Extended visual capture in a reconfigurable service

A visual data capture device, comprising:

• a deformable display having a shape configuration;
• sensor circuitry to capture at least visual data;
• and
• control circuitry to determine that the display has changed to a new shape configuration, determine if the new shape configuration involves visual data capture and, based on a determination that the new shape configuration involves visual data capture, determine an operational mode for at least the sensor circuitry based on the new shape configuration and cause the sensor circuitry to capture visual data based at least on the operational mode.

A method for controlling a visual data capture device, comprising:

• determining that a deformable display having a shape configuration in a device has changed to a new shape configuration;
• determining if the new shape configuration involves visual data capture;
• and
• based on a determination that the new shape configuration involves visual data capture, configuring an operational mode for at least sensor circuitry in the device based on the shape configuration and causing the sensor circuitry to capture the visual data based on the operational mode.

At least one machine-readable storage medium having stored thereon, individually or in combination, instructions for controlling a visual data capture device that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• determine that a deformable display having a shape configuration in a device has changed to a new shape configuration;
• determine if the new shape configuration involves visual data capture;
• and
• based on a determination that the new shape configuration involves visual data capture, configure an operational mode for at least sensor circuitry in the device based on the shape configuration and cause the sensor circuitry to capture the visual data based on the operational mode.
