DEVICE FOR PROVIDING NOTIFICATIONS WHILE MATED WITH A CARRYING CASE
First Claim
1. A device comprising:
- an indicator;
a first detector configured to detect when the device is mated with a carrying case, the carrying case having an open configuration and a closed configuration, wherein the indicator is hidden in the closed configuration and at least partially exposed in the open configuration;
a second detector configured to detect when the carrying case is in the open configuration; and
,a processor configured to place the indicator in a given notification mode when the first detector detects that the device is mated with the carrying case and the second detector detects that the carrying case is in the open configuration.
