ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND OPERATION METHOD OF ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR SUPPORTING ONE HANDED OPERATION MODE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18091137 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND OPERATION METHOD OF ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR SUPPORTING ONE HANDED OPERATION MODE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an electronic device with a display that has two areas. It also includes two sensors on the side surface of the display, which can detect a grip. The device is equipped with a processor that can detect a grip based on the sensor values, receive touch input in the corresponding area, and convert it into a touch input for the entire display.
- The electronic device has a display with two distinct areas.
- Two sensors are placed on the side surface of the display to detect a grip.
- The processor can detect a grip based on the sensor values.
- Touch input can be received in the area where the grip is detected.
- The touch input is then converted to cover the entire display.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be used in smartphones or tablets to enhance user interaction.
- It can be applied in gaming devices to provide more intuitive controls.
- The electronic device can be used in automotive displays to improve user experience.
Problems Solved
- This technology solves the problem of limited touch input coverage on devices with multiple areas.
- It allows for a seamless transition of touch input from one area to the entire display.
- The sensors detecting grip help in accurately identifying the intended touch input area.
Benefits
- Users can have a more immersive and seamless touch experience on devices with multiple areas.
- The technology provides a more intuitive and natural way of interacting with electronic devices.
- It enhances the usability and functionality of electronic devices by expanding touch input coverage.
Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device according to the disclosure may include: a display including a first area and a second area; a first sensor and a second sensor disposed oppositely on at least a part of or an adjacent side surface corresponding to the first area and the second area of the display, each of the first sensor and the second sensor configured to detect a grip; and a processor operatively connected to the display, the first sensor, and the second sensor, wherein the processor is configured to: detect a grip based on a sensor value change of one of the first sensor or the second sensor, receive a touch input sensed in at least a partial area of one of the first area or the second area of the display corresponding to the sensor among the first sensor or the second sensor detecting the grip, and convert into a touch input targeting an entire area of the display including the first area and the second area.
