  • Patent number: 10234907
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for rotationally coupling housing portions of an information handling system. An information handling system includes a housing having a first housing portion and a second housing portion. The information handling system also includes a hinge assembly coupling the first and second housing portions, the hinge assembly comprising a plurality of coupled links, the links coupled such that the links move in relation to one another to cause the hinge assembly to bend when the first housing portion is rotated in relation to the second housing portion. In addition, the information handling system includes a flexible display coupled to the first housing portion and the second housing portion, the flexible display covering the hinge assembly, the flexible display configured to bend when the hinge assembly bends.

  • Publication number: 20180136823
    Abstract: Methods and systems for interfacing with users may include displaying content associated with a plurality of user interface elements, tracking a view of the user on at least a portion of the content to determine an interest of the user, detecting the user in proximity to an information handling system, displaying the portion of content corresponding to the interest of the user on the information handling system, sharing the portion of content associated with the plurality of user interface elements on a display, and scaling the size of the portion of content on the display to match the size of the portion of content displayed on the information handling system. The sharing may be based on a gesture from the user. The match may be based on the perception of the user, in which the perception is based on the distance between the user and the display.

  • Publication number: 20180033200
    Abstract: An information handling system operating to allow a head mounted display device to display a head mounted digital image such that a user may simultaneously view the head mounted digital image and the displayed base user interface elements from the base computing device. Either the head mounted computing device or base computing device could have a processor executing code instructions of a multiple device augmented surface management system to determine the edges of the base computing device or a user interface as captured in the image of the base computing device. The information handling system may also receive data allowing it to correlate a base user interface element as displayed on the base computing device with an image of the base user interface element as captured in the three-dimensional image of the base computing device.
