  • Patent number: 11922088
    Abstract: An information handling system includes adjacent displays connected by a hinge. A processor renders a first image on the first display, renders a second image on the second display, and receives data representing a misalignment between the first display and the second display. The data is implemented to compensate for the misalignment between the first display and the second display.

  • Patent number: 11341925
    Abstract: A portable information handling system presents visual images at first and second displays integrated in first and second rotationally-coupled housing portions. When the housing portions rotate to a clamshell configuration, a keyboard disposed on one of the displays accepts keyed inputs and, to save power, backlight segments below the keyboard are powered down. The display can present information as visual images proximate the keyboard with illumination provided by other backlight segments or by a secondary light source that is presented in coordination with liquid crystal panel pixels transitioning to transparent and opaque states.

  • Patent number: 10510305
    Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device may include a first display device and a second display device. An embedded controller may determine a first perceived brightness of the first display based on a first current and a first amount of ambient light associated with the first display device, determine a second perceived brightness of the second display device based on a second current and a second amount of ambient light associated with the second display device, and determine a ratio of the first perceived brightness to the second perceived brightness. The embedded controller may modify, based at least in part on the ratio, the second current to create a second modified amount of current associated with the second display device that modifies the second perceived brightness of the second display device to create a modified second perceived brightness of the second display device.

  • Patent number: 10339894
    Abstract: In some examples, a computing device includes a first display device coupled to a second display device by hinges. After determining that the computing device has been moved from a first orientation to a second orientation, the computing device may receive ambient light data from ambient light sensors associated with the first and second display device, temperature data from temperature sensors associated with the first and second display device, and color data from color sensors associated with the first and second display device. After determining that power is being received from an external power source or that the user prefers the display devices may be color matched, the computing device may perform one or more color adjustments based on the ambient light data, the temperature data, and the color data, thereby reducing a difference in a perceived color between the first display device and the second display device.

  • Patent number: 10228839
    Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device may include a first display device and a second display device that are both touch sensitive devices. An auto-scroll module executing on the computing device may create an input area on at least one of the first display device or the second display device based on an orientation of the computing device. The auto-scroll module may automatically scroll the input area as input is received in the input area. The automatic scrolling may include removing a portion of the input being displayed in the input area, recognizing text in the portion of the input, and displaying the text in a text area of a window associated with an application.

  • Patent number: 10209789
    Abstract: In some examples, a computing device may authenticate a user. The user may pair a stylus with the computing device. The stylus may include one or more buttons. After the user performs a first sequence of button presses using the buttons of the stylus, the computing device may receive a first instruction that causes the computing device to begin execution of an application. The application may receive input in response to the user manipulating the stylus on a touchscreen of the computing device. After the user performs a second sequence of button presses using the buttons of the stylus, the computing device may receive a second instruction that causes the computing device to save the input. The computing device may provide the user with access to the saved input in accordance with an access level associated with the stylus.

  • Patent number: 10170061
    Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device may include a first display device and a second display device. An embedded controller may determine a first amount of ambient light and a first current associated with the first display device and modify the first current to create a first modified amount of current associated with the first display device. The embedded controller may determine a second amount of ambient light and second current associated with the second display device. The embedded controller may determine a ratio of a first perceived brightness of the first display device to a second perceived brightness of the second display device and modify the second current until the ratio is within a predetermined amount from a target ratio.

  • Patent number: 10133423
    Abstract: A portable information handling system having a touchscreen display selectively rejects touch inputs by removing images from the display associated with the rejected touch inputs after presentation of the images. A touch buffer temporarily stores detected touches, such as by removing touches as the age in the buffer exceeds a threshold. If a trigger event is detected, such as detection of a palm touch or writing stylus, then all or selected of the touch inputs remaining in the buffer are removed as images presented at the display.

  • Patent number: 9727134
    Abstract: An information handling system may have two display screens including a first integrated display device and a second integrated display device attached via a hinge. A processor determines a first relative orientation of the first integrated display device to the second integrated display device from a plurality of orientation sensors and further determines working software application context by detecting at least one software application running on the information handling system. The system further includes a controller module deploys a power savings strategy. For example, the controller may restrict power usage to the first or second integrated display device based on the first relative orientation and the working software application context.
