Display Control Method and Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17922250 titled 'Display Control Method and Apparatus
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method and apparatus for controlling the display of a mobile terminal when it is connected to an external device during a voice call. The method includes determining whether the mobile terminal is in a handheld or non-handheld state, and based on this determination, controlling the display to be either in a screen-on or screen-off state.
- The method is specifically designed for mobile terminals connected to external devices during voice calls.
- The display control solution is intelligently selected based on whether the mobile terminal is in a handheld or non-handheld state.
- The method ensures that the display is in an appropriate state during voice calls, optimizing user experience and power consumption.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be applied to various mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, that are connected to external devices during voice calls.
- It can be used in situations where users frequently switch between handheld and non-handheld states during voice calls, such as using a hands-free device or switching between speakerphone and regular mode.
Problems Solved
- Ensures that the display of the mobile terminal is appropriately controlled during voice calls, based on the handheld or non-handheld state.
- Prevents unnecessary power consumption by turning off the display when the mobile terminal is in a non-handheld state during a voice call.
- Optimizes user experience by keeping the display on when the mobile terminal is in a handheld state during a voice call.
Benefits
- Improved power efficiency by controlling the display state based on the handheld or non-handheld state during voice calls.
- Enhanced user experience by ensuring that the display is in an appropriate state during voice calls, based on the user's interaction with the mobile terminal.
- Simplified and intelligent display control solution for mobile terminals connected to external devices during voice calls.
Original Abstract Submitted
This application discloses a display control method and an apparatus. The method is applied to a mobile terminal, the mobile terminal includes a display, the mobile terminal is connected to an external device, and the method includes: when the mobile terminal is on a voice call by using the external device, determining that the mobile terminal is in a handheld state or a non-handheld state; and when the mobile terminal is in the handheld state, controlling the display to be in a screen-on state; or when the mobile terminal is in the non-handheld state, controlling the display to be in a screen-off state. When the mobile terminal is on the voice call by using the external device, a display control solution is intelligently selected by determining that the mobile terminal is in the handheld state or the non-handheld state.
