Abstract
A flexible device includes a flexible body and a plurality of piezoelectric materials arranged on the flexible body that deform in response to drive signals causing deformation of the flexible body of the flexible device.
Claims16
A flexible device comprising:
- a flexible body;
- a plurality of piezoelectric materials on the flexible body;
- a flexible display panel supported by the flexible body;
- and
- a controller configured to identify a deformation state of the flexible body based on electric signals generated from the plurality of piezoelectric materials and perform a control operation corresponding to the deformation state.
