==FOLDABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE CAPABLE OF DETECTING FINGERPRINT THROUGH AT LEAST PART OF DISPLAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17958977 titled 'FOLDABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE CAPABLE OF DETECTING FINGERPRINT THROUGH AT LEAST PART OF DISPLAY

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes an electronic device with a foldable housing and a hinge. The device includes two housings that can be folded relative to each other. 

* The first housing has a surface facing one direction and another surface facing the opposite direction. 
* The second housing also has two surfaces, one facing a different direction than the other. 
* When folded, the first surface of the first housing faces the third surface of the second housing. 
* The first display extends from the first surface to the third surface.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Foldable smartphones or tablets
* Foldable laptops or notebooks
* Foldable e-readers or digital notepads

Problems solved by this technology:

* Provides a compact and portable device that can be easily carried and stored.
* Allows for a larger display area without increasing the overall size of the device.
* Provides flexibility in using the device in different orientations.

Benefits of this technology:

* Enhanced portability and convenience for users.
* Increased screen real estate for better multimedia experiences.
* Versatility in using the device in different modes (e.g., tablet mode, laptop mode).


==Original Abstract Submitted==

An electronic device includes a foldable housing including a hinge, a first housing connected to the hinge and including a first surface facing a first direction and a second surface facing a second direction opposite to the first direction, and a second housing connected to the hinge, the second housing including a third surface facing a third direction and a fourth surface facing a fourth direction opposite to the third direction, wherein the first housing and the second housing are foldable relative to each with respect to the hinge, and the first surface faces the third surface in a folded state and the third direction is the same as the first direction in an unfolded state, and a first display forming the first surface and the third surface and extending from the first surface to the third surface.
