An electronic device having a bended display and a method for controlling the same. The electronic device includes a front display area and at least two separate side display areas that are physically connected with at least one side of the front display area and form a convex curved surface in at least one space between the front and the rear of the electronic device. The electronic device also includes and a non-display area that physically connects at least two side display areas of the at least two separate side display areas and forms a convex double curvature surface in at least another space between the front and the rear of the electronic device. The at least two physically connected side display areas may be bent in directions so that an acute angle, a right angle or an obtuse angle is formed.

A method for quickly invoking a small window while a video is being displayed in full screen, a graphic user interface, and a terminal are provided. The method may include: When a terminal displays a video playing interface in full screen, the terminal may display a small window in a hover box based on a user operation. A display interface of the small window may be switched. The terminal may further quickly switch between multi-window display and full-screen display based on a user operation. In this process, the terminal continuously plays the video. According to this method, the terminal can quickly switch between multi-window display and full-screen display while continuously playing a video.

A method in an electronic device comprises detecting, with one or more sensors, a geometry or geometric form factor defined by an amount a first device housing or first device housing portion of the electronic device is pivoted about a hinge or deformable portion relative to a second device housing or second device housing portion of the electronic device, as well as also detecting, with one or more other sensors, multiple persons within an environment of the electronic device. One or more processors then enable, in response to detecting the geometric form factor and the multiple persons within the environment, a dual content presentation mode of operation allowing presentation of first content on a first display of the electronic device and second content on a second display where the first content and the second content are different.

An information processing apparatus includes a display unit having a plurality of display areas, a touch sensor unit that detects a predetermined operation by an operation medium on one of the plurality of display areas and to detect a position of the operation medium during the predetermined operation, and a startup control unit that displays a menu of icons in the plurality of display areas upon the touch sensor unit sensing the predetermined operation, the menu of icons being different depending on a combination of an orientation of the display unit, and which of the plurality of display areas the predetermined operation occurred in. The startup control unit launches an application program corresponding to an icon selected by the operation medium from among the displayed icons in the menu.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a display device may include a display configured to display an image, a user input interface configured to receive a remote control input from a remote control, and a controller configured to receive a user input, obtain a type of the received user input, and change a display property according to the obtained type of the user input, wherein the type of the user input is one of a remote control input type or a touch input.

Computerized systems and methods are provided for automatically generating an application overflow tool that is dynamically updated and arranged to provide improved access to popular or recently used applications. These systems and methods improve existing technologies by generating an overflow panel different from a task bar, such that the overflow panel provides access to most recently used applications that are not on the task bar. As such, ease of access to applications is improved to increase user efficiency. These systems also improve the way computers operate by leveraging existing GUI layouts to reduce computing resource consumption, such as memory, network latency, I/O, and the like, that would otherwise be required improve access to applications.

A menu selection technique is based on orientation of a companion module used in a flexible load management (FLM) system. The FLM system includes a load center that utilizes circuit breakers in combination with companion modules (i.e., intelligent controllers). Each companion module has a graphical display as well as a push button included on a face of the module as an input device used to display and input information including icons, buttons, controls, messages, status, menus or other desired text on a user interface (UI) to enable a user to configure and operate the companion module. The companion module also includes an accelerometer configured to detect a gravitational orientation (i.e., a first orientation and an opposite or upside-down orientation) and movement of the module and, in response, generate a signal that is translated to a corresponding change in orientation of the information displayed on the UI, particularly when the companion module inserted into the load center.

An electronic device includes a first display unit, a communication unit configured to communicate with an external device including a second display unit, and a control unit configured to rotate an image to be displayed on the first display unit, in accordance with a rotational angle in a plane parallel to a screen of the first display unit, and rotate an image to be output to the external device, in accordance with the rotational angle of the first display unit and a rotational angle in a plane parallel to a screen of the second display unit.

An example user terminal apparatus includes communication circuitry configured to be connected to a home network comprising a plurality of devices; a display configured to display a UI screen for managing the home network; a sensor configured to sense a user manipulation of the UI screen; and processing circuitry configured to change the UI screen displayed on the display according to the user manipulation. The UI screen is one of a plurality of service pages that are changeable according to a user manipulation in a first direction, the plurality of service pages being pages for respectively providing different home network management services. At least one of the plurality of service pages comprises an area that is displayable on the display according to a user manipulation in a second direction.

An electronic apparatus comprising a processor and a memory storing a program which, when executed by the processor, causes the electronic apparatus to: acquire a plurality of images obtained from a plurality of different image sources; store information about relationship between an orientation of a display device and at least one of the plurality of images in a storage; detect an orientation of a display device; and control the display device to display an image obtained from a same image source, among the plurality of different image sources, as that of an image associated with the detected orientation.
