An electronic device includes: a display panel configured to display an image; an input sensor on the display panel; and a sensor controller configured to detect a first input by at least one of a plurality of input devices through the input sensor, and wherein the sensor controller is configured to detect the first input during an input detection frame, wherein the input detection frame includes a search section in which a plurality of search signals are provided to the input sensor, and wherein the plurality of search signals include two or more search signals capable of communicating through two or more different protocols, respectively.

Systems and methods that provide audio feedback in response to gesture validity can provide a more intuitive interface that can train users to correctly complete gestures. Moreover, systems and methods that provide line-specific audio feedback can provide more specific feedback that can allow a user to better understand what sensing line is being contacted. The systems and methods can further include basing the audio feedback based at least in part on obtained activity data, such that invalid and valid feedbacks can provide different sounds dependent on the determined activity state.

A mobile terminal and a control method therefor are disclosed. The mobile terminal includes a body, a display coupled to the body to vary a display region viewed from a front of the body according to switching between an enlarged display mode and a reduced display mode, an input unit configured to sense user input, and a controller. The controller controls switching of the display to the enlarged display mode according to first input.

A method for operating an electronic device, the method including: displacing a rollable touchscreen to a first position along a first direction, a first side of the rollable touchscreen being mounted in a housing, the rollable touchscreen being configured to be rolled into or unrolled out of the housing along the first direction, detecting an active electrode at a first location on the rollable touchscreen, the active electrode being mounted in the housing, and determining the first position of the rollable touchscreen based on the first location, the first positing being indicative of a fractional amount of the rollable touchscreen outside the housing.

A display apparatus includes a substrate having a display area with a display device to display an image, and a non-display area around the display area. The non-display area has a bending area bent about a bending axis. An encapsulation layer is located over the display area. A touchscreen layer is located over the encapsulation layer and includes a touch electrode. A touch wire is connected to the touch electrode, and extends from an upper portion of the encapsulation layer, and at least partially into the bending area. A fan-out wire configured to apply an electric signal to the display area and is at least partially disposed in the bending area. The touch wire and the fan-out wire are on different layers from each other in the bending area.

A flexible touch screen panel includes a substrate having flexibility, sensing electrodes on at least one surface of the substrate, and implemented using an opaque conductive metal, and a polarizing plate on the substrate having the sensing electrodes formed thereon. The sensing electrodes may be implemented in a mesh shape having a plurality of openings.

A touch window may include a substrate, a sensing electrode disposed on the substrate to sense a position, and a protective layer on the sensing electrode. A touch device may include the touch window, and a driving part on the touch window. The substrate may include a first active area and a second active area. The second active area may be flexibly provided from the first active area. The sensing electrode may be provided on the substrate to sense a position. Moreover, the protective layer may be disposed in the second active area.

Disclosed herein are a display apparatus having an improved structure to satisfy flexibility and durability at the same time and a method of manufacturing the same. The display apparatus includes a display panel to display an image, and a window cover having a first portion disposed to be integrally bent with the display panel and positioned at an inside of a bending direction and a second portion positioned at an outside of the bending direction and having different stiffness from the first portion.

Functional jewelry is disclosed. A bracelet includes a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), a main control unit, and positional and situational sensors, typically including an accelerometer, as well as a decorative, interchangeable fascial layer. The bracelet may also include sensors such as capacitive touch sensors, a microphone, and a color sensor. A radio transceiver within the bracelet is adapted to implement a protocol such as BLUETOOTH® 4.0, and is adapted to allow the bracelet to communicate in peer-to-peer or master-slave mode. Two users can pair their bracelets in person, usually with a gestural trigger, for shared light displays, multi-player games, and other types of interactions. Larger groups can pair temporarily and contextually for multi-user displays and interactions, in an ad hoc network with distributed functions. Real-world interactions are communicated to a social network with profiles linked to the individual bracelets.

A display system has a flexible display screen which has a front side and a back side, and a plurality of haptic elements arranged in an array on the back side of the screen. The display system also has a controller board connected to the plurality of haptic elements and the flexible display screen. The controller board is configured to display a plurality of interactive buttons on the front side of the flexible display screen in locations corresponding to the plurality of haptic elements. The plurality of haptic elements are configured to provide haptic feedback based on touch input provided to the front side of the screen. The haptic feedback includes actuating a haptic element which corresponds to the location of an interactive button selected by the touch input.
