Electronic device having bended display and method for controlling the same
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.
Display device and operating method thereof
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.
Electronic Devices and Corresponding Methods Utilizing Ultra-Wideband Communication Signals for User Interface Enhancement
One or more processors of an electronic device detect a communication device electronically in communication with a content presentation companion device operating as a primary display for the electronic device and including a first ultra-wideband component. The one or more processors determine, with a second ultra-wide component carried by the electronic device, a distance between the electronic device and the content presentation companion device using an ultra-wideband ranging process. The one or more processors then dynamically enhance a user interface of the content presentation companion device as a function of the distance between the electronic device and the content presentation companion device. The enhancing adjusts a user interface feature being presented on the content presentation companion device.
Notification Handling based on Identity and Physical Presence
Techniques for notification handling based on identity and physical presence are described and may be implemented to determine whether to route a notification from a first device (e.g., a mobile device) to a second device (e.g., a display device) for output at the second device. Generally, the described implementations utilize sensor data captured at a physical location to detect and/or identify persons present at the physical location and to determine whether to route notifications between devices based on the detected persons/identities.
Electronic devices with sidewall displays
Electronic devices may be provided that contain flexible displays that are bent to form displays on multiple surfaces of the devices. Bent flexible displays may be bent to form front side displays and edge displays. Edge displays may be separated from front side displays or from other edge displays using patterned housing members, printed or painted masks, or by selectively activating and inactivating display pixels associated with the flexible display. Edge displays may alternately function as virtual buttons, virtual switches, or informational displays that are supplemental to front side displays. Virtual buttons may include transparent button members, lenses, haptic feedback components, audio feedback components, or other components for providing feedback to a user when virtual buttons are activated.
DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD AND APPARATUS
A display control method includes: obtaining, by a terminal, orientations and display statuses of a first screen and a second screen; determining, by the terminal, whether a trigger event used for adjusting the display statuses of the first screen and the second screen occurs; and when the trigger event occurs, displaying, by the terminal, adjusted display content on the first screen and the second screen based on the orientations and the display statuses of the first screen and the second screen. By obtaining an orientation and a display status of a terminal screen, when the trigger event occurs, the terminal can adjust the display status of the screen in a timely manner, so that a user can perform an interaction operation and interaction display between different screens.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING MULTIPLE DISPLAYS AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a camera module, a first display, a second display, and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to display a first screen and a second screen for displaying at least one function of a camera application on the first display facing in a first direction and the second display facing in a second direction opposite to the first direction, respectively, wherein at least one of the first screen or the second screen includes an image obtained through the camera module, identify a first input for selecting a first function of the camera application through the first screen, identify a second input related to a subject's gaze or gesture in a state in which the first function of the camera application is selected through the first screen, and display, on the second screen, in a state in which the first function of the camera application is selected through the first screen, an indication indicating that selection of the first function by the second input related to the subject's gaze or gesture is restricted.
Message Display Method and Electronic Device
A message display method and an electronic device related to the fields of human-computer interaction, foldable displays, and the like. The electronic device includes a foldable display. The foldable display includes a first region, a second region, and a third region. When the electronic device is in a folded form, the second region is bent. The message display method includes displaying a first interface of a first application in the first region; receiving a first message of a second application; displaying the first message in the first region; detecting a first flipping action; and displaying the first message in the second region.
Portable electronic device
A portable electronic device includes a base, a first display pivotally connected to the base, a second display, and a linkage mechanism. The first display is movable to be opened or closed relative to the base. The second display is located between the base and the first display. The linkage mechanism includes at least one first link. Two ends of the first link are pivotally connected to the first display and the second display, respectively. When the first display is opened relative to the base, the at least one first link rotates to drive the second display to move up relative to the base. When the first display is closed relative to the base, the at least one first link rotates in an opposite direction to drive the second display to move down to be accommodated between the first display and the base.
Instruction color book painting for dual-screen devices
A dual-screen computing device includes two separate displays that are coupled to an interconnecting hinge. A hinge detector detects movement or position of the hinge, and the positions of the displays may be determined based on the hinge movement or position. The positions of the displays relative to each other may then be used to determine which mode of operation the dual-screen computing device is operating (e.g., tent mode, open, closed, etc.). Additionally, the dual-screen computing device may include various sensors that detect different environmental, orientation, location, and device-specific information. Applications are configured to operate differently based on the mode of operation and, optionally, the sensor data detected by the sensors.
