Patent number: 10148922Abstract: A display system includes a master device that displays a master image corresponding to a part of image data, and a slave device that displays a slave image corresponding to another part of the image data. The slave device includes a slave signal generation unit that starts to generate a slave timing signal at a predetermined interval with reference to a timing based on a first instruction received from the master device, a slave communication unit that transmits to the master device a completion notification indicating that a preparation for displaying the slave image is completed, and a slave display unit that displays the slave image in synchronization with the slave timing signal corresponding to a second instruction received from the master device.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2016Date of Patent: December 4, 2018Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Masaki Fujioka, Norihiro Kawahara, Kohei Murayama, Yoshio Nishioka

Patent number: 10133462Abstract: An electronic device having a slot antenna is disclosed. The electronic device includes a main unit chassis and a display chassis. The main unit chassis includes a base cover formed of a conductor, and a keyboard and a keyboard cover formed of a dielectric. The base cover includes a slot. The display chassis is connected to the main unit chassis through a hinge. The upper surface of the display chassis is covered by a display rear cover formed of a conductor. The lower surface of the display chassis is covered by a display unit and a bezel formed of a dielectric. A slot antenna is formed in a bezel area of the display rear cover. The slot of the base cover is located at a position that opposes a slot of the slot antenna when the display rear cover of the display chassis is overlapping with the main unit chassis.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2016Date of Patent: November 20, 2018Assignee: LENOVO (SINGAPORE) PTE LTDInventor: Yoshio Nishioka
