Motion based display management
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for motion based display management, comprising:
- a processor and a computer-readable medium;
a first display;
a second display;
an operating environment stored on the computer-readable medium and executing on the processor;
an application;
a motion device that is configured to determine motion for the system;
a display manager operating under the control of the operating environment that is operative to;
drawing the first display in a normal mode;
drawing the second display in a normal mode;
detecting a motion event that is associated with the system;
modifying the drawing of the first display to a restricted mode during a duration of the motion event;
maintaining a drawing of the second display in the normal mode during the duration of the motion event;
determining when the motion event ends; and
returning the drawing of the first display to the normal mode from the restricted mode in response to determining the motion event ends.

Abstract
A display manager is configured to handle the drawing of windows on one or more displays for an application differently based on detected motion information that is associated with a device. The display manager may not display windows for some applications while motion is detected, while the display manager may display windows for other applications even when motion is detected. Motion enabled applications may interact with the display manager and motion information to determine how to display windows while motion is detected.
