WINDOW DISPLAY METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240094858 titled 'WINDOW DISPLAY METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure relates to window display methods and electronic devices. In one example window display method, an electronic device displays a first window and a second window, where a screen direction of the electronic device is a first direction. The screen direction is one of a portrait direction, a landscape direction, a reverse portrait direction, and a reverse landscape direction, and a display direction of the first window is the first direction. When detecting that the screen direction of the electronic device changes from the first direction to a second direction, the electronic device keeps a display direction of the second window unchanged, and rotates the first window so that the display direction of the first window is the second direction.

  • Electronic device displays two windows with different screen directions.
  • Screen direction can be portrait, landscape, reverse portrait, or reverse landscape.
  • When screen direction changes, the device rotates the first window to match the new direction while keeping the second window unchanged.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in:

  • Retail stores for interactive window displays.
  • Digital signage for dynamic content presentation.
  • Museums for interactive exhibits.

Problems Solved

This technology solves the problem of maintaining consistent display orientation when the screen direction of an electronic device changes.

Benefits

  • Enhanced user experience with seamless display transitions.
  • Improved visibility and engagement with content.
  • Simplified content management for multiple display orientations.

Potential Commercial Applications

  • Digital signage companies can integrate this technology for versatile display solutions.
  • Retailers can use this technology to create engaging storefront displays.
  • Museums and galleries can enhance visitor experiences with interactive exhibits.

Possible Prior Art

One potential prior art could be the use of gyroscope sensors in smartphones to adjust screen orientation based on device movement.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact battery life on electronic devices?

This article does not address the potential impact of this technology on the battery life of electronic devices.

Are there any limitations to the number of windows that can be displayed using this method?

The article does not specify if there are any limitations to the number of windows that can be displayed and managed by the electronic device.
