, a USB port, and a button port. The bottom plate of the right seal houses the main controller and connects to the left seal to house the battery pack.
[0007] The interfaces include: a cooling fan, a power indicator light, a power button, a USB module, a microphone, a camera, and a DC connector.
[0008] The display screen consists of a main screen and a secondary screen. The main screen faces the guests, displays their names to indicate their seats, and has touch functionality, allowing guests to view relevant meeting information in real time. The secondary screen faces the audience, displaying the guests' names in a graphic format to identify the guests currently seated.
[0009] The battery pack consists of lithium batteries to power the main controller and display screen, and can be charged or supplied to external devices via a DC connector.
[0010] The main controller is a microcontroller device powered by a built-in battery pack. It connects to a display screen, microphone, and camera, and features a large-capacity storage unit, a WIFI module, and USB expansion capabilities. It also supports SSH connection, wireless control, and system updates.
[0011] The main controller can automatically receive meeting information from external control terminals, control the display of guest names, respond to the display of electronic meeting materials, mark electronic table number, execute control commands (receive, change, mark, clear, close, and provide status feedback, etc.), and collect and transmit audio and video information.
[0012] Compared with existing bracket table signs and printed folding table signs, the advantages and positive effects of this invention are as follows: 1. Guest information can be displayed on a screen, allowing for real-time updates and rich visual representations; 2. By storing meeting information and supporting touch functionality, meeting materials can be viewed at any time; 3. By integrating a microphone, camera, and WinFI module, it can simultaneously collect and transmit audio and video information; 4. By receiving control commands from an external terminal, it can play video files on the display screen; 5. The electronic device can be reused an unlimited number of times during its lifespan.
