Imaging for foldable displays
A processing unit, comprising a display interface to control a foldable display with multiple segments created by fold lines in the foldable display. The processing unit also including a plurality of lanes to connect the display interface to the foldable display, where each segment of the foldable display is connected to a lane. The processing unit also including a multi-segment protocol component to instruct the display interface to drive data to each segment of the display through the plurality of lanes.
1. A mobile electronic device comprising:
a housing having a first housing segment and a second housing segment, the first housing segment moveable relative to the second housing segment between (a) a first position in which the first housing segment is aligned with the second housing segment and (b) a second position in which the first housing segment is at an angle relative to the second housing segment;
a first display screen supported by a first side of the housing, the first display screen including a first display section supported by the first housing segment and a second display section supported by the second housing segment;
a second display screen supported by a second side of the housing opposite the first side of the housing;
a sensor;
instructions; and
processor circuitry to execute the instructions to:
cause first content to be presented on the first display section and the second display section of the first display screen when the first housing segment is in the first position;
cause a modified version of the first content to be presented on a visible region of the first display screen when the first housing segment is in the second position; and
cause second content to be presented on the second display screen when the first housing segment is in the second position.
2. The mobile electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor circuitry is to detect a change in orientation of the mobile electronic device when the first housing segment is in the second position and cause the presentation of the modified version of the first content to be adjusted.
3. The mobile electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor circuitry is to detect a change of the first housing segment from the first position to the second position based on outputs of the sensor.
4. The mobile electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the processor circuitry is to cause the modified version of the first content to be presented on the visible region of the first display screen after relative movement of the first and second housing segments.
5. The mobile electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the visible region of the first display screen is smaller than a display region of the first display screen on which the first content is presented when the first housing segment is in the first position.
6. The mobile electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the modified version of the first content includes a scaled version of the first content.
7. The mobile electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first housing segment and the second housing segment lie in a same plane when the first housing segment is in the first position.
8. The mobile electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the second content is associated with the first content.
