AI Technical Summary
There is a need to improve control mechanisms for devices with flexible displays, such as foldable or rollable devices, to efficiently manage the transition between closed and open configurations and to facilitate quick access to relevant applications or modes based on how the device is opened.
The apparatus includes moveable portions that determine the sequence and action based on the movement of these portions between configurations, using sensors to detect how the device is opened, allowing for efficient transition to specific operation modes or applications.
This approach enables efficient control of devices with flexible displays, allowing users to directly access desired modes or applications without navigating menus, while protecting privacy and providing intuitive operation.
