Display camera system
A system can include a display assembly that includes a display, a display side, a back side and a frame, where the frame includes frame magnetic material and a frame electronic interface; and a camera assembly that includes a housing, a camera and a tilt mount, where the tilt mount includes mount magnetic material and a mount electronic interface that electronically mates with the frame electronic interface via a magnetic attraction force.
1. A system comprising:
a display assembly that comprises a display, a display side, a back side and a frame, wherein the frame comprises frame magnetic material and a frame electronic interface; and
a camera assembly that comprises a housing, a camera, a status light, and a tilt mount, wherein the tilt mount comprises mount magnetic material and a mount electronic interface that electronically mates with the frame electronic interface via a magnetic attraction force, and wherein the tilt mount locks to the frame via a tool-releasable anti-theft mechanism that comprises at least one retractable locking peg and at least one locking peg receptacle.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the tilt mount comprises a swivel mount.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the housing is rotatable about an axis of the swivel mount by at least 180 degrees to transition from facing the display side of the display to facing the back side of the display.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the tilt mount comprises the at least one retractable locking peg and wherein the frame comprises the at least one locking peg receptacle.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the frame electronic interface comprises a serial bus interface and wherein the mount electronic interface comprises a serial bus interface.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the frame electronic interface and the mount electronic interface comprises spring loaded electrical contacts and wherein the magnetic attraction force compresses one or more springs of the spring loaded electrical contacts.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the status light comprises a back side housing portion.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the camera assembly is externally cable-less.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the display is bezel-less.
10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the display assembly houses a processor and memory accessible to the processor.
11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the display assembly comprises a stand.
12. The system of claim 1 , where the frame electronic interface is a first frame electronic interface and comprising a second frame electronic interface, wherein the frame comprises a rectangular form factor that comprises a long edge and a short edge, wherein the first frame electronic interface is disposed on the long edge and wherein the second frame electronic interface is disposed on the short edge.
13. A camera assembly comprising:
a housing;
a camera disposed in the housing;
a status light;
a tilt mount, wherein the tilt mount comprises mount magnetic material and a mount electronic interface;
a microphone; and
a mechanical shutter, wherein the mechanical shutter comprises a front panel with an opening and a top panel with an extension that extends through a slot in a top surface of the housing, wherein, upon application of force to the extension, the mechanical shutter is movable between an open position and a closed position, wherein, in the closed position, an aperture of the camera is covered by a portion of the front panel.
14. The camera assembly of claim 13 , wherein the tilt mount comprises a swivel mount.
15. The camera assembly of claim 13 , wherein the tilt mount comprises an L-shaped coupling.
16. The camera assembly of claim 13 , wherein the mount electronic interface comprises a serial bus interface.
17. The camera assembly of claim 13 , wherein the mount electronic interface comprises spring loaded electrical contacts.
18. The camera assembly of claim 13 wherein the status light comprises a top side housing portion and a back side housing portion.
19. The camera assembly of claim 13 , wherein the camera assembly is externally cable-less.
20. A system comprising:
a display assembly that comprises a display, a display side, a back side and a frame, wherein the frame comprises frame magnetic material and a frame electronic interface; and
a camera assembly that comprises a housing, a camera, a status light, a microphone, a mechanical shutter, and a tilt mount, wherein the tilt mount comprises mount magnetic material and a mount electronic interface that electronically mates with the frame electronic interface via a magnetic attraction force, and wherein the mechanical shutter comprises a front panel with an opening and a top panel with an extension that extends through a slot in a top surface of the housing, wherein, upon application of force to the extension, the mechanical shutter is movable between an open position and a closed position, wherein, in the closed position, an aperture of the camera is covered by a portion of the front panel.
