Methods and apparatus to facilitate user interactions with foldable displays are disclosed. An electronic device includes a display, an array of transmitters to extend across the display in a first direction, and an array of receivers to extend across the display in a second direction different than the first direction. The transmitters and receivers to enable detection of at least one of a hover event or a touch event in an area of the display. The receivers to extend less than a full distance across the display.

Methods and apparatus to facilitate user interactions with foldable displays

Methods and apparatus to facilitate user interactions with foldable displays are disclosed. An apparatus processor circuitry to execute instructions to: detect a hover event via a hover sensor included within a first region of a foldable display of a computing device; detect a touch event via a touch sensor included within a second region of the display separate from the first region; and generate interactive content on the display, the interactive content to differ between a first appearance and a second appearance depending on whether the interactive content is rendered in the first region or the second region.

Methods and apparatus to facilitate user interactions with foldable displays are disclosed. A computing device includes a foldable display having a first region, a second region, and a bendable region between the first and second regions. The computing devices includes a hover sensing system associated with the bendable region to detect a hover event, and a touch sensing system associated with at least one of the first region or the second region to detect a touch event. The computing device further includes an operations controller to implement an action on the computing device responsive to at least one of the hover event or the touch event.

A system and method for application controlled fragrance generation are disclosed. A particular embodiment includes: receiving a fragrance trigger from an application, the fragrance trigger being associated with a particular fragrance that corresponds to an event, action, image, sound, or gesture depicted in the application, determining a temperature needed to cause the particular fragrance to be emitted from a fragrance cartridge; and causing a thermal element to heat the fragrance cartridge to the determined temperature.
