Information processing apparatus
The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus having panels formed inside and outside of its covering member. The information processing apparatus includes a body, a covering member, a first panel, a second panel, a first driver and a second driver. The covering member covers the body. The first panel is formed on an internal surface of the covering member. The second panel is formed on an external surface of the covering member. The first driver drives the first panel. The second driver drives the second panel. Here, at least one of the first driver and the second driver drives corresponding panel. The information processing apparatus includes a second panel formed on an outside surface of a covering member, and so the consumption of a battery is reduced.
