An example apparatus includes an onlooker detector and a security manager. The onlooker detector is to detect an onlooker based on depth sensor data collected by a depth sensor associated with a computing device. The security manager is to automatically invoke a security feature of a display of the computing device in response to detection of the onlooker by the onlooker detector.

The scaler chip may be configured to receive eye tracking data. The scaler chip may be configured to cause a display to present an image, where the image is based on the video data and the eye tracking data.

A trustzone graphic rendering method in an operating system (OS) divided into a normal world (NWD) and a secure world (SWD) corresponding to a trustzone. The trustzone graphic rendering method includes generating an image resource used to generate a trustzone user interface (UI) in the NWD, transmitting the image resource from the NWD to the SWD, and generating the trustzone UI in the SWD, by separating and editing the image resource including a plurality of objects, wherein the separating and editing is performed in units of objects.

A display backlight comprises an edge-lit lightguide having an array of light out-coupling structures to enable light to escape from the lightguide at the location of the light out-coupling structures. A light source arrangement is used for providing light into the lightguide at one or both of the opposite side edges. The light source arrangement is controllable to provide a selected one of at least first and second light outputs into the lightguide, the two light outputs having a different angle to the general plane of the lightguide and resulting in light which escapes from the lightguide with a different range of exit angles. In this way, a directional backlight output is enabled, based on the way light is coupled into a lightguide. This provides a simple structure only requiring control of the light provided to the lightguide. The backlight may for example enable an auto stereoscopic display to be formed without the need for a lenticular array.

A display method includes: processing a plurality of images to form base compositions; and presenting the base compositions with different images in a spatial arrangement which as a whole form a composite image viewable to a naked-eye viewer; wherein a subset of the plurality of images are selectively viewable as a modulated view to a user with an optical modulation device.

A method, system and computer program product for shielding objects from view are disclosed. In an embodiment, the method comprises detecting a specified presence around a given object; determining if the detected presence has authorization to view the given object; and when the detected presence does not have the authorization to view the given object, building a three dimensional holographic shielding image between the given object and the detected presence to shield the given object from the detected presence. In an embodiment, building the shielding image includes determining a position for the shielding image, and building the shielding image at the determined position. In an embodiment, a mobile communications device is used to build the holographic shielding image, and multiple cameras are installed in the mobile communications device to recognize placement of people in an area surrounding the given object.

A multi-screen display apparatus includes a first display screen, a second display screen and a prismatic structure optical element. The display area of the first display screen includes a first main display area, a first and second sub display areas. The display area of the second display screen includes a second main display area, a third and fourth sub display areas. The fourth sub display area is adjacent to the second sub display area. The first main display area displays the first part of the first image frame. The first and fourth sub display areas display the second part of the first image frame adjacent to the first part. The second main display area displays the first part of the second image frame. The second and third sub display areas display the second part of the second image frame adjacent to the first part. A display method is also provided.

A double-sided display device includes: a first display layer, configured to implement output of a display signal of a first side; and a second display layer, configured to implement output of a display signal of a second side; a conversion layer positioned between the first display layer and the second display layer, which switches between a light-transmitting state and an opaque light-shielding state. The conversion layer is in the light-shielding state during a display phase, and in the light-transmitting state during an interfering phase which follows the display phase. During the interfering phase, the first display layer is further configured to output a first interfering signal to interfere with the image displayed by the second side, and the second display layer is further configured to output a second interfering signal to interfere with the image displayed by the first side.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for brightness control for under-display fingerprint sensor are disclosed. A method includes receiving, at a computing device, an indication to activate an under-display sensor that is located underneath a display of the computing device; activating a collection of LEDs of the display to provide illumination for the under-display sensor, including activating an LED in the collection of LEDs by: establishing, by drive circuitry of the LED, a first overdriven voltage across an LED-driving transistor that is arranged to energize the LED; establishing a second overdriven voltage across the LED-driving transistor; and establishing a steady state voltage across the LED-driving transistor; and activating the under-display sensor by reading a signal from the under-display sensor once the collection of LEDs has activated, including once the steady state voltage has been programmed across the LED-driving transistor.

A smart mirror system includes a screen configured to generate a display for viewing by a user, a mirror positioned in front of the screen, a near-field-communication (NFC) card reader located behind the mirror, a network interface for communicating with a remote health data server, memory configured to store computer-executable instructions, and at least one processor configured to execute the computer-executable instructions. The computer-executable instructions include selectively detecting, by the NFC card reader, an NFC chip of a member card placed in proximity to the NFC card reader. The computer-executable instructions include, in response to detecting the NFC chip, obtaining member information from the detected NFC chip, and authenticating the user to the remote health data server, via the network interface, according, at least in part, to the obtained member information.
