A flexible display device and an electronic device, applied to the technical field of display, are provided and aim at solving the technical problem in the related art that a driving IC is prone to rupture and/or breakage following bending of a flexible display panel. The flexible display device may include a flexible display panel, a flexible circuit board, and a driving IC. The flexible circuit board may include a body portion including an element arrangement region and a reserved region, and a connecting portion protruding from the reserved region and extending toward the flexible display panel, and is connected to the flexible display panel. A separation space is defined among the body portion, the connecting portion, and the flexible display panel. The driving IC is electrically installed in the element arrangement region.

A flexible display is disclosed. In one aspect, the display includes at least one first pattern including a plurality of display elements configured to display an image and extending in a first direction. The display device also includes at least one second pattern extending in a second direction and overlapping at least a portion of the first pattern. The second pattern has a curved shape in the first direction and the second direction crosses the first direction. The first and second patterns form at least one cavity region defining a space therebetween and the first and second patterns form a mesh structure.

A display device is provided, the display device includes a first display portion, a second display portion not in a same plane with the first display portion, and a side display portion connected between the first display portion and the second display portion, a brightness of the second display portion is less than a brightness of the first display portion and a brightness of the side display portion.

A display apparatus is disclosed that includes a display panel and a controller. The display panel includes a first edge extending in a first direction, a second edge extending in a second direction that intersects the first direction, and a display area where an image is displayed. The controller is configured to obtain information to bend the display panel and, in response, to bend the display panel to a bent display panel. In the bent display panel, the first edge has a first display-panel curvature and the second edge has a second display-panel curvature.

Foldable displays may have portions folded into a folded configuration. Each folded portion may be observed by a user at a different viewing angle. As such, folding-artifacts may appear in the displayed image as a result of the different viewing angles. For example, a perceptible color difference and/or a perceptible brightness difference may appear between folded portions. Disclosed here are systems and methods to create compensated images that when displayed reduced the folding artifacts. The creation may include sensing a viewing angle for each portion and determining adjustments for pixels in each portion using a display model. The display model may be created by measuring color and brightness of pixels for various folded configurations, view-points and/or viewing angles.

Disclosed are an image display device and a method of controlling an image display device. The image display device includes a motion detection unit for detecting a motion of a user and provides a welcome feedback to the user in the form of a visual signal, an audio signal, or both according to whether the motion of the user is detected or not, thereby drawing attention of the user or switching a display state to reduce power consumption of the image display device. The image display device determines a motion exception event that is not regarded a user motion on the basis of an overall change or a local change in pixel value between image frames, thereby preventing the display panel from being activated by a non-human-related factor such as a sudden change in illuminance or a movement of a periodically operating object.

This electronic device may comprise: a flexible display; a first rolling actuator configured to extend the flexible display in a first direction; a second rolling actuator configured to extend the flexible display in a second direction opposite to the first direction; and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to: determine the mounting state of the electronic device; acquire information about the position of a peripheral device, which is linked with the electronic device, based on the mounting state satisfying a designated condition; set the extension direction of the flexible display on the basis of the information about the position of the peripheral device; and control the first rolling actuator and/or the second rolling actuator to extend the flexible display in the first direction and/or the second direction on the basis of the set extension direction.

An electronic device including a flexible display panel is provided. The electronic device includes a display panel, a first component, a movable module, and a housing. The housing includes a first movable portion, a second component, and a third component. The third component includes a first space where the first component is stored. The display panel includes a flexible display portion. The display portion includes a first region, a second region, and a third region. The first region is fixed to the second component. The second region is fixed to the first component stored in the third component. The movable module has a function of holding a first angle that is formed between the second component and the third component by the first movable portion. The third region positioned between the first region and the second region has a function of forming a curved surface according to the first angle. The first component slides in the first space according to the first angle.

An electronic device according to various embodiments may include: a housing including a first housing, a second housing, and a third housing; a first hinge configured to enable the first housing and the third housing to pivot, and a second portion configured to enable the second housing and the third housing to pivot; a first display viewable through a first area of the first housing, a second area of the second housing, and a third area of the third housing; at least one sensor; a processor operably connected to the first display and the at least one sensor; and a memory operably connected to the processor, wherein the memory may store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to control the electronic device to: display a first screen of an application in a first state in which the first area and the second area face the third area, detect, through the at least one sensor, a change from the first state to a second state in which the first area and the third area face a same direction or a third state in which the second area and the third area face a same direction, determine a second screen of the application to be displayed through the first display in a state, among the second state and the third state, changed from the first state, and display the second screen through the first display in the changed state.

A display device includes a pixel array disposed in a display area, a connection pad disposed in a pad area, and a transfer wiring electrically connected to the connection pad to transfer a signal to the pixel array. The pixel array includes a light-emitting element including a first electrode including a multi-layered structure including a metal layer and a metal oxide layer, an organic light-emitting layer disposed on the first electrode, and a second electrode disposed on the organic light-emitting layer. The connection pad includes an upper pad conductive layer having a single-layered structure including a metal oxide.
