Flexible devices and related methods of use
Disclosed are devices which include flexible display sheets or other flexible elements, whereas by physically manipulating said flexible display sheets or elements, interaction with said device may be facilitated. Flexibility features may be employed to provide methods of interaction which include manipulating flexible section. Some of said methods of interaction are disclosed. Further disclosed are units which can connect to flexible display sheets, for interacting with said flexible display sheets.
1. A device comprising:
a flexible display configured to present at least one object;
a sensor configured to sense bending of the flexible display; and
a processor configured to control the flexible display to change a position of the at least one object in a direction corresponding to a bending direction of the flexible display,
wherein the processor is configured to move the at least one object in a first direction in response to a portion of the flexible display being bent in a backward direction and to move the at least one object in a second direction opposite to the first direction in response to the portion of the flexible display being bent in a forward direction.
2. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bending of the flexible display is bending of at least one side of the flexible display.
3. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a moving direction of the at least one object is changed according to the sensed bending.
4. A method of controlling a device, the method comprising:
presenting at least one object through a flexible display;
sensing bending of the flexible display; and
controlling the flexible display to change a position of the at least one object in a direction corresponding to a bending direction of the flexible display,
wherein the controlling the flexible display comprises controlling the flexible display to move the at least one object in a first direction in response to bending of a portion of the flexible display being bent in a backward direction and to move the at least one object in a second direction opposite to the first direction in response to the portion of the flexible display being bent in a forward direction.
5. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the bending of the flexible display is bending of at least one side of the flexible display.
6. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein a moving direction of the at least one object is changed according to the sensed bending.
7. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for executing a method of controlling a device, the method comprising:
presenting at least one object through a flexible display;
sensing bending of the flexible display; and
controlling the flexible display to change a position of the at least one object in a direction corresponding to a bending direction of the flexible display,
wherein the controlling the flexible display comprises controlling the flexible display to move the at least one object in a first direction in response to a portion of the flexible display being bent in a backward direction and to move the at least one object in a second direction opposite to the first direction in response to the portion of the flexible display being bent in a forward direction.
8. The medium as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the bending of the flexible display is bending of at least one side of the flexible display.
9. The medium as claimed in claim 7 , wherein a moving direction of the at least one object is changed according to the sensed bending.
