Abstract
In example implementations, a modular display system is provided. The modular display system includes a center modular display and a curved modular display. The center modular display is bezel free on a left side and a right side. The curved modular display includes a single bezel free side and a display area that is less than, or equal to, a display area of the center modular display. The single bezel free side of the curved modular display is in communication with the left side, or the right side, of the center modular display such that the center modular display and the curved modular display appear as a single display to a computing device.
Claims22
A first modular display, comprising:
- a display area;
- and
- a first side that is capable of being bezel free, the first side including a physical connector to couple to a corresponding physical connector on a complementary bezel free side of a second modular display having a curved display area that is less than, or equal to, a display area of the first modular display, wherein the physical connector and the corresponding physical connector allows the second modular display to be coupled to the first modular display such that the first modular display and the second modular display appear as a single display to a computing device.
A first modular display, comprising:
- a display area;
- a first side that is capable of being bezel free, the first side including a first physical connector to couple to a corresponding physical connector on a respective complementary bezel free side of a second modular display;
- a second side that is opposite the first side and capable of being bezel free, the second side including a second physical connector to couple to a corresponding physical connector on a respective complementary bezel free side of a third modular display, wherein the second modular display and the third modular display comprise a curved display area that is less than, or equal to, a display area of the first modular display, wherein the first physical connector allows the second modular display to couple to the first modular display and the second physical connector allows the second modular display to be coupled to the first modular display such that the first modular display, the second modular display, and the third modular display appear as a single display to a computing device.
The first modular display of 13, wherein the first modular display is to perform a restart function when the additional first modular displays are added to send the computing device new dimensions of the first modular display, the additional first modular displays, the second modular display, and the third modular display.
A curved modular display, comprising:
- a curved display area;
- a bezel coupled to a first side, a second side, and a third side;
- a plurality of reconfigurable buttons on the third side of the curved modular display;
- a bezel free side opposite the third side of the curved modular display;
- an electrical connector coupled to the bezel free side to connect with a corresponding electrical connector on a first side of a center modular display that is capable of being bezel free;
- and
- a physical connector coupled to the bezel free side to physically connect with a corresponding physical connector on the first side of the center modular display.
