DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18105520 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SAME
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a display apparatus that includes a mirror display with adjustable reflectivity. It also includes a memory that stores information about the reflectivity for each application, and a processor that displays the application on the mirror display and adjusts the reflectivity based on the corresponding application.
- The display apparatus has a mirror display that can change its reflectivity.
- It has a memory that stores information about the reflectivity for different applications.
- When a user command is given to display an application, the processor adjusts the reflectivity of the mirror display based on the reflectivity corresponding to that application.
Potential Applications
- Smart mirrors that can display different applications with varying reflectivity.
- Interactive displays that adjust their reflectivity based on the content being displayed.
- Personalized mirrors that can show different information to different users.
Problems Solved
- Traditional mirrors cannot display digital content.
- Fixed reflectivity of mirrors limits their functionality.
- Lack of customization in mirror displays.
Benefits
- Allows for the display of digital content on a mirror surface.
- Provides flexibility in adjusting the reflectivity of the mirror display.
- Enables personalized and interactive experiences with mirrors.
Original Abstract Submitted
An example display apparatus includes a mirror display having adjustable reflectivity; a memory in which is stored, for each of one or more applications, information pertaining to the reflectivity corresponding to the application; and a processor that, when a user command for displaying the application is input, displays the application on the mirror display and adjusts, based on the reflectivity corresponding to the application among the one or more applications, the reflectivity of the region of the mirror display in which the application is displayed.
