Virtual reality set for a video game console, presented in a box for retail sale, consisting of a head-mount display (virtual reality headset), a processing unit, a stereo headphone with earpieces, connecting cables (HDMI, USB and virtual headset), an AC adaptor and a power cord. The virtual reality headset, which resembles goggles, incorporates sensors, video display module (it can display two side-by-side images) and two magnifying lenses allowing the user to see a stereoscopic view of the screen of the video display module. The processor unit is designed to synchronise the virtual reality headset and the video game console (it delivers the video signal from the console to the headset and the detected signal from the headset to the console).

VR Headset - # 2
Virtual reality headset (VR headset) designed to be connected to and used with a specific type of mobile phone. In the common housing resembling goggles, the product incorporates the following main components : - an internal Central Processing Unit (CPU); - a pair of convex lenses to magnify the image of mobile phone’s screen; - a focus wheel to adjust the position of magnifying lenses; - a key to control the volume of a mobile phone; - two micro-USB connectors to connect external power source and the mobile phone; - an accelerometer sensor and a gyro sensor for tracking the movement of user’s head; - a proximity sensor to switch on/off mobile phone’s screen; - a touch pad to control a mobile phone. The product is equipped with a flap holder for placing the mobile phone and holding it by its screen directly in front of the user’s eyes. When a specific application is installed on the mobile phone and the mobile phone is connected to the headset, the built-in magnifying lenses allow the user to see a stereoscopic view of the mobile phone screen, which displays two, almost the same, side-by-side images. In addition, it also allows to control running of the application on the mobile phone by detecting the movements of the user’s head (tilting and turning) in real time and transmitting the information, over the CPU of the headset, to the main board of the mobile phone. The touch pad and control keys of the headset can also be used to control the use of certain other functions (such as volume, etc.) of the mobile phone.

Remote-controlled four-rotor helicopter, also called “quadcopter”, with an integrated digital camera, 5.8 GHz remote controller, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi range extender and “smartphone” mount. The helicopter is controlled via levers on the supplied remote control. The remote control comes equipped with a mount for a “smartphone” so the operator can use the phone screen to view “streaming” video images via Wi-Fi signal. The operator can take both videos (1080p HD) and still images (14 MP). The operator uses a separate program (“app”) from the manufacturer to control the camera via the smartphone. The range of the supplied Wi-Fi range extender is approximately 300 meters and flying time is approximately 25 minutes before the battery must be recharged.

“Hoverboards”
Self-balancing, electrically-powered, two-wheeled transportation device (commercially known as the “hoverboard”, “smart scooter” or “drift vehicle”), designed for carrying a single person, for use within low speed areas such as pavements (sidewalks), paths, and bicycle lanes. The maximal speed of the device is 10 km/h and maximum distance per charge is 15-20 km. Through the built-in gyroscope and acceleration sensors, the device uses the dynamic balance principle to control moving forward, backward, turning and stopping. It relies on the changes of the centre of the body gravity to measure the changes of the vehicle body posture, and uses the servo control system to drive the motor precisely to do the corresponding adjustment. When the human body stands on the device and bends forward, the system can sense it automatically and drive wheels to move forward to keep balance. When the gravity centre bends backward, the wheels will move backward, and in case of turning, it can slow down and control left, right foot to bend to front or back to make the gravity centre deflect to left for turning left, and to right for turning right, according to the self-turning requirements.

Flat panel display modules
What kind of signal the modules in questions can receive or accept ? For instance, can they accept a standard signal dealing with digital signals inside digital machines, such as so called “LVDS signals”, or can they accept also any other type of signal?
They are generally designed to reproduce only one or two types of digital signal → they do not operate with different digital signal. #1 : uses the SPI (Serial Peripheral
Interface) Bus; accepts and processes a touch signal
#2 and #3 : accept LVDS signals

What is the content of the signal accepted by the modules ? Is it only a video signal or does it have other components?
They usually accept not only the video signals, but also the relevant parameters (e.g., clock, brightness, operating voltage, etc.) via the built-in driver ICs. These parameters may be delivered through a separate path of signals or merged into video signal path. (Those incorporating a touch panel can also accept a touch signal – see #1 above)

Which components or functions are missing for the modules not to be considered unfinished monitors of heading 85.28 ?
Components : AD converter; power converter
[other devices representing the characteristics of the final products]
Funtions : can reproduce only signals of their own “native” resolution via pre-determined digital Interface
[not able to receive video signals of various resolution via standardized interface]

Are the modules able to display a video signal with the native resolution of the screen ?
If the native resolution of the screen is higher than that of the display module, the original video (input) signal is cut off matching the resolution of the display module. In order to solve this problem, the final apparatus (e.g., monitors) is equipped with components which can resize resolution of the input signal.

Aside from their housing, what are the differences between the modules in question and “monitors” or “display screens” that could be found in any laptop computer ?
Every monitor and display screen has a function of adjusting the input signal into its “native” resolution. But the display modules at issue do not have such functions and relevant components as presented.

What makes Product #2 specific for a tablet computer in comparison with Products #1 and #3 ?
The tablet computer producer defined the specification of display module #2 (e.g., outer dimensions, clock, brightness, operating voltage, level of durability, standards of interface, etc.) and the manufacturer of the display module designed the operating software and FPCB shape and features.
