Flexible Display Lock Screen Control for Front and Rear Areas
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The challenge lies in managing and deciding which information to display on multiple display areas of a user terminal apparatus, particularly when a display is extended to the rear side, creating limitations in viewing and requiring effective methods for information exchange and manipulation between these areas.
Innovation Solution
A user terminal apparatus with a main display area on the front and a sub display area on the rear, connected by a round display area, where a processor provides lock screens and home screens based on user input, determining the display area for lock screen release and adjusting the type and shape of the lock screen and home screen accordingly.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If a display is extended to the back side of the electronic apparatus, then the display area is increased, but it becomes difficult to view all display areas at once and requires complex manipulation methods
Solution Approach 1:
The display is divided into multiple independent display areas (front display area and rear display area) that can be independently controlled and viewed. This segmentation allows the user to view different content on different surfaces without requiring complex manipulation to switch between unified displays.
Solution Approach 2:
The display extends from the front surface to the rear surface of the electronic apparatus, utilizing the third dimension (depth) to create additional display areas. This dimensional expansion increases the total display area while maintaining ease of viewing by distributing content across different spatial planes.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple display areas are created on front and rear sides, then information display capability is enhanced, but it becomes necessary to implement complex methods for information exchange and manipulation between areas
Solution Approach 1:
The processor is designed to universally manage multiple display areas with a unified control architecture. It can dynamically allocate content, control lock screens, and manage information exchange across all display areas using a single integrated system, avoiding the need for separate complex mechanisms for each display area.
Solution Approach 2:
The processor acts as an intermediary that coordinates information exchange between the front and rear display areas. It manages the lock screen state and content distribution across multiple displays, simplifying the interaction complexity by centralizing control logic in a single mediating component.

AI summary
A user terminal apparatus is provided. The user terminal apparatus includes a display consisting of a main display area disposed on a front side of the user terminal apparatus and a sub display area extended from one side of the main display area to be disposed on at least one area of a rear side of the user terminal apparatus, and a processor configured to provide a lock screen to a display area of at least one of the main display area and the sub display area and, in response to a user input of releasing the lock screen being sensed, control the display to provide a different home screen based on a display area where the user input is sensed.
