Abstract
An electronic device includes a deformable housing and a flexible display supported by the deformable housing. One or more flex sensors supported by the deformable housing detect the electronic device is deformed at a deformation portion to partition the flexible display into a first portion and a second portion. One or more processors present content on the first portion of the flexible display in response to detecting the flexible display being deformed, and remediate the second portion of the flexible display to compensate performance degradation of the flexible display resulting from presenting content on the first portion of the flexible display.
Claims20
An electronic device, comprising;
- a deformable housing;
- a flexible display supported by the deformable housing;
- one or more flex sensors supported by the deformable housing, the one or more flex sensors detecting when the electronic device is deformed at a deformation portion to partition the flexible display into a first portion and a second portion;
- and
- one or more processors operable with the flexible display and the one or more flex sensors, the one or more processors presenting content on the first portion of the flexible display in response to detecting the flexible display being deformed, and remediating the second portion of the flexible display to compensate performance degradation of the flexible display resulting from the presenting content on the first portion of the flexible display.
An electronic device, comprising;
- a deformable housing;
- a flexible display supported by the deformable housing;
- one or more flex sensors supported by the deformable housing, the one or more flex sensors detecting when the electronic device is deformed at a deformation portion to partition the flexible display into a first portion and a second portion;
- and
- one or more processors operable with the flexible display and the one or more flex sensors, the one or more processors selecting one of the first portion or the second portion on which to present content to remediate the one of the first portion or the second portion to compensate performance degradation as a function of a content presentation history the first portion and the second portion.
A method, comprising:
- detecting, with one or more flex sensors of an electronic device, deformation of a flexible display by a bend;
- determining, with one or more processors, a portion of the flexible display, disposed to one side of the bend, and requiring remediation to compensate performance degradation of the flexible display resulting from the presenting content to the one side of the bend or to another side of the bend;
- and
- remediating the portion of the flexible display.
