System and method of rendering data based on an angle of a carrying case flap

A method comprising:

• at a system comprising:
• a mobile device comprising:
• a processor and a display device;
• a carrying case configured to mate with the mobile device, the carrying case comprising a flap having an open position and a closed position, the flap at least partially obscuring the display device in the closed position when the mobile device is mated with the carrying case;
• and, a sensor located at one or more of the mobile device and the carrying case, the sensor configured to measure an angle between the flap and the display device as the flap moves between the closed position and the open position,
• measuring, at the sensor, the angle between the flap and the display device;
• receiving, at the processor, from the sensor, the angle;
• and,
• rendering, using the processor, data at the display device based on the angle.

A tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a computer-executable program wherein execution of the computer-executable program is for:

• at a system comprising:
• a mobile device comprising:
• a processor and a display device;
• a carrying case configured to mate with the mobile device, the carrying case comprising a flap having an open position and a closed position, the flap at least partially obscuring the display device in the closed position when the mobile device is mated with the carrying case;
• and, a sensor located at one or more of the mobile device and the carrying case, the sensor configured to measure an angle between the flap and the display device as the flap moves between the closed position and the open position,
• measuring, at the sensor, the angle between the flap and the display device;
• receiving, at the processor, from the sensor, the angle;
• and,
• rendering, using the processor, data at the display device based on the angle.
