20170337025 · 2017-11-23 ·

A dual display client apparatus includes a pair of display housings. When physically coupled together in a first mode of operation, the display housings may be arranged as a single portable electronic device such as a clamshell laptop. In this mode, the system is configured to share computing power and other resources among the two housings, providing a more powerful and robust device than when the housings are separated. Processor power and storage capacity may be aggregated in the unitary apparatus. Battery charging and power sharing may be enabled between the devices' power supplies. When decoupled, the separate display housings are configured to each operate as a self-sufficient, standalone computing device. In this mode of operation, applications and other software may be instantiated as shared instance or separate instances, giving the user of each device ultimate flexibility in device operation and content consumption.
