A portable information handling system modular hybrid architecture separates components between rotationally coupled housing portions to minimize cabling, connectors and materials, and to provide improved durability that supports recycling and reuse of the components. For example, a plurality of housing cover configurations couple to housing portions of different dimensions with opposing couples and a common keystone element that, when installed, prevents separation of the opposing couplers. Removal of the keystone element provides ready access to the housing portion interior to recycle processing components, such as a secondary board having an embedded controller and charger and a battery interfaced with the secondary board.

In example implementations, an electronic device housing is provided. The electronic device housing includes a display housing, a lifting mechanism, abase housing, and a secondary display. The lifting mechanism is coupled to a side of the display housing. The base housing is coupled to the display housing. The secondary display is coupled to a distal side of the base housing. The lifting mechanism is to lift the secondary display on a rotation of the display housing.

An information processing apparatus capable of simultaneously executing a reproduction function of content data and a communication function with an external apparatus includes a reproduction section configured to execute the reproduction function, a communication control section configured to execute the communication function using a communication section, an operation input allocation section configured to allocate an operation input from a first operation section to the reproduction function or the communication function, an operation input acquisition section configured to acquire an operation input from a second operation section, and a display control section configured to cause a display section to display information relating to the reproduction function or information relating to the communication function.

Disclosed herein is an integrated display device for a mobile terminal. The integrated display device includes: a terminal connection module including an accommodation part configured to accommodate a mobile terminal, and a docking part connected to the mobile terminal via a multimedia transmission and reception terminal and configured to receive image data output from the mobile terminal; and a display module including a display part configured to include a display device larger than a display device of the mobile terminal, and a controller configured to include a resizing module adapted to resize the image data received from the docking part and provide the resized image data to the display part; wherein the display module is integrated with one side surface of the terminal connection module; and wherein at least one operation button is located on the front surface of the accommodation part.

A terminal control method, a terminal and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are provided. The terminal control method includes: receiving, by a microphone, a detection audio signal emitted from a speaker and having a frequency within a pre-set detection frequency range; acquiring actual audio parameters of the detection audio signal when being received by the microphone, and original audio parameters of the detection audio signal when being emitted from the speaker; determining a relative state between the microphone and the speaker according to the actual audio parameters and the original audio parameters; determining a terminal control operation to be performed, according to the relative state and a pre-set correspondence between relative states and terminal control operations; and performing the determined terminal control operation on a terminal where the microphone is located.

A display assistant device comprises a display, a camera, a speaker, microphones, a processor and memory. The memory stores programs comprising instructions that, when executed by the processor, enable a plurality of modes of the display assistant device. The modes include a monitoring mode and an assistant mode. In the monitoring mode, the device is configured to perform a remote monitoring function in which first video captured by the camera is streamed to a remote server system for monitoring uses. The monitoring uses include transmission of the first video to remote client devices authorized to access the first video. In the assistant mode, the device is configured to perform a second plurality of functions that excludes the monitoring function and includes a video communication function in which second video captured by the camera is transmitted to second devices participating in a video communication with a first user of the device.

An electronic device and method for generating an audio signal is provided. According to various example embodiments, an electronic device may include a display configured to depict visual information to the outside of the electronic device. The electronic device further includes an actuator to cause the display to vibrate. A processor is electrically connected to the actuator and the display. The processor applies a pilot signal to the actuator, and detects an amount of vibration of the display caused by applying the pilot signal. The processor sets an environment of the audio signal based on the amount of vibration of the display.

An electronic device and method for controlling the electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a first surface in a first direction, a second surface in a second direction opposite to the first direction, and a third surface enclosing at least a portion of a space formed between the first surface and the second surface. The electronic device also includes an audio module changing an audio signal input to the electronic device into an electronic signal, and a processor being operationally connected to the display and the audio module. The processor is configured to detect the audio signal input via the audio module from a first user via the first surface, detect a touch signal dragged from the third surface in the direction of the second surface, and display in the second surface a translation corresponding to the audio signal.

An electronic device includes a housing sidewall defining an opening and a display component, such as a display cover, disposed in the opening to form a gap between the housing sidewall and the display component. In at least one example, the cavity is defined by the sidewall and the display cover with the cavity in fluid communication with an external environment through the gap. In at least one example, an epoxy component at least partially defines the cavity and can be in direct contact with the housing sidewall.
