Patent number: 12210793Abstract: A display system includes a first display device having an active display region having individually controllable pixels, a sensor to generate information that is useful for determining a position of the first display device relative to a second display device, and a display controller to determine the position of the first display device relative to the second display device based on the information generated by the sensor. The display controller determines an image to be shown on the first display device based on the position of the first display device relative to the second display device.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2022Date of Patent: January 28, 2025Inventors: Rex Huang, Wei-Ru Chen, Eric Huang

Publication number: 20210050750Abstract: In an inductively coupled power transmitter a force detector that detects the presence of a potential device by monitoring forces applied to a surface of the power transmitter and activates the inductively coupled power transmitter upon detection of a potential device. An inductively coupled power transmitter having a proximity detector that detects the presence and location of a potential device by monitoring the proximity of devices to a surface of the power transmitter and activates the inductively coupled power transmitter upon detection of a potential device. The transmitter preferably has one or more detection coils each having an area much greater than that of the transmitter coils for detecting the presence of a potential device.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 30, 2020Publication date: February 18, 2021Inventors: Kunal Bhargava, Fady Mishriki, Saining Ren, Daniel Robertson, Nigel James Gray, Rex Huang

Patent number: 10811913Abstract: A wireless power transmission system has a wireless power receiving device that can be charged using multiple different types of wireless power transmitting devices. The different types of wireless power transmitting devices have power transmitting coils that exhibit different levels of magnetic coupling with the power receiving coil of the wireless power receiving device. The wireless power receiving device may include capacitors, resistors, and/or other loading circuits that can be independently switched into use depending on the level of magnetic coupling that is detected, on a rectified voltage level, on the size of the output load, and/or on information conveyed during handshaking operations to present a desired impedance adjustment at the power receiving coil so that data signal can be properly conveyed between the power receiving device and the power transmitting device.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2018Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Weihong Qiu, Nan Liu, Dmitry Berdnikov, Zaki Moussaoui, Rex Huang
