Abstract
A display device includes a main body configured to have a display module to which an image is output, a bending module located at a center of a back surface of the main body, and a controller. The controller controls the bending module to change a curvature of the display module to any one of a flat mode in which the display module is flat, a first bending mode in which the display module has a first curvature, and a second bending mode in which the display module has a second curvature. The second curvature is a maximum curvature of the display module.
Claims15
A display device comprising:
- a main body configured to have a display at which an image is output;
- an actuator located at a center of a back surface of the main body;
- and
- a processor,
- wherein:
- the processor is configured to control the actuator to change a curvature of the display to any one of a flat mode in which the display is flat, a first bending mode in which the display has a first curvature, or a second bending mode in which the display has a second curvature;
- and
- the second curvature is a maximum curvature of the display.
A method for controlling a display device which includes a main body having a display at which an image is output, and an actuator located at a center of a back surface of the main body, the method comprising:
- outputting an image at the display of the display device;
- and
- controlling the actuator to change a curvature of the display to any one of a flat mode in which the display is flat, a first bending mode in which the display has a first curvature, or a second bending mode in which the display has a second curvature,
- wherein the second curvature is a maximum curvature of the display.
