Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to a dynamic curved screen. In one embodiment, the present disclosure includes display comprising a flexible screen. A sensor is configured on the display to sense a distance between a user and the screen. The distance may be used to determine a position of the user relative to the screen. An actuator is configured to adjust a curvature of the flexible screen based on the distance. Accordingly, the field of view of the user is improved.
