  • Electronic device and control method thereof
    Patent number: 9947206
    Abstract: An electronic device with a display screen is provided and the device includes an infrared light emitter for emitting infrared light; and an infrared light receiver configured corresponding to the infrared light emitter such that the infrared light receiver receives infrared light emitted by the infrared light emitter when the electronic device is not deformed or deformation of the electronic device is not greater than a preset threshold. A control unit is connected with the infrared light emitter and the infrared light receiver for transmitting first information to an operation system of the electronic device when the infrared light emitter emits infrared light but the infrared light receiver does not receive the infrared light. The electronic device enables detecting deformation of electronic devices using infrared light, so that damage to the screens of the electronic devices can be avoided as soon as possible.
