  • Patent number: 11272045
    Abstract: An electronic display system comprises first and second display surfaces and a computer. Each of the first and second display surfaces is configured to receive and transmit display light from an emissive element. Each of the first and second display surfaces includes both a flat portion and an edge portion non-coplanar to the flat portion. The computer is configured to control the emissive elements of the first and second display surfaces so as to present a first section of a display image on the first display surface and a second section of the display image on the second display surface. In this example, one or more rows of the display image rendered on the flat portion of a display surface are rendered duplicatively on an edge portion.
