Abstract
A multi display apparatus includes a first body including a first display, a second body including a second display, a hinge configured to rotatably connect the first body and the second body to support the first body and the second body, a sensor configured to sense a first user manipulation made in a nondecisive location of a nonstructured first screen displayed on the first display and to sense a second user manipulation made in a nondecisive location of a nonstructured second screen displayed on the second display, and a controller configured to combine the sensed first user manipulation and second user manipulation to perform an operation corresponding to a result of the combination.
Claims16
A multi display apparatus comprising:
- a first body comprising a first display;
- a second body comprising a second display;
- a hinge configured to rotatably connect the first body and the second body to support the first body and the second body;
- a sensor configured to sense a first user manipulation made in a nondecisive location of a nonstructured first screen displayed on the first display and to sense a second user manipulation made in a nondecisive location of a nonstructured second screen displayed on the second display;
- and
- a controller configured to combine the sensed first user manipulation and the sensed second user manipulation to perform an operation corresponding to a result of the combination, to extract contents displayed on the first display when the first user manipulation is sensed, and to display a screen corresponding to the extracted contents on the second display when the second user manipulation is sensed.
A multi display apparatus comprising:
- a first body comprising a first display;
- a second body comprising a second display;
- a hinge configured to rotatably connect the first body and the second body to support the first body and the second body;
- a sensor configured to sense a first user manipulation made in a nondecisive location of a nonstructured first screen displayed on the first display and to sense a second user manipulation made in a nondecisive location of a nonstructured second screen displayed on the second display;
- and
- a controller configured to combine the sensed first user manipulation and the sensed second user manipulation to perform an operation corresponding to a result of the combination,
- wherein the sensed first user manipulation comprises a touch input or a proximity input for a predetermined time.
A multi display method of a multi display apparatus comprising a first body comprising a first display, a second body comprising a second display, and a hinge configured to rotatably connect the first body and the second body to support the first body and the second body, the multi display method comprising:
- displaying a nonstructured first screen on the first display;
- displaying a nonstructured second screen on the second display;
- sensing a first user manipulation made in a nondecisive location on the first screen and a second user manipulation made in a nondecisive location on the second screen;
- extracting contents displayed on the first display when the first user manipulation is sensed;
- and
- combining the sensed first user manipulation and the sensed second user manipulation and performing an operation corresponding to a result of the combination,
- wherein performing the operation comprises displaying a screen corresponding to the extracted contents on the second display when the second user manipulation is sensed.
A multi display method of a multi display apparatus comprising a first body comprising a first display, a second body comprising a second display, and a hinge configured to rotatably connect the first body and the second body to support the first body and the second body, the multi display method comprising:
- displaying a nonstructured first screen on the first display;
- displaying a nonstructured second screen on the second display;
- sensing a first user manipulation made in a nondecisive location on the first screen and a second user manipulation made in a nondecisive location on the second screen;
- combining the sensed first user manipulation and the sensed second user manipulation and performing an operation corresponding to a result of the combination,
- wherein the sensed first user manipulation comprises a touch input or a proximity input for a predetermined time.
