Abstract
An electronic device includes at least one external surface comprised of a material whose texture can be dynamically changed by a device-generated trigger. The device includes: at least one sensor that detects a support condition of the device; and a controller communicatively coupled to the sensor and to a component that provides the device-generated trigger. The controller: receives, from the sensor, sensor input corresponding to the support condition; and evaluates the received sensor input to determine whether a current support condition is one that triggers the controller to cause a change in the texture of the external surface material. In response to the current support condition being one that triggers the change in the texture of the external surface material, the controller transmits a signal to the component, which activates the component to provide the device-generated trigger, causing the change in the texture of the external surface material.
