A near-field communication (NFC) antenna structure for radiation enhancement of a computing device that includes a ferrite sheet, separated into two sections. The NFC antenna structure may be used to improve (i) the magnetic field strength generated by an NFC antenna and (ii) inductive coupling to a receiving antenna of another computing device. A first ferrite section may be placed on a first side of the NFC antenna to at least partially overlap the NFC antenna, and a second ferrite section may be placed on a second side (opposite the first side) to at least partially overlap the NFC antenna. The first ferrite section may be positioned towards a top end that is often positioned closest to a receiving device, as held by a user when performing a contactless communication of the computing device, to increase the magnetic field strength and improve the inductive coupling at the top end.

According to various embodiments, an electronic device may include: a housing, a plurality of cameras disposed on a surface of the housing, a light source disposed adjacent to at least one of the plurality of cameras on the surface of the housing, and a camera cover disposed on the housing, wherein the camera cover is disposed to cover at least a portion of the plurality of cameras and/or the light source. The camera cover may include a first light emitting area corresponding to the light source and configured to emit a part of light emitted from the light source to the outside, a first incident area corresponding to a first camera among the plurality of cameras and configured to allow and/or guide external light to be incident on the first camera, and at least one second light emitting area positioned closer to the first incident area than the first light emitting area, wherein the at least one second light emitting area is configured to emit another part of the light emitted from the light source to the outside.

A modular ruggedized protective case for a mobile communications device is disclosed. In embodiments, the protective case includes a flexible (e.g., rubberized) primary housing partially enclosing the mobile device and itself partially surrounded or enclosed by a rigid secondary housing. The secondary housing includes port protectors for concealing or shielding connector ports (e.g., USB, HDMI, AC, other like power/data inputs) of the mobile device. The protective case includes an adapter for a type cover keyboard, e.g., capable of partially covering the display surface of the mobile device when closed and serving as a keyboard or other input device when opened; the type cover adapter attached to a connection port and provides for transmission of control input from the type cover to the mobile device when the mobile device is enclosed in the protective case.

Provided is a printing device that performs printing using a recording material, the printing device including: an capacitive touch panel; a home operation portion including a mechanical key for transitioning from a screen displayed on the capacitive touch panel to a basic screen including information on a remaining amount of the recording material; and a power supply operation portion including a mechanical key for shifting a power state of the printing device, in which the home operation portion is closer to the capacitive touch panel than the power supply operation portion.

Device orientation techniques and systems are described to modify visual characteristics of edits that support the ability of a computing device to modify visual characteristics of digital objects appearing in a user interface of a mobile device based on orientation of the computing device, itself. A user interaction, for instance, is detected in a user interface of a device. Responsive to the detected user interaction, a multiaxial orientation of the device is determined. In some examples, the orientation is translated into tilt data such as in the form of altitude and azimuth values. A relative amount is calculated based on the orientation. The relative amount is applied to a visual characteristic of an edit to a digital object. Once the relative amount is applied, the digital object having the relative amount applied is displayed in the user interface.

A stand device includes a base block, a first stand plate, a second stand plate, a third stand plate, a first hinge device that connects the first stand plate to the base block, a second hinge device that connects the first stand plate and the second stand plate, a third hinge device that connects the second stand plate and the third stand plate, and a fourth hinge device that connects the third stand plate to the base block. The stand device is configured so that the rotation axis of the third hinge device is located on an extension of the rotation axis of the first hinge device and the rotation axis of the fourth hinge device is located on an extension of the rotation axis of the second hinge device.

A functional assembly and an electronic device including the functional assembly are provided. The functional assembly includes a functional module, a motor, and a linking mechanism. The functional module has a first shaft. The motor has a second shaft and is configured to drive the second shaft to rotate. The linking mechanism is connected with the first shaft and the second shaft such that the first shaft and the second shaft are linking-up with each other. As a result, the thickness of the electronic device near the frame is not limited by the size of the motor, which further reduces the thickness of the electronic device.

Electronic equipment includes a pressed body as either a housing or a display, a pressure-sensitive sensor, a support configured to support the pressure-sensitive sensor such that the pressure-sensitive sensor is opposed to the pressed body, and a filler provided between the pressed body and the pressure-sensitive sensor. The filler has a thickness that changes with distance between the pressed body and the pressure-sensitive sensor.

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.
