Abstract:

A dual functioning system for enabling a user to selectively monitor and entertain a subject comprises an entertainment system and a surveillance system. The entertainment system comprises a visual display, signal-delivering circuitry, signal-inputting hardware, and an extendable arm assembly. The arm assembly selectively positions the visual display for viewing by a target subject. The signal-inputting hardware enables the user to output stimuli upon the visual display via the signal-delivering circuitry. The visual display comprises at least one energy-passing aperture. The surveillance system comprises a camera assembly, data-transmitting circuitry, and monitoring hardware. The camera assembly is positioned adjacent a select energy-passing aperture for receiving and transmitting monitorial data input to the monitoring hardware via the select energy-passing aperture and the data-transmitting circuitry and, having a selectively colored lens light filter, also provides a color-camouflaged display to the subject.
