Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to extended visual capture in a reconfigurable device. In general, at least a display portion of a device may have a deformable shape configuration in that its shape is changeable by a user. The device may also comprise at least sensor circuitry including a plurality of sensors. The shape configuration may position the plurality of sensors at different positions to enable extended visual capture of a 180 to 360 degree viewing range surrounding the device in a single image or video. Control circuitry in the device may determine when shape reconfiguration of at least the display has occurred, determine whether the new shape configuration involves visual capture, and if the new shape configuration is determined to involve visual capture, determine an operational mode for the at least the sensor circuitry and cause the sensor circuitry to capture visual data based at least on the operational mode.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for a flexible display detection system to detect movement (e.g., flexing) of a flexible display screen on a device and to interpret the movement as a gesture or selection of a device mode. Embodiments may utilize bendable sensors located adjacent to the flexible display, and may divide a display into multiple panel sections (e.g., three panels) connected to one another via hinging portions of the flexible display. Depending on the arrangement of the sections, the device may be operated in a different mode such as, for example, a tablet mode, a reader mode, or a phone mode.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods may include a processor configured to accept a first user data stream input from a first region of a configurable touch input display. The processor may be further configured to separately accept concurrent a second user input data stream from a second region of the configurable touch input display. Thus two or more users may concurrently input data to the display. A flexible, foldable display may be employed.
