Disclosed is a laptop having dual monitors that are arranged vertically, the laptop comprising: a main monitor 210 having a vertical width of a first size; a body 220 having, on one side thereof, a first hinge unit 221 formed so as to fold the main monitor 210, and a keyboard 222 spaced from the first hinge unit 221 so as to be arranged on the lower end of an upper plate; and a folder-type sub monitor 230 which has a vertical width of a second size that is relatively smaller than the vertical width of the first size, and which is adjacent to the keyboard 222 so as to ascend at a certain inclined angle on the basis of a second hinge unit 231 formed on the upper end of the upper plate of the body 220, and thus the present invention divides a screen so that different UIs may be respectively provided through the main monitor 210 and the sub monitor 230.

A device may include a display portion that includes a display housing and a display at least partially within the display housing. The device may also include a base portion pivotally coupled to the display portion and including a bottom case, a top case coupled to the bottom case and defining an array of raised key regions, and a sensing system below the top case and configured to detect an input applied to a raised key region of the array of raised key regions.

A wireless charging apparatus which includes: an accommodation structure and a first charging control circuit. The accommodation structure includes an accommodation cavity and a first wireless charging coil, where the first wireless charging coil can be arranged around the accommodation cavity. In addition, the first wireless charging coil generate an alternating current magnetic field. The accommodation cavity is configured to accommodate a stylus, and a second wireless charging coil is arranged in the stylus. When the stylus is accommodated in the accommodation cavity, the second wireless charging coil is also accommodated in the first wireless charging coil. In this case, the second wireless charging coil can induce an alternating current magnetic field generated by the first wireless charging coil in a plurality of directions, to be coupled to the first wireless charging coil.

According to an embodiment, a mousepad comprises a cover layer and an integrated keypad. The cover layer has a lateral extension and an upper surface which is usable for placement (placing, putting down) of a computer mouse. The keypad covers a part of said lateral extension. In an area not covered by the keypad there is a mouse parking area. The mousepad comprises a mouse detector associated with the mouse parking area and a corresponding control unit. The control unit is configured such that the keyboard gets activated when the mouse is inside the mouse parking area and gets deactivated when the mouse is outside the mouse parking area.

The disclosure provides a keyboard including a bottom plate, a key unit and a shielding layer. The bottom plate includes a through hole. The key unit is disposed on the bottom plate. The shielding layer covering a portion of the bottom plate includes a main part and an extension part extending from the main part toward the through hole. The shielding layer is provided with a black surface, and an orthographic projection of the key unit on the shielding layer overlaps the black surface.

A configurable, force-sensitive input structure for an electronic device is disclosed. The input structure has a metal contact layer, a sense layer positioned below the metal contact layer, and a drive layer capacitively coupled to the sense layer. The input structure may also have a compliant layer positioned between and coupled to the sense layer and the drive layer, a rigid base layer positioned below the drive layer, and a set of supports positioned between the metal contact layer and the rigid base layer.

An electronic apparatus that comprises at least a repositioning mechanism wherein at least one of said repositioning mechanisms alternately repositions for use and disuse at least an input device such that user can transition from using at least one of said input devices to using at least another one of said input devices even while both palms remain continuously engaged to their locations.

A split keyboard is disclosed that has wrist support members that are pivotally attached to the front of key array sections and thumb cluster sections that are pivotally attached to the key array sections on a transitional side that extends in diagonal direction from a front side of the key array section to a lateral side of the key array section.

A sensing module, and a Graphical User Interface (GUI) control apparatus and method are provided. The sensing module may be inserted into an input device, for example a keyboard, a mouse, a remote controller, and the like, and may sense a hovering movement of a hand of a user within a sensing area, and thus it is possible to provide an interface to control a wider variety of GUIs, and possible to prevent a display from being covered.

The invention relates to the controlling of functions of an information and communication system in a vehicle by means of physical keys. A control unit for an information and communication system of a vehicle is equipped for receiving a sequence of sensor signals of different proximity sensors of corresponding different mechanical function keys, to which corresponding first functions are assigned. The control unit is further equipped for detecting a swiping event over the mechanical function keys, wherein a swiping event comprises the fact that the sequence of sensor signals corresponds to the sensor signals of proximity sensors of corresponding adjacent mechanical function keys. The control unit is further equipped for assigning corresponding second functions to the mechanical function keys when a swiping event is detected.
