  • Patent number: 10761490
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus and an information processing method are described, which solve the technical problem that the relative position between respective bodies of wearable devices are unchangeable, and achieve the technical effect that a relative position between a display body and a fixation body of the electronic apparatus are changeable. The electronic apparatus includes a display body configured to output image information in a display state; a fixation body configured to maintain a relative position relationship between the electronic apparatus and at least a portion of a user's body when the electronic apparatus is in a fixed state; and a connection device configured to connect the display body and the fixation body and through which a relative position between the display body and the fixation body can be changed.

  • Patent number: 9563258
    Abstract: A switching method and an electronic device solve the technical problem of an inflexible switching way of an electronic device. The method includes capturing a first sensing parameter by a first sensing unit, and capturing a second sensing parameter by a second sensing unit, when the electronic device is in a first work state; judging whether the first sensing parameter meets a first preset condition and the second sensing parameter meets a second preset condition, or not; generating a first switching instruction for controlling the electronic device to switch from the first work state to a second work state, when the first sensing parameter meets the first preset condition and the second sensing parameter meets the second preset condition; and controlling the electronic device to switch from the first work state to the second work state, according to the first switching instruction.
