ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DISPLAYING SCREEN THROUGH FLEXIBLE DISPLAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18311549 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DISPLAYING SCREEN THROUGH FLEXIBLE DISPLAY
Simplified Explanation
According to an embodiment, an electronic device includes: a flexible display, at least one sensor, and a processor; wherein the processor is configured to: control the display to display an object at least partially superimposed on a first user interface displayed on the first display area and the second display area, on a portion of an edge of the first display area; identify that the state of the electronic device is changed from a second state to a first state, while the object is displayed on the portion of the edge of the first display area; display the object the portion of the edge of the second display area extending from the edge of the first display area, in response to identifying that the state of the electronic device is changed from the second state to the first state.
- An electronic device with a flexible display, sensor, and processor is described.
- The processor controls the display to show an object partially superimposed on a user interface displayed on the first and second display areas.
- The object is displayed on a portion of the edge of the first display area.
- When the state of the electronic device changes from a second state to a first state, the object is displayed on the portion of the edge of the second display area.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Enhanced user interfaces on electronic devices with flexible displays.
- Improved multitasking capabilities by displaying objects on the edges of the display.
- Innovative design possibilities for electronic devices with flexible displays.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Limited screen space on electronic devices can be maximized by utilizing the edges of the display.
- Users can easily access and interact with objects displayed on the edges of the display.
- Multitasking on electronic devices can be more efficient and intuitive.
Benefits of this technology:
- Enhanced user experience with a larger display area for content and interactions.
- Increased productivity and efficiency through improved multitasking capabilities.
- More flexibility in design and functionality for electronic devices with flexible displays.
