Method for transmitting control instructions to a plurality of receivers and receiver adapted to receive a light pixel carrying the control instructions
Control instructions are transmitted to receivers by modulating light sources to generate light beams that are modulated with digital data streams for inducing control instructions in the light beams. Each light beam is applied to a pixel shaper element of a pixel shaper assembly to produce a light pixel, each light pixel carrying the control instructions of the light beam, each light pixel having a perimeter defined by the pixel shaper element. The pixel shaper assembly combines the light pixels into an image without significant overlap or voids between the light pixels emitted by the pixel shaper assembly. The light pixels are directed toward a projector lens for transmission toward the receivers. In a receiver, an optical receiver detects a light pixel. A controller decodes the control instructions received in the detected light pixel and uses the control instructions to control a function of the receiver.

A device comprises an enclosure having a rear opening adapted to receive a light beam from a light source, a front opening adapted to emit a modified light beam, and internal walls extending between the rear opening and the front opening. The light beam is modified according to a perimeter of the front opening. A light shaping assembly comprises a two- dimensional array formed of a plurality of such devices, each one of the plurality of devices being adapted to receive a light beam from a corresponding light source.

METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING CONTROL INSTRUCTIONS TO A PLURALITY OF RECEIVERS AND RECEIVER ADAPTED TO RECEIVE A LIGHT PIXEL CARRYING THE CONTROL INSTRUCTIONS
Control instructions are transmitted to receivers by modulating light sources to generate light beams that are modulated with digital data streams for inducing control instructions in the light beams. Each light beam is applied to a pixel shaper element of a pixel shaper assembly to produce a light pixel, each light pixel carrying the control instructions of the light beam, each light pixel having a perimeter defined by the pixel shaper element. The pixel shaper assembly combines the light pixels into an image without significant overlap or voids between the light pixels. The light pixels are directed toward a projector lens for transmission toward the receivers. In a receiver, an optical receiver detects a light pixel. A controller decodes the control instructions received in the detected light pixel and uses the control instructions to control a function of the receiver.

A bracket assembly and method for supporting portable element on a structure element using a bracket assembly are disclosed. The bracket assembly includes a cylindrical body, a holding bracket, a groove element including a body defining a groove shaped for conforming to and receiving a first portion of the structure element, a main bracket including a central portion, and a first leg element and a second leg element including grasping end sections for grasping a second portion of the structure element, the main bracket and the holding bracket being configured to cooperate so as to collaboratively form an open-ended channel, and an elongated wedge-shaped element selectively moving in the open-ended channel, when the elongated wedge-shaped element is slidably moved from a first position to a second position, a clamping force applied by the bracket assembly on the structure element is increased.
