Abstract
Examples disclosed herein provide an electronic device. One example electronic device includes a housing, a display panel stored in the housing, a base connector to interface with a base that provides structure support for the housing, and a controller connected to the base connector. The controller is to determine a type of the base via the base connector and set an input source of the controller based on the type.
Claims15
An electronic device comprising:
- a housing;
- a display panel stored in the housing;
- a base connector to interface with a base that provides structure support for the housing;
- and
- a controller connected to the base connector, wherein the controller is to:
- determine a type of the base via the base connector;
- and
- set an input source of the controller based on the type.
An electronic device comprising:
- a housing;
- a display panel stored in the housing;
- a base connector to interface with a base that provides structure support for the housing, wherein the base connector is to receive a set of signals from the base, wherein the set of signals include a base identification signal and a video signal, and wherein the base identification signal indicates a type of the base;
- and
- a video scaler connected to the base connector, wherein the video scaler is to:
- receive the video signal;
- and
- set a processing format of the video signal based on the base identification signal.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that when executed cause a controller of an electronic device to:
- in response to establishing a first connection with a first base via a base connector, determine a first type of the first base via the base connector;
- set a processing format of a video signal to a first video format based on the first type, wherein the video signal is received via the base connector;
- and
- change the processing format to a second video format in response to determining that the base connector is connected to a second base having a different type than the first type.
