A foldable device includes first and second bodies that respectively support a first part and a second part of a flexible display device and are foldably connected to each other between a folded position and an unfolded position, and a movable support member that continuously near-supports a third part of the flexible display device between the first part and the second part when the first body and the second body change from the folded position to the unfolded position.

Foldable device

A display device for displaying an image and a method by which the display device operates to display an image are provided. The display device may include a display configured to output a screen image, an image sensor configured to acquire an image signal, a bending detection sensor configured to detect a bending motion or a bent state of the display device, and a control unit configured to control the display to display an image, which is generated based on the image signal, in a region according to a position at which the display is bent on the screen image if the bending detection sensor detects the bending motion or a bent state.

Display device and operating method thereof with adjustments related to an image display according to bending motion of the display device

A bendable user terminal device provided with a flexible display controls the flexible display to display information on a first area while the user terminal device is maintained in a bent state based on a detected bending state of the user terminal device, and, in response to the user terminal device changing from the bent state to an unbent state, controls the flexible display not to display the information on the first area.

Bendable user terminal device and method for displaying thereof

An electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a housing that comprises a first surface which faces a first direction and a second surface which faces a second direction opposite to the first direction, and that comprises a first transparent plate which forms at least a portion of the first surface of the housing; a display that is disposed between the first transparent plate and the second face of the housing, and comprises a second transparent plate which faces the first direction, and a third transparent plate which faces the second direction; a first electrode, a second electrode, a third electrode, and a fourth electrode that are disposed between the second transparent plate and the third transparent plate; and a control circuit that is electrically connected to the first electrode, the second electrode, the third electrode, and the fourth electrode, wherein the control circuit may be configured to detect the position of touch input with respect to the first transparent plate by using the first electrode, to detect the intensity of the touch input by using the second electrode, and to display visual information on at least a portion of the display by using the third electrode and the fourth electrode. In addition, an electronic device comprising a pressure sensor according to various embodiments of the present invention can provide a slim electronic device with reduced manufacturing costs by utilizing an integrated structure with a touch sensor and/or a fingerprint sensor and by disposing the touch sensor including the pressure sensor, and other sensors between various structures inside the display.

Electronic device comprising pressure sensor

A curved touch panel and a display device including the same are provided. The touch panel includes a flat region in which first sensing cells are arranged; and a curved region in which second sensing cells are arranged that are different from the first sensing cells in terms of at least one of an arrangement pattern and a shape.

Curved touch panel and display device comprising same

A foldable electronic device including: a first body; a second body; a connection part configured to connect the first body to the second body so that the first body and the second body are rotatable to a first state in which the first and second bodies are unfolded and to a second state in which the first and second bodies overlap each other; a flexible display element that passes over the connection part and is supported by the first and second bodies; and a roller that is rotatably installed at an end of the first body and connected to an end of the flexible display element, wherein the flexible display element is located at an outer circumference of the first body, the second body, and the connection part in the second state, and wherein a part of the flexible display element is rolled around the roller in the first state.

Foldable electronic device

Display device and operating method thereof with adjustments display

Bendable user terminal device and method for displaying contents based on bending status thereof

A flexible printed circuit board (PCB) has stretchability and durability. The flexible PCB includes: a first polymer substrate having flexibility, stretchability, or elasticity; a second polymer substrate having flexibility, stretchability, or elasticity; a conductive track disposed between the first and second polymer substrates and including metal nanowires; and a cured silane coupling agent which bonds the conductive track to at least one of the first and second polymer substrates.

Flexible printed circuit board

A plurality of panels include: a display panel; and a protective panel that is disposed outside the display panel, and includes a transparent substrate and an outer hard coating layer and an inner hard coating layer that are respectively formed on an outer surface and an inner surface of the transparent substrate, and each have a hardness greater than a hardness of the transparent substrate. A thickness of the outer hard coating layer is greater than a thickness of the inner hard coating layer, and a stress neutral surface of the flexible display device is configured so that a compressive stress is applied to the inner hard coating layer when the flexible display device is bent.
