Rollable Display Panel Position Detection via Sensing Zones

The non-display region is divided into multiple sensing zones with different sensing components (first sensing components and second sensing components) arranged in specific patterns. Each sensing component detects local panel state, and the controller integrates these segmented detections to determine overall panel configuration, thereby improving position identification accuracy while managing complexity through modular sensing zones.

The sensing components serve multiple functions: they detect both flattened and rolled states, identify panel positions, and provide information for adaptive display resolution adjustment. This multi-functionality allows a single sensing system to handle various panel configurations without requiring separate detection mechanisms for each state.

The sensing components are pre-integrated into the non-display region during panel manufacturing, before the panel is assembled into the final device. The sensing zones are predetermined and pre-positioned, allowing the manufacturing process to proceed systematically without requiring complex post-assembly calibration or adjustment of sensing components.

Different types of sensing components are strategically placed in specific locations within the non-display region based on their detection capabilities. First sensing components and second sensing components are positioned to optimize detection of specific panel states, ensuring that each sensing component operates in its most effective zone while maintaining overall system reliability.
