Orientation-agnostic full-screen user interface displays for electronic devices

An orientation-agnostic user interface display system comprising:

• a processor;
• a display operatively coupled to the processor;
• an input device operatively coupled to the processor;
• and a memory operatively coupled to the processor, the memory storing executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, causes the orientation-agnostic user interface display system to perform a method for controlling a user interface to provide display of images in an orientation-agnostic manner independent of a physical orientation of the display screen, the method comprising:
• detecting, by a spatial input device of the orientation-agnostic user interface display system, an orientation of a display screen of the electronic device in space, wherein said detecting of the orientation of the display screen in space comprises determining an angle of rotation relative to one of an earth-level plane and another reference plane;
• determining a corrective angle, relative to the display screen, to counteract the orientation of the display screen, the corrective angle causing display of an image in a predetermined home orientation relative to space;
• determining required image dimensions for display of the image to fill the display screen when oriented at the corrective angle relative to the display screen;
• scaling the image to the required image dimensions, if necessary;
• and displaying the scaled image on the display screen in an angular orientation relative to the display screen corresponding to the corrective angle.

A computer program product for implementing a method for control of a user interface to provide display of images in an orientation-agnostic manner independent of a physical orientation of the display screen, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause an orientation-agnostic user interface display system to perform a method comprising:

• detecting, by a spatial input device of the orientation-agnostic user interface display system, an orientation of a display screen of the electronic device in space, wherein said detecting of the orientation of the display screen in space comprises determining an angle of rotation relative to one of an earth-level plane and another reference plane;
• determining a corrective angle, relative to the display screen, to counteract the orientation of the display screen, the corrective angle causing display of an image in a predetermined home orientation relative to space;
• determining required image dimensions for display of the image to fill the display screen when oriented at the corrective angle relative to the display screen;
• scaling the image to the required image dimensions, if necessary;
• and displaying the scaled image on the display screen in an angular orientation relative to the display screen corresponding to the corrective angle.
