Device support and electronic device

Abstract

This invention provides a device support and electronic device, including several retractable legs, a control module, and a gyroscope. One end of each retractable leg is disposed on the outer shell of the device body and electrically connected to the control module through the outer shell. The other end of each retractable leg is disposed on any support surface that can support the device body. The retractable legs are used to support the device body and adjust the position and orientation of the device body by extending and retracting. The gyroscope is disposed within the device body and is used to detect position and orientation changes of the device body. The control module is disposed within the device body and is electrically connected to the gyroscope and each retractable leg. The control module is used to adjust the extension and retraction of each retractable leg according to the position and orientation change information detected by the gyroscope.
