ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING DISPLAY AND CAMERA DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18155415 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING DISPLAY AND CAMERA DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device that includes a display and a camera device. The camera device overlaps with a portion of the display in a certain direction. The display has two active areas with different transmittance levels. The display panel also includes an opaque mask with two portions, one partially formed in the viewing angle area and the other encompassing the outer boundary of the viewing angle area.

  • The electronic device includes a display and a camera device.
  • The camera device overlaps with a portion of the display in a specific direction.
  • The display has two active areas with different transmittance levels.
  • The display panel includes an opaque mask with two portions.
  • One portion of the mask is partially formed in the viewing angle area.
  • The other portion of the mask has a specified width and encompasses the outer boundary of the viewing angle area.

Potential Applications

  • Mobile phones and tablets with front-facing cameras.
  • Laptops and computer monitors with built-in webcams.
  • Smart mirrors or displays with integrated cameras for facial recognition or video conferencing.

Problems Solved

  • Provides a solution for integrating a camera device into a display without obstructing the view.
  • Allows for a seamless design where the camera overlaps with the display.
  • Ensures that the camera's viewing angle is not compromised by the display panel.

Benefits

  • Improved aesthetics with a camera that blends into the display.
  • Enhanced functionality by integrating the camera into the display area.
  • Maintains the camera's full viewing angle without any obstructions.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a display and a camera device, the camera device overlaps at least a portion of an active area in a second direction of the display. The display comprises a display panel comprising a first active area, which has a first transmittance, at least partially overlaps on the camera device, and comprises a viewing angle area corresponding to the viewing angle of the camera device, and a second active area having a second transmittance that is lower than the first transmittance, the display panel comprises a mask layer comprising an opaque mask, and the opaque mask comprises a first portion at least partially formed in the viewing angle area, and a second portion formed to have a specified width and encompass the outer boundary of the viewing angle area.
