1. A method to present sensor data, comprising:
- sensing, by a sensor, a parameter that relates to an object being tested;
generating, by the sensor, a measurement based on the sensed parameter; and
in response to generation of the measurement by the sensor, displaying, on a flexible display coupled to the sensor, information that relates to the measurement on a portion of the flexible display corresponding to a location above the sensor,wherein the displaying on the flexible display includes displaying a real-time pictorial gradient of the measurement that includes a first shade of a color to represent a first gradient of the measurement and a second shade of the color, different in shade than the first shade, to represent a second gradient of the measurement, wherein the second gradient includes a different value relative to a value of the first gradient.

Abstract
A system for in-place visualization of sensed data is provided. The system includes a formable sheet comprising a display and sensors embedded within the sheet underneath the display. The display will display information relating to sensed data on a portion of the display corresponding to locations of the sensors located underneath the display. As a result, the display displays the information above or directly above the sensors that output data.

8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium that includes executable instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution, cause a processor to perform operations, comprising:
-
control a sensor to sense a parameter that relates to an object being tested; control generation of a measurement based on the parameter sensed by the sensor; and control a flexible display, coupled to the sensor, to display information that relates to the measurement on a portion of the flexible display corresponding to a location above the sensor, wherein the displayed information includes a real-time pictorial gradient of the measurement that includes a first shade of a color to represent a first gradient of the measurement and a second shade of the color, different in shade than the first shade, to represent a second gradient of the measurement, wherein the second shade includes a different value relative to a value of the first gradient. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. An apparatus, comprising:
-
a flexible display that includes a viewable portion; and at least one sensor positioned underneath the flexible display and configured to sense at least one parameter of an object being tested, wherein a first location of the at least one sensor corresponds to a second location within the viewable portion that lies at least partially directly above the first location, wherein the flexible display is configured to display information in the second location within the viewable portion that pertains to the at least one parameter that is sensed by the at least one sensor, wherein the displayed information includes a real-time pictorial gradient of a measurement, wherein the at least one parameter includes a first parameter and a second parameter, the measurement includes a first measurement, and the real-time pictorial gradient includes a first real-time pictorial gradient, wherein the at least one sensor is further configured to; sense the second parameter of the object being tested, and generate a second measurement based on the second sensed parameter, the second measurement corresponding to a location different from the first location, and wherein the flexible display is configured to further display a second real-time pictorial gradient of the first and second measurements. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
