Abstract
Methods of sensing a fault in an electronic display may include receiving streaming data to be displayed, appending the streaming data with an animation instruction, displaying the streaming data via a screen, monitoring the animation via a photo-sensor, sensing an interruption in the animation via the photo-sensor, and signaling, in response to the sensing step, a fault in the electronic display. The displaying step may include producing, in response to the animation instruction, an animation in a dedicated area of the screen. In some examples, the sensing and signaling steps may be performed without programmable software.
