Abstract
A method of transferring data between a plurality of flexible interface devices, includes an operation in which the flexible interface devices are flexed due to external force from a user, an operation in which the flexible interface devices acquire flex information generated when the flexible interface devices are flexed, through a plurality of flex sensors, and an operation in which at least one of the flexible interface devices transfers data between the flexible interface devices based on the flex information.
Claims23
A flexible display device comprising:
- a display panel configured to allow display in a flexed position;
- a flex sensor configured to measure first flex information corresponding to a flex of the flexible display panel;
- a processor configured to provide a data transfer command according to the first flex information;
- a data memory configured to store content;
- and
- a communication module configured to transmit or receive the content according to the data transfer command.
A method of transferring data between a plurality of flexible interface devices, comprising:
- flexing the plurality of flexible interface devices with external force;
- at the plurality of flexible interface devices, acquiring a plurality of pieces of flex information, wherein each piece of the plurality of pieces of flex information corresponds to a flex of a flexible interface device from which the corresponding flex information is generated, among the plurality of flexible interface devices;
- and
- at the plurality of flexible interface devices, transferring data between the plurality of flexible interface devices, according to at least one piece of information of the plurality of pieces of flex information.
An operation method of a flexible interface device, comprising:
- at a first flexible interface device that is in a first state, acquiring flex information of a second flexible interface device, wherein the flex information of the second flexible interface device corresponds to a flex of the second flexible interface device;
- and
- at the first flexible interface device, changing the first state to a second state that is different from the first state, based on the flex information.
An operation method of a flexible interface device, comprising:
- at a first flexible interface device, sensing a flex due to external force from a user, and acquiring flex information of the first flexible interface device;
- and
- at the first flexible interface device, transmitting or receiving data to or from another device based on the flex information of the first flexible interface device.
