Those of ordinary skill in the art will understand that as technology develops and new scenarios emerge, the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application are equally applicable to similar technical problems.

[0064] Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application. The terms used in the embodiments of the present application are only used to explain the specific embodiments of the present application, rather than to limit the present application.

[0065] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present application more apparent and understandable, the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0066] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the principle of detachable connection between a display component and a body in an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 is Figure 1 a schematic structural diagram of the electronic device shown after the display component and the body are connected based on the first connection component. The electronic device shown includes: a display component 100, and the display component 100 is provided with a collection module 101; a body 102, the body 102 has a connection side 103 and a free side 104 arranged oppositely, the connection side 103 is provided with a first connection component 105, and the display component 100 is detachably connected to the body 102 through the first connection component 105; the first connection component 105 is used to identify the connection state of the display component 100, and based on the connection state, the collection module 101 can collect an image departing from the free side 104.

[0067] In the embodiment of the present application, the body 102 of the electronic device is provided with a first connection component 105 on the connection side 103, the display component 100 can be detachably connected to the body 102 through the first connection component 105, and the display component 100 and the body 102 can be easily disassembled, and can quickly transform forms in different usage scenarios.

[0068] When the display component 100 is connected to the body through the first connection component 105, the electronic device can be used as a laptop computer. When the display component 100 is not connected to the body 102, the display component 100 can be used alone as a tablet computer. Compared with the conventional design scheme in which the display component and the body are directly rotatably connected, the electronic device in the technical solution of the present application has more usage modes.

[0069] In addition, when the display component 100 is connected to the body based on the first connection component 105, an image of the side away from the free side 104 can also be collected by the collection module 101. That is, when the electronic device is in Figure 2 the laptop computer usage mode shown in the figure, the collection module 101 can collect an image of the environment opposite the user using the electronic device. That is, the image collection direction of the collection module 101 is towards the back direction of the electronic device.

[0070] Optionally, the first connection component 105 may include a Magic Bay 3.0 interface, including a USB 2.0 interface and a USB 3.0 interface, and the interface power may be 20W. The display data in the display component 100 may be communicated based on the USB 3.0 interface, and the collection module 101 and touch data in the display component 100 may be communicated using USB 2.0. The first connection component 105 may be used to support and connect the display component 100. The first connection component 105 may support and fix the opening and closing of the display screen. As described below, the first connection component 105 may also adjust the included angle between the display component 100 and the body 102 by rotation.

[0071] Refer to Figures 3 - 5 , Figure 3 which is a schematic diagram of the principle of detachable connection between the display component and the body in another electronic device provided by the embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 is Figure 3 a schematic diagram of the structure of the electronic device shown in the figure after the display component and the body are connected based on the first connection component, Figure 5 is Figure 4 a schematic diagram of the structure of the electronic device shown in the figure in another posture.

[0072] On the basis of other embodiments, Figures 3 - 5 in the electronic device shown in the figure, the display component 100 includes a first display screen 106, and the collection module 101 includes a first collection module 107 provided on the first display screen 106; one side of the first display screen 106 has a second connection component 108, and the first collection module 107 is provided on the opposite side; the second connection component 108 is used for pluggable connection with the first connection component 105; wherein, the first display screen 106 can perform one-way display.

[0073] The second connection component 108 is provided at the lower end of the first display screen 106. The second connection component is used as the connection support part of the first display screen 106. The first display screen 106 can be connected to the body 102 according to the second connection component 108 to achieve electrical connection and signal interaction with the body 102. A Magic Bay 3.0 interface or other type of interface may be reserved at the bottom of the first display screen 106 as the second connection component 108.

[0074] InFigures 3 - 5 In the shown manner, the first display screen 106 is a non-transparent screen and can perform one-way display. When it is plugged into the first connection component 105 through the second connection component 108, the display side of the first display screen 106 faces the free side 104 of the body 102, that is, when the electronic device is Figure 4 and Figure 5 in the laptop computer usage mode shown, the display side of the first display screen 106 faces the user of the electronic device.

[0075] Among them, the first acquisition module 107 can rotate based on an axis parallel to the corresponding side of the first display screen 106. This side is the side of the first display screen 106 away from the connection side 103, that is, Figure 4 and Figure 5 the upper side of the first display screen 106 in . In this manner, the first acquisition module 107 can rotate with the side of the first display screen 106 as the axis, can adjust the image acquisition direction, and when the first display screen 106 is plugged into the body 102, it can rotate based on the axis so that the first acquisition module 107 faces the direction away from the free side 104 and is used as a rear camera to facilitate the acquisition of images away from the free side 104. In a conventional laptop computer, the display screen generally only has a front camera and cannot implement the image acquisition of the back environment.

[0076] Refer to Figures 6 - 8 , Figure 6 which is a schematic diagram of the principle of detachable connection between the display component and the body in another electronic device provided by the embodiment of the present application. Figure 7 is Figure 6 a schematic structural diagram of the electronic device shown after the display component and the body are connected based on the first connection component. Figure 8 is Figure 7 a schematic structural diagram of the electronic device shown in another posture.

[0077] On the basis of other embodiments, Figures 6 - 8In the electronic device shown, the display component 100 includes a second display screen 109, and the acquisition module 101 includes a second acquisition module 110 disposed on the second display screen 109; a third connection component 111 and the second acquisition module 110 are disposed on the same side of the second display screen 109; the third connection component 111 is at least used for pluggable connection with the first connection component 105; wherein, the second display screen 109 can perform two-way display; the second acquisition module 110 can expand and contract based on an axis perpendicular to the corresponding side of the second display screen 109, that is, the second acquisition module 110 can expand and contract in the thickness direction of the second display screen 109. The third connection component 111 includes a built-in acquisition control module, and the acquisition control module is used to control the working state of the second acquisition module 110. The third connection component 111 may include a Magic Bay 3.0 interface. The third connection component 111 is used to connect to the main body 102 and the second display screen 109. In Figures 6 - 8 In the manner shown, the second display screen 109 is a transparent screen and can perform two-way display. Therefore, the second display screen 109 has two opposite display surfaces, and both display surfaces can perform image display. Based on the transparent property of the transparent screen, when the second display screen 109 is plugged into the first connection component 105 through the third connection component 111, the second display screen 109 can also enable the user to see the environmental scene on its back through the second display screen 109.

[0078] It is set that the two display surfaces of the second display screen 109 are respectively a first display surface and a second display surface, and it can be set that the light collection port of the second acquisition module 110 is located on the first display surface, that is, the image acquisition direction of the second acquisition module 110 is the same as the orientation of the first display surface. In Figures 6 - 8 In the manner shown, the connection structure between the third connection component 111 and the first connection component 105 is a port pluggable structure that can be inserted in both positive and negative directions. That is to say, when the first display surface of the second display screen 109 faces the free side 104, the third connection component 111 can be plugged into the first connection component 105, or when the second display surface faces the free side 104, the third connection component 111 can be plugged into the first connection component 105. Therefore, in this manner, when the second display screen 109 is plugged into the main body 102, the plugging direction of the second display screen 109 can be adjusted so that the second acquisition module 110 faces the free side 104 or deviates from the free side.

[0079] If the second acquisition module 110 faces the free side 104, the second acquisition module 110 can be used as the front camera of the electronic device to acquire images facing the free side. If the second acquisition module 110 deviates from the free side 104, the second acquisition module 110 can be used as the rear camera of the electronic device to acquire images deviating from the free side. In a conventional laptop computer, the display screen generally only has a front camera and cannot realize image acquisition of the back environment.

[0080] The second display screen 109 includes two partial areas. The first partial area includes a transparent display screen, and the second partial area can be used as a connection and support part for the transparent display screen. The second partial area may include a third connection component 111 and a second acquisition module 110. A controller can be built into the second partial area. Based on this controller, the second display screen 109 can be independently used as a tablet computer; a Magic Bay 3.0 interface can also be reserved at the bottom as the third connection component 111 for connecting to the main body 102 or the first display screen 106.

[0081] Reference Figure 9 and Figure 10 , Figure 9 FIG. is a schematic diagram of the principle of detachable connection between a display component and a main body in another electronic device provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 10 is Figure 9 a schematic structural diagram of the two display screens and the main body of the electronic device shown after being plugged and assembled. On the basis of other implementation manners, Figure 9 and Figure 10 in the electronic device shown, the display component 100 includes a first display screen 106 and a second display screen 109. In this way, on the side where the first display screen 106 is provided with the first acquisition module 107, a fourth connection component 112 is further provided; the third connection component 111 can also be used for pluggable connection with the fourth connection component 112.

[0082] A Magic Bay 3.0 interface or other type of interface can be reserved at the top of the first display screen 106 as the fourth connection component 112. The fourth connection component 112 can be used for connecting and fixing the second display screen 109 to realize electrical connection and signal interaction between the two display screens.

[0083] When the first display screen 106 and the main body 102 are plugged through the first connection component 105 and the second connection component 108, and the second display screen 109 and the first display screen 106 are plugged through the third connection component 111 and the fourth connection component 112, the first display screen 106 is a non-transparent screen with single-sided display, and its display surface faces the free side 104, and the corresponding first acquisition module 107 faces the free side 104.

[0084] In one implementation manner, when the first display screen 106 and the main body 102 are plugged, and the second display screen 109 and the first display screen 106 are plugged, the first display screen 106 and the second display screen 109 are connected to meet the coplanar condition, that is, they are located in the same plane or approximately in the same plane, as shown in Figure 10 shown, it can be set that the acquisition directions of the first acquisition module 107 and the second acquisition module 110 are opposite. For the second display screen 109 that can perform double-sided display, its second acquisition module 110 can be as shown in Figure 10Deviating from the free side 104 as shown, Figure 10 In the figure, the second acquisition module 110 deviating from the free side 104 is represented by a dashed circle. At this time, the first acquisition module 107 can be used as a front camera, and the second acquisition module 110 can be used as a rear camera.

[0085] The second display screen 109 can include a transparent display screen. As described above, the second acquisition module 110 can be a retractable structure and can move outside the second display screen 109 to serve as an external camera. The first display screen 106 can include an OLED screen. The first acquisition module 107 is an in-built camera disposed inside the fourth connection component 112. In Figure 1 In the manner shown, the external camera in the second display screen 109 can be linked with the in-built camera in the first display screen 106, and the two can serve as a front camera and a rear camera respectively. This method can fuse the acquisition results of the front camera and the rear camera, and the method of fusing dual cameras can better support the conference scenario. Optionally, when the first display screen 106 and the second display screen 109 are connected to meet the coplanar condition, the first display screen 106 is perpendicular to the body 102 when disposed on the connection side 103, that is, perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the body 102. At this time, the two display screens are coplanar, and the plane where they are located is perpendicular to the body 102. In other ways, the included angle between the plane where they are located and the body 102 can also be set to be greater than 0° and less than 180°.

[0086] When the two display screens are Figure 10 plugged and assembled in the manner shown, since the image acquisition modules of the two have different orientations, the electronic device can have both a front camera and a rear camera at the same time. The electronic device can not only acquire images of the environment in front of the device, but also acquire images of the environment behind the device.

[0087] In one embodiment, when the first display screen 106 and the second display screen 109 are connected to meet the coplanar condition, one of the first acquisition module 107 and the second acquisition module 110 is set to be able to acquire images deviating from the free side 104.

[0088] Refer to Figure 11 , Figure 11 which is a schematic structural diagram of a display component and a body of an electronic device provided by an embodiment of the present application after being plugged and assembled. Different from the Figure 10 manner shown, Figure 11 in the electronic device in the manner shown, the second acquisition module 110 faces the free side 104. Figure 11 In the figure, the second acquisition module 110 facing the free side 104 is represented by a solid circle.

[0089] When the two display screens are Figure 11When plugging and assembling in the manner shown, since the image acquisition modules of both face the free side and are front cameras, this way can enable the electronic device to have multiple front cameras, and a camera array can be formed by multiple acquisition modules. Image compensation or fusion and superposition can be performed on the images acquired by the multiple acquisition modules in the camera array, which can improve the image quality of the front imaging of the electronic device.

[0090] Optionally, the first display screen 106 can be an OLED screen or an LCD screen. The second connection component 108 at the bottom and the fourth connection component 112 at the top can both include Magic Bay 3.0 interfaces. The fourth connection component 112 can also include a magnet holder (Magnet holder). When the second display screen 109 and the first display screen 106 are plugged together, the magnet holder is used to improve the connection stability and reliability of the second display screen 109, and the fourth connection component 112 can be used to communicate with the second display screen 109.

[0091] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the first connection component 105 to the fourth connection component 112 are not limited to using Magic Bay 3.0 interfaces, and other types of peripheral interfaces can also be used. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the interface types used by the connection components.

[0092] Reference Figure 12 , Figure 12 is a circuit structure inside the body of an electronic device provided by an embodiment of the present application. On the basis of other implementation manners, Figure 12 In the manner shown, the body 102 further includes: an identification member 113 connected to the first connection component 105, and the identification member 113 can obtain identification information through the first connection component 105; a control circuit 114 connected to the identification member 113 and the first connection component 105 respectively. The control circuit 114 can control the working state of the display component 100 based on the identification information collected by the identification member 113.

[0093] Optionally, the identification member 113 is a chip capable of ID identification inside the body 102.

[0094] The control circuit 114 can judge the plugging state of the display screen based on the ID information or the input voltage of the plugged-in display screen. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the identification scheme of the display screen on the body 102.

[0095] Optionally, the control circuit 114 includes a hardware platform and a software system installed in the hardware platform. Among them, the hardware platform can be an X86 platform, and the software system can be a Windows OS system. In the embodiments of the present application, the hardware platform and the software system can be selected according to requirements to construct the control circuit 114, and the types corresponding to the hardware platform and the software system are not limited.

[0096] If the second connection component 108 is plugged into the first connection component 105 and the third connection component 111 is not plugged into the fourth connection component 112, the recognition member 113 obtains the first recognition information; if the third connection component 111 is plugged into the first connection component 105, the recognition member 113 obtains the second recognition information; if the second connection component 108 is plugged into the first connection component 105 and the third connection component 111 is plugged into the fourth connection component 112, the recognition member 113 obtains the third recognition information.

[0097] Therefore, the recognition information can characterize the plugging state of the display component 100 and the body 102. If the control circuit 114 obtains the first recognition information based on the recognition member 113, it indicates that the current first display screen 106 is plugged into the body 102 and the second display screen 109 is not plugged into the first display screen 106. If the control circuit 114 obtains the second recognition information based on the recognition member 113, it indicates that the current second display screen 109 is plugged into the body 102. If the control circuit obtains the third recognition information based on the recognition member 113, it indicates that the current first display screen 106 is plugged into the body 102 and the second display screen 109 is plugged into the first display screen 106.

[0098] Reference Figure 13 , Figure 13 is the circuit structure inside the body of another electronic device provided by the embodiments of the present application. On the basis of other implementation manners, Figure 13 In the manner shown, the control circuit 114 includes a first control module and a second control module, and the first control module and the second control module are respectively connected to the first connection component 105.

[0099] If one of the first display screen 106 and the second display screen 109 is plugged into the body 102 based on the first connection component 105, the control circuit 114 controls the working state of the display screen plugged into the body 102 based on the first control module. At this time, the control circuit 114 can determine whether it is the first display screen 106 or the second display screen 109 that the first connection component 105 is plugged into the body 102 based on the current recognition information. If the first display screen 106 is plugged into the body 102, the first control module is used to control the working state of the first display screen 106 through the first display driving method. If the second display screen 109 is plugged into the body 102, the first control module is used to control the working state of the second display screen 109 through the second display driving method.

[0100] If the first display screen 106 is plugged into the main body 102 based on the first connection component 105, and the second display screen 109 is plugged into the first display screen 106, the control circuit 114 controls the working states of the first display screen 106 and the second display screen 109 based on the second control module. At this time, the control circuit 114 can determine that the first display screen 106 is plugged into the main body 102 based on the current recognition information, and the second display screen 109 is plugged into the first display screen 106. The second control module is used to control the working state of the second display screen 109 through the third display driving method.

[0101] Among them, the first display driving method is applicable to non-transparent screens and can be the default non-transparent screen display driving method set by the software system. The first display driving method can adopt the existing display driving schemes for non-transparent screens.

[0102] The second display driving method is applicable to transparent screens and can be the transparent screen display driving method when the transparent screen is displayed alone preset by the software system. The second display driving method is used to adjust the background of the software system to black and to adjust the background of the software to a dark color, so as to enhance the display contrast and clarity of the transparent screen through the brightness and color contrast between the displayed content and the background.

[0103] The third display driving method is applicable to transparent screens and is different from the second display driving method. The third display driving method is the transparent screen display driving method preset by the software system when the transparent screen and the non-transparent screen are displayed simultaneously. The third display driving method is used to automatically adjust the display parameters of the transparent screen to be the same as those of the non-transparent screen, so that when the two screens are displayed simultaneously, the attention can be switched naturally, avoiding the visual burden caused by the difference in the display effects of the two display screens and reducing visual fatigue.

[0104] Reference Figure 14 and Figure 15 , Figure 14 is a schematic structural diagram when the main body is plugged with the first display screen, Figure 15 is Figure 14 a schematic structural diagram of the electronic device shown with a stacked second display screen plugged on the first display screen. On the basis of other embodiments, in the Figure 14 shown manner, the fourth connection component 112 includes a movable member 115. As Figure 15 shown, when the third connection component 111 is plugged into the fourth connection component 112, the movable member 115 can at least adjust the relative angle between the first display screen 106 and the second display screen 109. Based on this, by rotating the movable member 115, the second display screen 109 can be covered on the display side of the first display screen 106, so that the two display screens are stacked.

[0105] The movable member 115 is located at the top of the display surface of the first display screen 106 and is used to carry the second display screen 109. The movable member 115 can be an integral structure or two separate support structures.

[0106] Reference Figure 16 , Figure 16 is a sectional view of the main body in an electronic device provided by an embodiment of the present application, and this sectional view is perpendicular to the length direction of the free side 104 and the connection side 103. On the basis of other embodiments, Figure 16 In the electronic device shown, the first connection component 105 includes a support member 116 that can rotate relative to the connection side 103 of the main body 102, and the display component 100 can be connected to the first connection component 105 based on the support member 116. In this way, based on the rotatable support member 116, the included angle between the display component 100 and the main body 102 can be adjusted.

[0107] When the display component 100 includes the first display screen 106 and the second display screen 109, the first display screen 106 is a non-transparent screen that can display unidirectionally, and the second display screen 109 is a transparent screen that can display bidirectionally. The usage modes of the electronic device include:

[0108] The first usage mode, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown in the non-transparent screen notebook mode. In this mode, the non-transparent screen is plugged into the main body 102. When the software system recognizes the recognition information that the non-transparent screen is plugged into the main body 102, it directly controls the non-transparent screen to display an image based on the first display driving method.

[0109] The second usage mode, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown in the transparent screen notebook mode. In this mode, the transparent screen is plugged into the main body 102. When the software system recognizes the recognition information that the transparent screen is plugged into the main body 102, it directly controls the transparent screen to display an image based on the second display driving method, and can automatically adjust the software system and the backgrounds of common office applications to black (black can be directly displayed as a transparent effect). At the same time, based on the environment and the content being displayed, it automatically adjusts the brightness of the screen to provide the best usage effect for the user.

[0110] The third usage mode, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11In the dual-screen extended mode shown, based on the non-transparent screen laptop mode, the transparent screen is plugged into the non-transparent screen. When the software system recognizes that the fourth connection component 112 is plugged with a transparent screen, the transparent screen is restored from the ultra-low power mode (standby mode) to the normal working mode. The transparent screen and the non-transparent screen are automatically adjusted to the same brightness in terms of visual effect. Based on different device IDs, the software system automatically switches the transparent screen to a black background and keeps the non-transparent screen in its original display style. The transparent screen and the non-transparent screen can be used for copying or as an extended screen, and they can also be combined into a large-size screen for use. In this usage mode, if the collection directions of the first collection module 107 and the second collection module 110 are opposite, the two collection modules can be linked and used as a front camera and a rear camera respectively to collect images simultaneously and perform image fusion, which can better support the meeting scenario.

[0111] The fourth usage mode is as Figure 15 shown in the personalized display mode. In this usage mode, after the second display screen 109 is plugged on top of the first display screen 106, rotate the second display screen 109 so that its display side surface is stacked with that of the first display screen 106. When the software system recognizes that the movable part 115 serving as a rotating shaft rotates, it can automatically flip the display content of the transparent screen. During work, the user can display some dynamic videos or pictures on the transparent screen as a personalized decoration, or it can also be set to support the display of the transparent screen in the ultra-low power mode of the laptop. In this way, the transparent screen can also be folded and covered on the display surface of the first display screen 106 so that the two display screens can be combined for 3D display, etc., or the transparent screen can be folded on the non-display surface of the first display screen 106, and two-way display can be performed based on the tent mode. This way can achieve the combined display effect of the transparent screen and the non-transparent screen.

[0112] When the images displayed on the second display screen 109 and the first display screen 106 are stacked and combined for 3D display, the second display screen 109 is a transparent screen, and the first display screen 106 can be a non-transparent screen. For example, the first display screen 106 can be an OLED screen.

[0113] The OLED screen itself has advantages such as self-luminescence, high contrast ratio, and high refresh rate, providing a good foundation for realizing 3D display. The transparent screen can maintain a certain transparency while displaying images, making the 3D display effect more unique and innovative in some special scenarios. By combining the display effects of the OLED screen and the transparent screen and adopting methods such as time-division multiplexing active shutter type, polarization light-based, and naked-eye 3D technology-based methods, 3D display effects can be achieved through the combined display of the OLED screen and the transparent screen. The specific principle is as follows:

[0114] Time-division multiplexing active shutter type: Utilize the high refresh rate of the OLED screen to alternately display left and right eye images. At the same time, cooperate with the active shutter 3D glasses, and control the opening and closing of the glasses lenses through a signal synchronized with the screen, so that the left and right eyes can respectively see the corresponding images, and form a 3D vision after being fused by the brain.

[0115] Based on polarized light: Add a polarizing light sheet in front of the transparent screen, display the left and right eye images with polarized light in different directions. The audience wears polarized light glasses, and the left and right lenses respectively allow polarized light in the corresponding directions to pass through, thus achieving the 3D effect.

[0116] Based on naked-eye 3D technology: Integrate structures such as a microlens array or a parallax barrier on the transparent screen. The microlens array redistributes light rays at different angles, enabling the audience to receive different left and right eye images at different positions; the parallax barrier allows the left and right eyes to see different images by blocking some light rays, achieving naked-eye 3D display.

[0117] The fifth mode, on the basis of the non-transparent screen notebook mode shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 The transparent screen is used as a separate tablet computer. The three main usage scenarios in this usage mode include: 1) The transparent screen can be used as a drawing board. Place a drawing under the transparent screen, and the user can copy it according to the drawing, which can greatly speed up the drawing speed. Or place an uncolored drawing under the transparent screen, see the drawing through the transparent screen, draw with different colors on the transparent screen, and select the optimal solution. The drawing completed on the transparent screen can be directly transmitted to the software system in the main body 102, and the user can use the drawing software in the software system to modify it; 2) The camera on the transparent screen can be used to take pictures of the indoor environment, place some virtual furniture, and then enlarge it in proportion to compare with the actual indoor effect, which can quickly help interior designers complete the design and better present the design plan to users; 3) Equipment repair confirmation. The transparent screen can directly call the drawings on the software system in the main body 102, compare them with the on-site problems, and find out the specific problems for repair.

[0118] Conventional transparent screen laptops only use a single transparent screen as the display component. Although the display effect of the transparent screen laptop is cool, it is limited by the technical limitations of the transparent screen, and the overall display effect is poor. At present, for commonly used transparent screens, the OLED transparent screen has large black borders around it, the light transmittance is less than 40 degrees, the PPI is less than 100, and the overall display granularity is very obvious; although the Micro-LED transparent screen can achieve a borderless, high-brightness and high-contrast design, the highest screen resolution can only reach 720, and its PPI is also less than 100. Limited by the above-mentioned many problems of the transparent screen, it affects the user experience of the transparent laptop.

[0119] In view of the above problems, the embodiments of the present application can, through the complementary display of the non-transparent screen and the transparent screen, not only enable the electronic device to have more usage modes, but also improve the overall display performance of the electronic device, enabling users to experience more technological and personalized innovative products. At the same time, the electronic device can also improve the design efficiency of users when using the electronic device based on the collaborative work of the non-transparent screen and the transparent screen. Users can select different usage modes according to different usage scenarios. The electronic device not only has a cool design but also has good practicability.

[0120] Based on the electronic device provided in the above embodiment, another embodiment of the present application further provides a control method for the electronic device. This control method is used for the electronic device provided in the above embodiment and can be executed by the control circuit 114 in the electronic device. This control method can be as Figure 17 shown.

[0121] Refer to Figure 17 , Figure 17 which is a schematic flowchart of a control method for an electronic device provided by an embodiment of the present application, including:

[0122] Step S11: Obtain the connection state between the body 102 and the display component 100. The body 102 has a connection side 103 and a free side 104 that are oppositely arranged.

[0123] Step S12: Obtain identification information based on the first connection component 105 on the connection side 103; the identification information is related to the display identification information in the display component 100.

[0124] Step S13: Based on the identification information, control the working state of the display component 100 so that the acquisition module 101 can acquire an image facing away from the free side 104.

[0125] Among them, the display component 100 includes a first display screen 106 that can display unidirectionally and / or a second display screen 109 that can display bidirectionally; both the first display screen 106 and the second display screen 109 can be plugged into the body 102 through the first connection component 105; the second display screen 109 can also be plugged into the side of the first display screen 106 facing away from the body 102 when the first display screen 106 is plugged into the body 102 through the first connection component 105.

[0126] In step S13, based on the identification information, controlling the working state of the display component 100 includes:

[0127] If the identification information indicates that the first display screen 106 is connected to the first connection component 105, control the first display screen 106 to display an image based on the first display driving method adapted to the first display screen 106;

[0128] If the identification information indicates that the second display screen 109 is connected to the first connection component 105, control the second display screen 109 to perform image display based on a second display driving method adapted to the second display screen 109; the second display driving method can make the background color of the application program displayed on the second display screen 109 have a set gray level, and the set gray level can be a dark color with a gray level greater than a set threshold, and the threshold can be set according to requirements;

[0129] After controlling the first display screen 106 to perform image display based on the first display driving method, it further includes:

[0130] If the second display screen 109 is plugged into the first display screen 106, control the second display screen 109 to perform image display based on a third display driving method; the third display driving method can make the display parameters of the second display screen 109 and the first display screen 106 consistent.

[0131] The control method provided by the embodiments of the present application has the same or similar technical effects as the electronic device provided by the above embodiments, and will not be elaborated here.

[0132] Next, taking the first display screen 106 as a non-transparent OLED screen and the second display screen 109 as a transparent screen, and combining different boot modes of the electronic device, the working process of the electronic device will be further described.

[0133] Refer to Figure 18 , Figure 18 which is a working flow chart of an electronic device provided by the embodiments of the present application. In this boot mode, the main body 102 as the host does not determine the states of each display screen before booting. At this time, the working process of the electronic device includes:

[0134] After the main body 102 as the host boots, the system automatically detects whether a display component 100 is connected to the first connection component 105. If not, further determine whether a third-party display is externally connected to the system (judged based on the connection status of the set USB or HDMI interface). If a third-party display is connected, the main body 102 outputs the display through the third-party display. On the contrary, after a set time (such as greater than 2 minutes), the main body 102 enters a power-saving sleep mode.

[0135] If it is determined that the first connection component 105 is connected to the display component 100, by identifying the ID of the display component 100, it is further determined whether the currently connected display of the first connection component 105 is a transparent screen or an OLED screen. If it is determined that the currently connected display of the first connection component 105 is a transparent screen, based on the second display driving method, the background of the software system is adjusted to black, and the background of the application software is adjusted to a dark color. If it is determined that the currently connected display of the first connection component 105 is an OLED screen, after controlling the OLED screen to display based on the first display driving method, it is determined whether the fourth connection component 112 is connected to a transparent screen. If not, after a set time, the fourth connection component 112 enters a power-saving sleep mode.

[0136] If the fourth connection component 112 is connected to a transparent screen, based on the third display driving method, the display parameters of the transparent screen are automatically adjusted to be the same as those of the OLED screen. After defaulting to the dual-screen extended usage mode, the user instruction is obtained to adjust the display mode, so that the user can set the dual screens to be the same-screen display, or split-screen display, or waterfall-screen display, etc. according to different scenario requirements. If the user rotates the transparent screen so that the transparent screen covers the display side of the OLED screen, after flipping the display of the transparent screen, it is determined whether the two display screens work simultaneously.

[0137] If the two display screens do not work simultaneously, the transparent screen can be controlled to enter the tablet mode. If the two display screens work simultaneously, the transparent screen enters the customized single-sided display mode, and the surface of the transparent screen facing away from the OLED screen is used for display. The user can manually set the display state of the transparent screen, such as manually setting dynamic videos, pictures, as well as static pictures and texts. Then it can be determined whether the transparent screen is unplugged.

[0138] If it is determined that the transparent screen is not unplugged, after adjusting the display parameters of the transparent screen to be the same as those of the OLED screen, the subsequent process is repeated. If it is determined that the transparent screen is unplugged, after a set time, the fourth connection component 112 enters a power-saving sleep mode.

[0139] Reference Figure 19 , Figure 19 is the flowchart of the operation of another electronic device provided by the embodiment of the present application. Before power-on, the main body 102 as the host determines that the OLED screen is plugged into the main body 102 and the transparent screen is not plugged into the OLED screen. At this time, the operation process of the electronic device includes:

[0140] After the main body 102 as the host is powered on, the system automatically detects whether the transparent screen transmits data. If not, after a set time, the transparent screen enters a power-saving sleep mode. If so, the system determines whether the transparent screen starts the drawing function.

[0141] If it is determined that the transparent screen does not start the drawing function, the engineering detection software is started on the transparent screen, and data interaction (such as drawing comparison, etc.) is performed between the transparent screen and the main body 102.

[0142] If it is determined that the transparent screen starts the drawing function, the main body 102 is wirelessly connected to the transparent screen (such as WIFI or Bluetooth connection), the software system turns on the drawing software, and the image drawn on the transparent screen is directly input into the drawing software of the main body 102.
