A flexible display of a flexible display device can be divided and have removable sections for use as one or more wearable devices. The flexible display can be divided into a plurality of portions. The plurality of portions are divided along a plurality of dividing lines each having a locking mechanism, respectively. A power supply is electrically connected to the locking mechanisms to activate and deactivate the locking mechanisms. A portion of the plurality of portions border corresponding locking mechanisms along corresponding dividing lines of the plurality of dividing lines. The portion is selectable for decoupling and removal, in response to deactivation of the corresponding locking mechanisms for the portion of the flexible display.

According to various embodiments of the disclosure, an electronic device includes a first housing including a first side member that surrounds a first inner space, a second housing including a second side member that surrounds a second inner space, and a display, at least a portion of which is folded, the display disposed in a space provided by the first housing and the second housing. At least one of the first side member and the second side member includes a plurality of conductive areas spaced apart from each other, at least one non-conductive area disposed between the plurality of conductive areas to bond the plurality of conductive areas, and at least one bridge member that at least partially surrounded by the at least one non-conductive area and connects at least two of the plurality of conductive areas.

A method and system for applying materials to an electronic device may include generating an electromagnetic (EM) map of the device. The EM map may indicate locations of EM radiation emitted from the electronic device. The method may also include generating a thermal map of the electronic device that may indicate locations of thermal energy emitted from the device. The method may also include generating a shielding map from the EM thermal maps. The shielding map may include instructions to control a shielding apparatus, including locations on the electronic device to apply an EM shielding material and a thermal material. The method may also include controlling a shielding apparatus to apply the EM shielding material and thermal material to the electronic device, according to the shielding map. The EM shielding material and thermal material may be applied to varying depths on the electronic device.

An electronic device is provided and includes a housing, and a display module disposed on a front surface of the housing and including a display panel, a conductive pattern, and a digitizer panel disposed under the display panel; a digitizer circuit connected to the digitizer panel; and a processor electrically connected to the display module and the digitizer circuit. The digitizer circuit may be configured to recognize a first signal generated as the first cover of a cover device including a cover coil approaches the digitizer panel; and recognize a second signal generated as a pen input device approaches the digitizer panel. The processor may be configured to control the display module in response to recognition of the first signal and the second signal.

A protective cover for a tablet computer includes a main body, a peripheral device and a protective cover signal transmission member. The main body includes a first supporting member and a second supporting member connected to each other and can be opened and closed relative to each other. The peripheral device is disposed on the first supporting member. The protective cover signal transmission member is disposed on the second supporting member and electrically connected with the peripheral device. The second supporting member supports the tablet computer. The tablet computer includes a computer signal transmission member. The protective cover signal transmission member is used to dock with the computer signal transmission member to perform signal transmission. One of the computer signal transmission member and the protective cover signal transmission member is an electrical block, and the other is an electrical guide rail. A portable electronic device is also provided.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing having an opening, a roll installed in the housing, a flexible display configured to be wound on the roll and to be withdrawn from the housing through the opening in accordance with a rotating direction of the roll. The electronic device further includes moveable housing parts and a housing guide configured to guide and retract at least one part of the housing as space within the housing becomes available due to withdrawal of the flexible display, so that a height, width and/or overall size of the housing is reduced when the flexible display is withdrawn through the opening and extended outside of the housing.

The disclosure provides textured glass components as well as electronic device cover assemblies and enclosures which include the textured glass components. In some cases, a protruding portion of the glass component includes a textured region provided over a camera assembly of the electronic device. One or more openings may be provided in the textured region. The textured region may be configured to provide a translucent or hazy appearance to the electronic device while providing a desirable “feel” to the electronic device and level of cleanability.

A bezel for overhead panels provides a grip or hand rest so the pilot is not required to maintain a hand at a specific overhead location in space to interactive with a touchscreen display device. Gripping mechanisms take the strain off the arm and allow for more precise inputs during turbulence. In a further aspect, the bezel includes features at known locations to tactilely identify the location. Such features may include indentations or protrusions.

A wireless anti-static device is disclosed, including an electronic sensing circuit that measures the polarity and electrostatic potential of the subject relative to its surroundings. Ion guns of positive and negative polarities are able to transfer an arbitrary quantity and polarity of charge from the subject by ejecting ionized air molecules into the surrounding environment. A control unit is programmed to trigger the appropriate ion gun when a corresponding charge is measured on the body, in order to continually maintain the net charge on the body below a desired threshold. The subject is thus effectively grounded relative to its environment without requiring physical tethers to ground.

A display device includes a display panel including a first non-folding region, a second non-folding region, and a folding region between the first and second non-folding regions, and a lower member below the display panel. The lower member includes a support layer below the display panel and including a first support part which overlaps the first non-folding region, a second support part which overlaps the second non-folding region, and a folding part which overlaps the folding region, where openings are defined in the folding part, a digitizer below the support layer and corresponding to the first and support parts, a cover layer between the support layer and the digitizer and attached below the folding part, and a lower adhesion layer between the support layer and the digitizer. The lower adhesion layer is between the first and second support parts.
