ELECTRONIC DEVICE ADJUSTING SOUND SIGNAL AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE ELECTRONIC DEVICE
According to an embodiment, an electronic device may comprise: a flexible display, at least one microphone, a sensor, a communication module comprising communication circuitry, and at least one processor operatively connected with the flexible display, the at least one microphone, the sensor, and the communication module. The at least one processor may be configured to: based on receiving a call signal from an external electronic device through the communication module, identify whether the call signal is a video call signal, based on the call signal being the video call signal, identify a folding state of the electronic device through the sensor, adjust a sound signal received through the at least one microphone based on the folding state, and control the communication module to transmit the adjusted sound signal to the external electronic device.
Photodetector activations
An example computing device includes a photodetector to measure an amount of light incident on a detection surface of the photodetector. The example computing device includes a state sensor to activate the photodetector responsive to the computing device being in a detection state. The example computing device also includes a processor. An example processor identifies, during the detection state, a user gesture based on an output of the photodetector. The user gesture blocks light incident on the detection surface of the photodetector. The example processor also alters an operation of the computing device based on the user gesture.
Systems and methods for adaptive input thresholding
The disclosed computer-implemented method may include detecting, by a computing system, a gesture that appears to be intended to trigger a response by the computing system, identifying, by the computing system, a context in which the gesture was performed, and adjusting, based at least on the context in which the gesture was performed, a threshold for determining whether to trigger the response to the gesture in a manner that causes the computing system to perform an action that is based on the detected gesture.
Wearable device and sensor device
A wearable device includes a wearable device main body, a sensor part configured to contact a skin surface of a user of the wearable device, and measure a bio-signal of the user, and a shock absorber that is interposed between the wearable device main body and the sensor part to mechanically connect the wearable device main body and the sensor part, and that is configured to reduce motion transmission between the wearable device main body and the sensor part to permit the wearable device main body to move independently from the sensor part.
Electronic apparatus
An electronic apparatus includes a display panel including a front surface and a rear surface opposite to the front surface, a lower panel having an opening portion defined therein, a fingerprint sensor including an upper portion, a lower portion, and a lateral portion, the sensor being in the opening portion with a space from a side wall of the opening portion, and an adhesive portion to bond the fingerprint sensor to the display panel. The adhesive portion includes a first adhesive portion between the rear surface of the display panel and the upper portion of the fingerprint sensor and a second adhesive portion around at least a portion of the lateral portion of the fingerprint sensor, and a minimum width and a minimum thickness of the second adhesive portion are each at least ½ of a thickness of the fingerprint sensor.
TERMINAL DEVICE
The present disclosure provides a terminal device. The terminal device includes a touch display layer, a fingerprint detection layer, and a shielding layer. The touch display layer includes a touch display surface. The fingerprint detection layer is arranged on a side of the touch display layer opposite the touch display surface. The shielding layer is arranged on the side of the touch display layer opposite the touch display surface. A part of the shielding layer corresponding to the fingerprint detection layer is located on a side of the fingerprint detection layer opposite the touch display layer. The shielding layer includes an electromagnetic shielding layer connected to a grounding end of the terminal device, and at least a part of the electromagnetic shielding layer is located on the side of the fingerprint detection layer opposite the touch display layer. The electromagnetic shielding layer in the terminal device can effectively protect a part of the touch display layer corresponding to the fingerprint detection layer, and prevent the part of the touch display layer corresponding to the fingerprint detection layer from being subject to electromagnetic radiation caused by the arrangement of the fingerprint detection layer, to solve a problem that the electromagnetic shielding layer fails to effectively protect the touch display layer due to an enlarged size of the fingerprint detection layer.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD INCLUDING FLEXIBLE DISPLAY
An electronic device according to various example embodiments may include a housing including a first housing and a second housing slidably coupled to the first housing within a specific range, a heating part disposed to at least one region of the first housing and second housing, a driving unit disposed to one region in the housing, a flexible display which may include a first portion exposed for view (visible to a user) to the outside of the housing and a second portion extending from the first portion and inserted into the housing or drawn out to the outside when the second housing moves with respect to the first housing, a support structure, at least one temperature sensor, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to sense a temperature and at least control a movement speed of the second housing based on at least the sensed temperature.
Modular sensing assembly for an electronic device
A modular sensing assembly may be used to detect user inputs at an electronic device. Example user inputs include touch inputs, fingerprint inputs, translational inputs, audio inputs, biometric inputs, and the like. Inputs received using the modular sensing assembly may be used to control a graphical output of a display of the electronic device. A modular sensing assembly may be configured, for example, as a power button, a key of a keyboard, a control button (e.g., volume control), a home button, a watch crown, and so on.
