Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, an electronic device and a computer program for determining bending of a flexible display. The flexible display comprises two parallel capacitive layers and an isolator layer between the two parallel capacitive layers, wherein each capacitive layer comprises multiple capacitive electrodes pairs. The method measures capacitance values of the capacitive electrodes pairs. And then the method determines the bending of the flexible display based on the result of measurement.
