  • Publication number: 20140124803
    Abstract: A display panel includes a display area including a display element, and a non-display area adjacent to the display area, the non-display area including a plurality of conductive pads. The conductive pads are spaced apart at a predetermined distance so as to form a first pad row and a second pad row, the conductive pads collectively having a center portion and lateral portions. A distance between the first pad row and the second pad row is greater at at least one of the lateral end portions than at the center portion.

  • Publication number: 20140002430
    Abstract: A display device which displays an image having a size corresponding to a display area exposed outside a housing is disclosed. In one aspect, the display device includes a flexible display panel having a recognition pattern, a housing, and a light-receiving sensor. The recognition pattern includes a plurality of self-luminous indicators arranged according to a first direction, and having different colors or different light-emitting intensities. The housing is coupled to the flexible display panel for entering/discharging of the flexible display panel according to the first direction such that a display area of the flexible display panel is variously exposed. The light-receiving sensor is positioned corresponding to the recognition pattern in the housing and respectively recognizes a plurality of indicators to sense the exposed display area of the flexible display panel.
