A computerized watch is described that includes a cover that forms an outer surface of the computerized watch, a screen configured to output graphical information for display, a set of physical watch hands positioned between the cover and the screen and configured to present a time of day. One or more computer processors and a memory comprising instructions. The instructions, when executed, cause the one or more computer processors to responsive to determining that the computerized watch is operating in a time display mode, manipulate the set of physical watch hands such that the set of physical watch hands present the time of day by obscuring a portion of a display region of the screen, and responsive to determining that the computerized watch is not operating in the time display mode, manipulate the set of physical watch hands such that the set of physical hands do not obscure the screen.

A timepiece includes a clock circuit, a signal receiver configured to receive signals including time information, a processor configured to control a changing operation of changing a current time measured by the clock circuit based on the time information obtained from the signal receiver and controls a presenting operation of whether or not the changing operation is successful. The processor controls the changing operation based on a first flag indicating whether or not the signal receiver successfully receives the time information. The processor controls the presenting operation based on a second flag indicating whether or not the changing operation is successful within a predetermined period of time.

A timepiece including a case; pivotably mounted display hands; a movement to drive the display hands while defining a sweeping surface; a display screen, a first part of the sweeping surface being superimposed on the screen and a second part of the sweeping surface not being superimposed on the screen; a control circuit configured to sequentially switch between first and second operating modes, with: a first operating mode wherein the display hands are driven in the first and second parts of the sweeping surface; a second operating mode wherein the display hands are driven only in the second part of the sweeping surface with display of a piece of information by the display screen.

Aspects of the technology provide a symbiotic graphical display on a client device such as a smartwatch. The system includes at least one emissive display element and at least one non-emissive display element. The display elements are arrayed in layers or other configurations such that content or other information is concurrently aligned across the respective display surfaces of the different elements. A first set of content is rendered using the non-emissive display element while a second set of content is rendered using the emissive display element. Depending on characteristics or features of a given content item, that item may be rendered by one or both of the display elements. Certain content may be transitioned from the emissive display element to the non-emissive display element according to a time threshold or other criteria.

An intelligent wearable product is provided which includes a housing, a power supply circuit, a functional component, and an electrochromic film. A transparent portion is disposed on the housing, and the functional component and the power supply circuit are located inside the housing. The functional component is configured to collect an external parameter by using the transparent portion. The electrochromic film is disposed on an inner surface of the housing and shields the transparent portion. The power supply circuit is configured to supply power to the electrochromic film and the functional component, so that the electrochromic film is transparent when the functional component works. When the intelligent wearable product is not worn on a human body, the electrochromic film and the housing jointly present an integrated visual effect. According to the application, quality, competitiveness and appearance experience of the intelligent wearable product are improved.

A computerized watch is described that includes a cover that forms an outer surface of the computerized watch, a screen configured to output graphical information for display, a set of physical watch hands positioned between the cover and the screen and configured to present a time of day. One or more computer processors and a memory comprising instructions. The instructions, when executed, cause the one or more computer processors to responsive to determining that the computerized watch is operating in a time display mode, manipulate the set of physical watch hands such that the set of physical watch hands present the time of day by obscuring a portion of a display region of the screen, and responsive to determining that the computerized watch is not operating in the time display mode, manipulate the set of physical watch hands such that the set of physical hands do not obscure the screen.

Proposed is a device associated with the Internet of Things (IoT) in the form of a wall clock having a clock face as a full-color LED display with a translucent cover. The clock enclosure contains a clock mechanism and a built-in speaker. The wall clock is connected to a Cloud server for displaying data from the Internet of Things devices, such as a time preset for specific events presented on the clock face. The display has a round shape with a special at-a-glance interface that allows reading of the information shown on a display at a glance and without interruptions from a current task. The Cloud algorithms analyze data scheduled to be delivered to the receiver and decide what information is to be displayed and when the information is to be displayed.

A display control method and a terminal device are provided. The display control method is applied to a terminal device having a transmissive liquid crystal display (LCD), and a backlight side of the transmissive LCD has a mechanical structure. The method includes detecting an operating status of the terminal device, turning off the transmissive LCD of the terminal device when the terminal device is in a standby state, and controlling the transmissive LCD to be in a transparent state to display the mechanical structure on the backlight side of the transmissive LCD. Hence, the method reduces power consumption of the terminal device and retains a watch function of displaying time by the terminal device.
