[0001] The present disclosure relates to an electronic device and a method for controlling the same, and more specifically, to an electronic device and a method for controlling the same that provides a color correction function for a colorblind user.

[0002] Recently, various color correction technologies have been provided to improve display quality. Meanwhile, individuals with color blindness may experience difficulties in acquiring information because they perceive the colors of content displayed differently from the general population. However, if all colors in an electronic device providing information were uniformly corrected, it could cause aesthetic issues and lead to problems with the device's usability.

[0003] Meanwhile, the information described above may be provided as related art for the purpose of aiding understanding of the present disclosure. No claim or determination is made as to whether any of the foregoing may be applied as prior art related to the present disclosure.

[0004] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an electronic device comprises: a display; a memory for storing instructions; and at least one processor. When the instructions are executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, the electronic device identifies whether color correction for a plurality of objects is required for a colorblind user based on information regarding a plurality of objects included on an application execution screen. If it is identified that color correction for the plurality of objects is required, the device provides a UI for color correction for the plurality of objects on the display and corrects the colors of the plurality of objects according to user input entered through the UI.

[0005] When the above instructions are executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, the electronic device may identify whether there exist a plurality of objects among the objects included on the execution screen of the application, wherein at least one of the size and shape has a similarity within a critical range.

[0006] When the above instructions are executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, the electronic device may analyze the colors of the plurality of objects having similarity within the threshold range to identify whether color correction is required for the plurality of objects.

[0007] When the above instructions are executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, the electronic device may identify that color correction is required for the at least two objects if it is identified that the colors of the at least two objects are different colors that are different to a general user or colors that appear indistinguishable to a colorblind user.

[0010] When the above instructions are executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, if the electronic device is configured to perform color correction for the application, it may provide an indicator on the display indicating whether color correction has been performed on an icon corresponding to the application.

[0011] When the above instructions are executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, the electronic device may perform color correction on the entire execution screen of the application when the ratio occupied by the plurality of objects within the execution screen of the application is greater than or equal to a threshold value.

[0012] When the above instructions are executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, the electronic device provides a UI on the display that includes a UI element for selecting whether to perform color correction for an object included in the preset area when a user input selecting a preset area is received while the execution screen of the application is provided, and when a user input to perform color correction for an object included in the preset area is received through the UI, the device can identify whether color correction for the object is required for a colorblind user based on information about the object included in the preset area.

[0013] When the above instructions are executed individually or collectively by the at least one processor, the electronic device may identify whether color correction is required for the plurality of objects based on information regarding the plurality of objects, whether the type of the plurality of objects is a specified type of object, or whether the type of content containing the plurality of objects is a specified type of content.

[0014] A control method for an electronic device according to one embodiment of the present disclosure comprises: a step of identifying whether color correction for a plurality of objects is required for a colorblind user based on information regarding a plurality of objects included on an application execution screen; a step of providing a UI for color correction for the plurality of objects when it is identified that color correction for the plurality of objects is required; and a step of correcting the colors of the plurality of objects according to user input entered through the UI.

[0015] The above identifying step can identify whether there exist a plurality of objects among the objects included on the execution screen of the application that have similarity within a threshold range in at least one of their size and shape.

[0016] The above identifying step can identify whether color correction is required for the plurality of objects by analyzing the colors of the plurality of objects when there are a plurality of objects having similarity within the threshold range.

[0017] In the above identification step, if the colors of the at least two objects are identified as different colors that are distinct to a general user or colors that appear indistinguishable to a colorblind user, color correction for the at least two objects may be required.

[0018] The above UI includes a first UI element capable of adjusting the color correction intensity, and the correction step can correct the color of the plurality of objects by adjusting the color correction intensity according to user input received through the first UI element.

[0019] The above UI includes a second UI element for setting whether to perform color correction for the application, and the control method may include the step of storing information regarding the color correction by matching it with information regarding the application when it is set to perform color correction for the application through the second UI element.

[0020] The above control method may include the step of providing an indicator indicating whether color correction is performed on an icon corresponding to the application when color correction for the application is set to be performed.

[0021] The above correction step may perform color correction on the entire execution screen of the application when the ratio occupied by the plurality of objects within the execution screen of the application is greater than or equal to a threshold value.

[0022] The above control method includes the step of providing a UI including a UI element for selecting whether to perform color correction for an object included in the preset area when a user input selecting a preset area is received while the execution screen of the application is provided; and the identifying step is such that when a user input to perform color correction for an object included in the preset area is received through the UI, the user can identify whether color correction for an object is required for a colorblind user based on information about the object included in the preset area.

[0023] The above identifying step can identify whether color correction is required for the plurality of objects based on whether the type of the plurality of objects is a pre-specified type of object or whether the type of content including the plurality of objects is a pre-specified type of content, based on information regarding the plurality of objects.

The first display (135) may be implemented as a foldable flexible display. For example, the first display (135) may be disposed across the hinge housing (167) from the first housing (165) to the second housing (166). In the following, the angle between the first housing (165) and the second housing (166) may correspond to the angle between one side of the first housing (165) and one side of the second housing (166) on which the first display (135) is disposed, which can be folded by the folding axis of the hinge housing (167). The state of the electronic device (103) in which the above angle is substantially flat (e.g., about 180 degrees) may be referred to as a fully unfolded state, an open state, an unfolded state, a flat state, and / or a planar state. In the above state, the first display (135) positioned from the first housing (165) to the second housing (166) may have a substantially flat shape. In the above state, a single plane may be formed on the front surface of the electronic device (103) in which the first display (135) is positioned.

[0081] For example, the state of the electronic device (103) in which the angle between the first housing (165) and the second housing (166) is substantially 0 degrees may be referred to as a fully folded state, a folded state, and / or a closed state. In the above state, the first display (135) may be completely visually obscured by the first housing (165) and the second housing (166). For example, in the above state, the size of the first display (135) of the electronic device (103) exposed to the outside may be substantially 0.

[0082] For example, the electronic device (103) may include a second display (136) positioned on the rear of a second housing (166) opposite to the front where the first display (135) is positioned. The second display (136) may be implemented as an electronic ink display.

[0083] In one embodiment, the electronic device (103) illustrated in FIG. 2c may be referred to as a third type of electronic device (103). The third type of electronic device (103) may refer to an electronic device (103) in which a first housing (165) and a second housing (166) are rotatably combined to the left and right around a hinge housing (167).

[0084] According to one example, the electronic device (100) illustrated in FIG. 1 may be implemented as at least one of the first to third forms of electronic devices (101, 102, 103) illustrated in FIG. 2a to 2c. The first display (130-1) and the second display (130-2) included in the electronic device (100) illustrated in FIG. 1 may be implemented as the first display (131, 133, 135) and the second display (132, 134, 136) included in the first to third forms of electronic devices (101, 102, 103) illustrated in FIG. 2a to 2c.

[0085] FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a control method for an electronic device providing a color correction function according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0086] In the following embodiments, each operation may be performed sequentially, but is not necessarily performed sequentially. For example, the order of each operation may be changed, and at least two operations may be performed in parallel.

[0087] According to one or more embodiments, S310 to S370 may be understood to be performed in a processor (e.g., processor (110) of FIG. 1) of an electronic device (e.g., electronic device (100) of FIG. 1).

[0088] In one or more embodiments, the electronic device (100) can obtain information about a plurality of objects included on the execution screen of an application (S310).

[0089] First, the electronic device (100) can obtain information about a colorblind user based on user input. Here, a colorblind user is a user whose ability to distinguish colors is weaker than that of a general user, and there may be types such as green-red colorblindness (green vision or worse), red-green colorblindness (red vision or worse), and blue-yellow colorblindness (blue vision or worse). Here, colorblind users may also include colorblind users. Information about the colorblind user may include information about whether the user has colorblindness and the type of colorblindness.

[0090] After the application is executed, the electronic device (100) can obtain information about a plurality of objects included on the execution screen of the application. Here, the information about the plurality of objects may include information about at least one of the type, size, shape, location, and color of the plurality of objects.

[0091] The electronic device (100) can identify whether color correction is required for a colorblind user for a plurality of objects (S320). In one or more embodiments, the electronic device (100) can identify whether color correction is required for a plurality of objects based on the size, shape, and color of the objects. This will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 4.

[0092] FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for identifying whether color correction is required, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0093] In the following embodiments, each operation may be performed sequentially, but is not necessarily performed sequentially. For example, the order of each operation may be changed, and at least two operations may be performed in parallel.

[0094] According to one or more embodiments, S410 to S460 may be understood to be performed in a processor (e.g., processor (110) of FIG. 1) of an electronic device (e.g., electronic device (100) of FIG. 1).

[0095] In one or more embodiments, the electronic device (100) can obtain information about an object (S410). Specifically, the electronic device (100) can obtain information about the size, shape, and color of the object.

[0096] The electronic device (100) can identify whether there are multiple objects among the objects included in the execution screen of the application that have similarity within a threshold range in at least one of their size and shape (S420). That is, the electronic device (100) can identify whether there are multiple objects of similar size or similar shape within the execution screen of the application. For example, the electronic device (100) can identify multiple objects (510-1, 510-2) that have the same size and shape (or similarity within a threshold range), as shown in FIG. 5a.

[0097] If it is identified that there are multiple objects having similarity within a critical range in at least one of size and shape (S420-Y), the electronic device (100) can analyze the colors of the multiple objects (S430). Specifically, the electronic device (100) can analyze color histogram information for multiple objects included in the execution screen of an application. Here, the color histogram is a graph representing the distribution of colors included in the object, where the X-axis represents color values ​​and the Y-axis represents the number of pixels.

[0098] The electronic device (100) can identify whether the colors of a plurality of objects are different colors that are different to a normal user or colors that appear indistinguishable to a colorblind user (S440). The electronic device (100) can identify whether the colors of a plurality of objects are different colors to a normal user or colors that appear indistinguishable to a colorblind user based on information about a colorblind user. Specifically, the electronic device (100) can acquire color histograms of a plurality of objects and convert the color histograms into color histograms corresponding to colorblind users based on information about colorblind users. Then, the electronic device (100) can compare the color similarity of objects visible to a normal user through the color histograms with the color similarity of objects visible to a colorblind user through the converted color histograms corresponding to colorblind users. Here, if there is a difference in the color similarity of objects seen by a normal user but no difference in the color similarity of objects seen by a colorblind user, the electronic device (100) can identify the colors of multiple objects as different colors that are different to a normal user or colors that appear indistinguishable to a colorblind user. For example, if the colorblind user has red-green colorblindness, the electronic device (100) can identify whether the colors of multiple objects include red and green. That is, the electronic device (100) can identify whether the first object among the multiple objects is red and the second object is green. As another example, if the colorblind user has blue-yellow colorblindness, the electronic device (100) can identify whether the colors of multiple objects include blue and yellow. That is, the electronic device (100) can identify whether the first object among the multiple objects is blue and the second object is yellow.

[0099] If the colors of multiple objects are identified as different colors that are distinct to a general user or colors that appear indistinguishable to a user with color blindness (S440-Y), the electronic device (100) may identify that color correction is required (S450). For example, if the first object (510-1) shown in FIG. 5a is red and the second object (510-2) is green, the electronic device (100) may identify that color correction is required by identifying that the colors are distinct to a general user or appear indistinguishable to a user with red-green color blindness. Meanwhile, the objects (510-1, 510-2) identified as requiring color correction may be provided (or displayed, output, etc.) in a manner distinct from other objects, as shown in FIG. 5a. For example, a dotted line indicator may be provided on the outer area of ​​the objects (510-1, 510-2) identified as requiring color correction. As another example, the electronic device (100) can provide feedback in which the outlines of the identified objects (510-1, 510-2) blink.

[0100] However, if the colors of multiple objects are identified as not being different colors that are different to a general user or colors that are not different to a colorblind user (S440-N), the electronic device (100) can identify that color correction is not required (S460).

[0101] Meanwhile, although the above-described embodiment explains that color correction is determined based on the size, shape, and color information of a plurality of objects, this is merely one embodiment, and color correction can be determined based on other information.

[0102] In one or more embodiments, the electronic device (100) can identify whether color correction is required for a plurality of objects based on the type of a plurality of objects. Specifically, the electronic device (100) can identify that color correction is required for a plurality of objects if the type of a plurality of objects is a predetermined type of object. For example, the electronic device (100) can identify objects related to safety and regulations (e.g., traffic lights, traffic signs, etc.), objects related to order (e.g., restroom male / female signs), and objects of interest set by a user (e.g., stock graphs, health information) as objects requiring color correction.

[0103] In one or more embodiments, the electronic device (100) can identify whether color correction of a plurality of objects is required based on the content type of a screen containing a plurality of objects. Specifically, the electronic device (100) can identify that color correction of a plurality of objects is required if the content type of a screen containing a plurality of objects is a predetermined type of content. For example, the electronic device (100) can identify that color correction of a plurality of objects is required if the content type of a screen containing a plurality of objects is identified as game content or sports content.

[0104] Referring again to FIG. 3, if it is identified that color correction is required (S330-Y), the electronic device (100) may provide a UI for color correction of multiple objects (S340). Specifically, if it is identified that color correction is required for multiple objects, the electronic device (100) may provide a first UI that asks the user whether to perform color correction. For example, as shown in FIG. 5a, the electronic device (100) may provide a first UI (520) (or guidance message) in one area of ​​the application screen that informs the user that it may be difficult to distinguish the colors of multiple objects (510-1, 510-2) and asks whether to perform color correction, saying, "There may be colors that are difficult to distinguish. Would you like to correct the colors?" However, providing the first UI (520) on the bottom area is merely one embodiment, and it may be provided in a pop-up form on the top area.

[0105] When user input for performing color correction on the first UI (520) is received (e.g., user input touching the first UI (520)), the electronic device (100) may provide a second UI for color correction of a plurality of objects. For example, the electronic device (100) may provide a second UI (530) for color correction of a plurality of objects (510-1, 510-2) as illustrated in FIG. 5b. Here, the second UI (530) may include a first UI element (530-1) for determining whether to color correct only in important areas, a second UI element (530-2) for determining color correction settings for an application, and a third UI element (530-3) for adjusting the color correction intensity. Here, the first and second UI elements (530-1, 530-2) may be implemented in the form of checkboxes. Additionally, the third UI element (530-3) can be implemented in the form of a progress bar. However, this is merely one example, and the third UI element (530-3) can be implemented in various forms, such as a dial-shaped UI element, a step indicator-shaped UI element, a gauge-shaped UI element, etc.

[0106] The electronic device (100) can correct the colors of multiple objects according to user input entered through the UI (S350). Specifically, the electronic device (100) can determine the correction intensity for multiple objects according to user input entered through the UI, and correct the colors of multiple objects according to the determined correction intensity. For example, the electronic device (100) can determine the correction intensity for the colors of multiple objects (510-1, 510-2) according to user input entered through the third UI element (530-3) in the form of a progress bar among the second UI (530) shown in FIG. 5b. As shown in FIG. 5c, when user input to set the highest intensity color correction is entered through the UI (540) of the progress bar, the electronic device (100) can correct the color of the first object (510-1). As illustrated in FIG. 5d, when user input is entered to set the lowest intensity color correction through the UI (540) of the progress bar, the electronic device (100) can correct the color of the second object (510-2). However, this is merely one example, and it is obvious that the colors of both the first and second objects (510-1, 510-2) can be corrected according to the correction intensity.

[0107] The electronic device (100) can store information about the application and information about color correction (S360). Specifically, after the color correction intensity is determined according to user input, when user input is received to store information about color correction as a setting of the application, the electronic device (100) can match and store information about the application and information about color correction (e.g., information about the color correction intensity). For example, after it is identified that color correction is required for a plurality of objects (610-1, 610-2), the electronic device (100) can provide a UI element (620) to provide a second UI on the bottom area of ​​the screen, as shown in FIG. 6a. And, when the electronic device (100) receives user input to provide a second UI on a UI element (620) (e.g., user input of touching the UI element (620) or dragging in a first direction), the electronic device (100) may provide a second UI element (630) including a plurality of UI elements (610-1, 610-2, 610-3) as shown in FIG. 6b. Here, when the second UI element (610-2) is selected, the electronic device (100) may match and store information about the application and information about color correction (e.g., information about color correction intensity, etc.).

[0108] In one or more embodiments, if the electronic device (100) is configured to match and save information about the application and information about the color correction after performing color correction for the application, the electronic device (100) may provide an indicator indicating whether color correction has been performed on an icon corresponding to the application. For example, as shown in FIG. 6c, the electronic device (100) may provide an indicator (640) indicating whether color correction has been performed on an icon corresponding to the application that is configured to perform color correction. Additionally, when the application configured to perform color correction is executed again, the electronic device (100) may not determine whether color correction has been performed and may provide a second UI element (620) for providing a second UI (630), as shown in FIG. 6d.

[0109] The electronic device (100) can restore color correction after the application is terminated (S370). That is, when the application is terminated, the electronic device (100) restores color correction and can provide an execution screen (or desktop) where color correction has not been performed.

[0110] Meanwhile, although the above-described embodiment explains that color correction is performed only on the area corresponding to a plurality of objects, this is merely one embodiment, and color correction can be performed on the entire area. Below, with reference to FIGS. 7 and FIGS. 8, a method for identifying whether color correction is required for the entire screen will be described.

[0111] FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a method for identifying whether color correction is required for the entire screen according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0112] In the following embodiments, each operation may be performed sequentially, but is not necessarily performed sequentially. For example, the order of each operation may be changed, and at least two operations may be performed in parallel.

[0113] According to one or more embodiments, S710 to S790 may be understood to be performed in a processor (e.g., processor (110) of FIG. 1) of an electronic device (e.g., electronic device (100) of FIG. 1).

[0114] In addition, since the description of S710 to S760 shown in FIG. 7 is identical to that of S410 to S460 shown in FIG. 4, the redundant description will be omitted.

[0115] In one or more embodiments, if it is identified that color correction is required (S750), the electronic device (100) can identify whether the screen (or area) occupied by a plurality of objects is greater than or equal to a preset value (S770). That is, the electronic device (100) can identify whether the area occupied by a plurality of objects in the entire screen is greater than or equal to a preset value (e.g., 80%).

[0116] When the screen occupied by multiple objects is greater than a preset value (S770-Y), the electronic device (100) can identify that it is performing color correction on the entire screen (S780). For example, as shown in FIG. 8, when the area (810) occupied by multiple objects occupies 80% or more of the entire screen, the electronic device (100) can identify that it is performing color correction on the entire screen and can provide a first UI (820) to guide the color correction.

[0117] When the screen occupied by multiple objects is less than a preset value (S770-N), the electronic device (100) can be identified as performing color correction on the area corresponding to the multiple objects (S790). That is, as described in FIGS. 3 to 6d, the electronic device (100) can be identified as performing color correction on the area corresponding to the multiple objects within the entire screen.

[0118] Meanwhile, although the above-described embodiment explains that color correction is performed by identifying multiple objects satisfying preset conditions within the entire screen, this is merely one embodiment, and color correction can be performed on objects included in an area selected by the user.

[0119] FIGS. 9a to 9g are drawings for illustrating an embodiment of providing a color correction function by selecting a portion of an application according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0120] Specifically, while an image-related application (e.g., a gallery application) is running, the electronic device (100) can provide a UI (910) that provides image-related functions, as illustrated in FIG. 9a.

[0121] When a UI (910) providing image-related functions is selected (or touched), the electronic device (100) may provide a UI (920) containing multiple items related to the image, as illustrated in FIG. 9b. The UI element (920) may include an item (920-1) for color correction.

[0122] When an item (920-1) for color correction is selected, the electronic device (100) may provide a UI element (930-1) for selecting a color correction area, as shown in FIG. 9c. Here, the UI element (930-1) may be in the shape of a pencil, as shown in FIG. 9c, but is not limited thereto.

[0123] When user input is received in which a pencil shape is touched and dragged over an area of ​​an image, the electronic device (100) can identify the area (930) selected by the drag, as shown in FIG. 9c. When the area (930) is selected, the electronic device (100) can provide a UI (940) including a progress bar for color correction, as shown in FIG. 9d.

[0124] When a user input is received to select a correction intensity through a progress (950) after selecting a UI (940), the electronic device (100) can perform color correction on the selected area (930) as illustrated in FIG. 9e. Then, when a user command to save information about the color correction is entered, the electronic device (100) can save the information about the set color correction by matching it to an application.

[0125] And, when the application is executed again later, the electronic device (100) may provide a UI element (970) for displaying a UI (940) after an area (960) is selected according to user input, as illustrated in FIG. 9f. And, when user input is received to select or drag the UI element (970), the electronic device (100) may provide a UI (940) capable of adjusting the color correction intensity, as illustrated in FIG. 9g, and may adjust the color correction intensity for the selected area (960) through the UI (940).

[0126] Meanwhile, although the above-described embodiment was explained as having a form factor in which the electronic device (100) does not fold, this is merely one embodiment, and the electronic device (100) can be implemented as a fold form factor in which it folds one or more times. This will be explained with reference to FIGS. 10a to 12c.

[0127] FIGS. 10a and FIGS. 10b are drawings illustrating examples of various states of an electronic device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIGS. 10a and FIGS. 10b, the electronic device (1000) may include a housing structure (1001), a flexible display (1040) (which may correspond to the first display (130-1) disclosed in FIG. 1), a first hinge structure (1050), and a second hinge structure (1060). The first housing structure (1001) may include a first housing part (1010), a second housing part (1020), and a third housing part (1030).

[0128] The first housing part (1010) can be rotatably coupled to the second housing part (1020) by the first hinge structure (1050). The first housing part (1010) and the second housing part (1020) can be rotated about the first hinge structure (1050). The first hinge structure (1050) can cause the first housing part (1010) to rotate in conjunction with the rotation of the second housing part (1020). While the first housing part (1010) is rotated about the first hinge structure (1050), the second housing part (1020) can be rotated about the first hinge structure (1050). For example, when the first housing part (1010) and the second housing part (1020) rotate with respect to the first hinge structure (1050), the angular displacement (or angular change) of the first housing part (1010) may be substantially the same as the angular displacement of the second housing part (1020).

[0129] The third housing part (1030) can be rotatably coupled to the second housing part (1020) by the second hinge structure (1060). The second housing part (1020) and the third housing part (1030) can be rotated about the second hinge structure (1060). The second hinge structure (1060) can cause the second housing part (1030) to rotate in conjunction with the rotation of the third housing part (1030). While the third housing part (1030) is rotated about the second hinge structure (1060), the second housing part (1020) can be rotated about the second hinge structure (1060). For example, when the second housing part (1020) and the third housing part (1030) are rotated with respect to the second hinge structure (1060), the angular displacement of the second housing part (1020) may be substantially the same as the angular displacement of the third housing part (1030).

[0130] The first hinge structure (1050) and the second hinge structure (1060) can change the state of the electronic device (1000). The first hinge structure (1050) and the second hinge structure (1060) can provide (or enable) a first state of the electronic device (1000) (or a first state of the housing structure (1001)). The first state of the electronic device (1000) (or a first state of the housing structure (1001)) can be described as an unfolded state (or unfolded state) of the electronic device (1000) (or the housing structure (1001)). Within the first state, the front of the first housing part (1010), the front of the second housing part (1020), and the front of the third housing part (1030) can define the front of the electronic device (1000). In the first state, the front of the first housing part (1010), the front of the second housing part (1020), and the front of the third housing part (1030) may face in the same direction. In the first state, the electronic device (1000) may provide the user with a large display area of ​​the flexible display (1040).

[0131] The first hinge structure (1050) and the second hinge structure (1060) can provide a second state of the electronic device (1000) (or a second state of the housing structure (1001). The second state of the electronic device (1000) (or a second state of the housing structure (1001)) can be described as a folded state (or multi-folding state or folding state) of the electronic device (1000) (or housing structure (1001)). While the state of the electronic device (1000) changes from the first state to the second state, the rotational direction of the first housing part (1010) relative to the second housing part (1020) may be the same as the rotational direction of the third housing part (1030) relative to the second housing part (1020).

[0132] In the second state, the front of the first housing part (1010) and the front of the second housing part (1020) may face in opposite directions, and the front of the second housing part (1020) and the front of the third housing part (1030) may face in opposite directions. For example, in the second state, the front of the first housing part (1010) may face the front of the second housing part (1020), and the rear of the second housing part (1020) may face the front of the third housing part (1030). In the second state, the electronic device (1000) may be folded to improve portability. In the folded state, visual information may be provided through a portion of the display area (e.g., a third display area (1040c)) of a display (1040) placed on the outside of the electronic device (1000).

[0133] The first hinge structure (1050) and the second hinge structure (1060) can provide a third state of the electronic device (1000). The third state of the electronic device (1000) can be described as a state in which the electronic device (1000) is partially folded and partially unfolded (or a single folding state or a half folding state). For example, in the third state, the front of the second housing part (1020) and the front of the third housing part (1030) may face each other in the same direction, and the front of the first housing part (1010) may face the front of the second housing part (1020). For example, in the third state, the first housing part (1010) and the second housing part (1020) may be folded, and the second housing part (1020) and the third housing part (1030) may be unfolded.

[0134] However, not limited thereto, within the third state, the front of the first housing part (1010) and the front of the second housing part (1020) may face each other in the same direction, and the rear of the second housing part (1010) may face the rear of the third housing part (1030). For example, within the third state, the second housing part (1020) and the third housing part (1030) may be folded, and the first housing part (1010) and the second housing part (1020) may be unfolded. The electronic device (1000) may change from the first state to the second state through the third state. The electronic device (1000) may change from the first state, which is an unfolded state, to the third state, which is a partially unfolded state. For example, the electronic device (1000) can change from a first state in which the first housing part (1010), the second housing part (1020), and the third housing part (1030) face in the same direction to a third state in which the front of the first housing part (1010) faces the front of the second housing part (1020). The electronic device (1000) can change from a third state (1000c), which is partially unfolded, to a second state, which is folded. For example, when changing from the third state (1000c) to the second state, the folded first housing part (1010) and the second housing part (1020) can be placed on the third housing part (1030). As the state of the electronic device (1000) changes to a second state, the rear surface of the second housing part (1020) folded with respect to the first housing part (1010) may face the rear surface of the third housing part (1030).

[0135] The flexible display (1040) may define the appearance of the electronic device (1000) at least partially. The flexible display (1040) may be partially disposed within the housing structure (1001). The flexible display (1040) may define the front of the electronic device (1000). The flexible display (1040) may include a first unbendable portion (1041), a second unbendable portion (1042), a third unbendable portion (1043), a first bendable portion (1044), and a second bendable portion (1045). The first unbendable portion (1041) of the flexible display (1040) may be disposed on the front of the first housing part (1010). A second unbendable portion (1042) of the flexible display (1040) may be placed on the front of the second housing part (1020). A third unbendable portion (1043) of the flexible display (1040) may be placed on the front of the third housing part (1030). A first bendable portion (1044) of the flexible display (1040) may be placed between the first unbendable portion (1041) and the second unbendable portion (1042) of the flexible display (1040). For example, the first bendable portion (1044) of the flexible display (1040) may be placed on a first hinge structure (1050) connecting the first housing part (1010) and the second housing part (1020). The second bendable portion (1045) of the flexible display (1040) may be positioned between the second unbendable portion (1042) and the third unbendable portion (1043) of the flexible display (1040). For example, the second bendable portion (1045) of the flexible display (1040) may be positioned on a second hinge structure (1060) connecting the first housing part (1010) and the second housing part (1020).

[0136] The first hinge structure (1050) and the second hinge structure (1060) may have the first unbendable portion (1041) of the flexible display (1040), the second unbendable portion (1042) of the flexible display (1040), and the third unbendable portion (1043) of the flexible display (1040) oriented substantially in the same direction. In the first state, the first bendable portion (1044) and the second bendable portion (1045) may be positioned in substantially the same horizontal plane as the first unbendable portion (1041), the second unbendable portion (1042), and the third unbendable portion (1043).

[0137] The first hinge structure (1050) and the second hinge structure (1060) can provide a second state of the electronic device (1000). In the second state, the first unbendable portion (1041) of the flexible display (1040) faces the third unbendable portion (1043) of the flexible display (1040), and the second unbendable portion (1042) of the flexible display (1040) can be seen through the front of the second housing part (1020). In the second state, the first bendable portion (1044) of the flexible display (1040) can be folded so that the first unbendable portion (1041) of the flexible display (1040) and the second unbendable portion (1042) of the flexible display (1040) face different directions. In the second state, the second bendable portion (1045) of the flexible display (1040) can be folded so that the first unbendable portion (1041) of the flexible display (1040) and the third unbendable portion (1043) of the flexible display (1040) face in different directions.

[0138] In a first state, the entire display area of ​​the flexible display (1040) may be visible from the front of the housing structure (1001). For example, the first display area (1040a), the second display area (1040b), and the third display area (1040c) of the flexible display (1040) may be visually exposed. In the first state, the electronic device (1000) may provide the user with a large display area including the first display area (1040a), the second display area (1040b), and the third display area (1040c). In a second state, the display area of ​​the flexible display (1040) may be partially visible. For example, the first display area (1040a) and the second display area (1040b) of the flexible display (1040) may not be visually exposed, and the third display area (1040c) may be visually exposed.

[0139] In a non-limiting example, when the flexible display (1040) is used to display a screen within a first state of the electronic device (1000), the first display area (1040a), the second display area (1040b), and the third display area (1040c) of the flexible display (1040) may be activated. In a non-limiting example, when the flexible display (1040) is used to display a screen within a second state of the electronic device (1000), the third display area (1040c) may be activated, and the first display area (1040a) and the second display area (1040b) of the flexible display (1040) may be deactivated.

[0140] In a non-limiting example, when the flexible display (1040) is used to display a screen within a first state of the electronic device (1000), the first display area (1040a), the second display area (1040b), and the third display area (1040c) of the flexible display (1040) may display visual information. In a non-limiting example, when the flexible display (1040) of the electronic device (1000) is used to display a screen within a second state or a third state, the third display area (1040c) may provide visual information, and the first display area (1040a) and the second display area (1040b) of the flexible display (1040) may provide a black image.

[0141] The second housing part (1020) and the third housing part (1030) are shown to rotate in the same direction relative to the first housing part (1010), but are not limited thereto. For example, while changing from the first state to the second state, the first housing part (1010) may rotate clockwise relative to the second housing part (1020), and the third housing part (1030) may rotate counterclockwise relative to the second housing part (1020). As the first housing part (1010) and the third housing part (1030) rotate in different directions, the display area of ​​the flexible display (1040) in the second state may be disabled and not visually exposed.

[0142] FIGS. 11a and FIGS. 11c are drawings illustrating various screens provided by an electronic device providing a color correction function according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the electronic device (100) may be a form factor capable of one fold, as shown in FIG. 2c, but is not limited thereto, and may have a form factor capable of multi-folding, as shown in FIG. 10a and FIG. 10b.

[0143] When a preset user input (e.g., a user input such as touching the top of the screen of the electronic device (100) and then flicking downwards) is received while the application execution screen (1120) is provided on the second display (130-2) in a folded state, the electronic device (100) may provide a pop-up type UI (1110) at the top of the screen as shown in FIG. 11a. However, this is merely one embodiment, and the UI (1110) may be provided on other areas of the screen. Here, the pop-up type UI (1110) may include an item for color correction. When an item for color correction is selected, the electronic device (100) may activate a color correction mode. Here, the color correction mode may be a mode for correcting the color of an object or screen provided on the application screen for a colorblind user.

[0144] In one or more embodiments, when the electronic device (100) is unfolded during a color correction mode, the electronic device (100) can simultaneously provide an application execution screen (1130-1) and an application execution screen (1130-2) for which color correction has been performed on the application execution screen (1130-1), as illustrated in FIG. 11b, on the first display (130-1). That is, the electronic device (100) can divide the first display (130-1) into two parts to simultaneously provide the original execution screen (1130-1) and the corrected execution screen (1130-2) to the user.

[0145] In one or more embodiments, when the electronic device (100) is unfolded during a color correction mode, the electronic device (100) may simultaneously provide an application execution screen (1140-1), an application execution screen (1140-2) that has performed color correction on the application execution screen (1140-1), and a UI (1150) for color correction of the execution screen on the first display (130-1), as illustrated in FIG. 11c. That is, the electronic device (100) may divide the first display (130-1) into three parts and provide the user with a UI (1150) that includes UI elements that allow the user to adjust the correction intensity along with the original execution screen (1140-1) and the corrected execution screen (1140-2), and change the positions of the original execution screen (1140-1) and the corrected execution screen (1140-2). Here, when user input is received on the original execution screen (1140-1), the electronic device (100) can control the corrected execution screen (1140-2) in the same way as the original execution screen (1140-1) according to the user input. For example, when user input is received to drag the original execution screen (1140-1) upward, the electronic device (100) can drag not only the original execution screen (1140-1) but also the corrected execution screen (1140-2) upward. That is, the electronic device (100) can operate the original execution screen (1140-1) and the corrected execution screen (1140-2) by mirroring them.

[0146]

[0147] Meanwhile, the display described in FIG. 11c may be a form factor having a single-fold display as in FIG. 2c, but this is merely one example, and it may be a form factor having a multi-fold display as described in FIG. 10a and FIG. 10b.

[0148] FIGS. 12a to 12c are drawings illustrating a screen provided by an electronic device including a plurality of display areas according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the electronic device (1000) may have a multi-foldable form factor as described in FIGS. 10a and 10b.

[0149] The electronic device (100) can be folded into a prism shape (or a triangle shape) as illustrated in FIG. 12a using a multi-foldable flexible display (1040). That is, the first unbendable portion (1041) of the flexible display (1040) can be oriented in a first direction, the second unbendable portion (1042) can be oriented in a bottom direction, and the third unbendable portion (1043) can be oriented in the opposite direction of the first direction, thus being folded into a prism shape. In this case, the first user can view the screen displayed on the first unbendable portion (1041), and the second user can view the screen displayed on the third unbendable portion (1043).

[0150] Here, the electronic device (100) may provide an application execution screen (1210) on the first unbendable portion (1041) as shown in FIG. 12b, and may provide a color-corrected application execution screen (1230) on the third unbendable portion (1043) as shown in FIG. 12c. Here, the electronic device (100) may provide a UI (1220) that indicates that the screen displayed along with the application execution screen (1210) on the first unbendable portion (1041) is the original screen, and may provide a UI (1240) that indicates that the screen displayed along with the color-corrected application execution screen (1230) on the third unbendable portion (1043) is the corrected screen. By doing so, a normal user and a colorblind user can view the same screen through a single electronic device (100).

[0151] FIG. 13 is a block diagram of an electronic device (1301) in a network environment (1300) according to various embodiments. The electronic device (1301) may be implemented as the electronic device (100) shown in FIG. 1 according to one example.

The screen for entering the color correction mode may include a UI element (1410) for turning the color correction mode on or off and a UI element (1420) for setting information about the colorblind user. Specifically, when the color correction mode is turned on by the UI element (1410), the electronic device (100) may perform the operation of FIG. 3. Here, the color correction mode may be a mode for correcting the color of an object or screen provided on an application screen for a colorblind user. When the colorblind user's colorblind type (e.g., green-red colorblindness) is set through the second UI element (1420), the electronic device (100) may obtain information about the colorblind user.

[0177] After the color correction mode is turned on (or activated), if it is determined that color correction is necessary while the application execution screen is provided, the electronic device (100) may provide a UI (1430) for color correction, as shown in FIG. 14b. The UI (1430) for color correction may include a UI element (1440) containing information about a color blindness type set by the user. Here, when the UI element (1440) is selected, the electronic device (100) may provide a list (1450) for changing the color blindness type of the color blind user, as shown in FIG. 14c. When other color blindness information (e.g., blue-yellow color blindness) is set through the list (1450), the electronic device (100) may provide a UI element (1460) containing information about another color blindness type, as shown in FIG. 14d.
