DISPLAY DEVICE, CORRESPONDING SYSTEMS, AND METHODS THEREFOR
First Claim
1. An electronic module, comprising:
- a housing;
a first electronic module extension, hingedly coupled to a first side of the housing and extending distally from the first side of the housing;
a second electronic module extension, hingedly coupled to a second side of the housing different from the first side, and extending distally from the second side of the housing; and
an energy storage device disposed within one or more of the first electronic module extension or the second electronic module extension configured to deliver energy to electronic components disposed only within the housing.

Abstract
A display system includes a display and a control circuit operable with the display. The display is configured to provide visual output having a presentation orientation. When user input is received, the control circuit can alter the presentation orientation from an initial orientation in response to user input. When non-user events or device events are detected, the control circuit can revert the presentation orientation to the initial orientation in response to the non-user event or device event. Where the presentation orientation has a user input configuration associated therewith, the user input configuration can either be altered with the presentation orientation or retained in an initial disposition.

14. An electronic module, comprising:
-
a housing; a control circuit disposed within the housing operable to alter an operating mode of the electronic module to one of a plurality of functional modes; and an extension detection sensor, operable with the control circuit and configured to detect an angular position of a first electronic module extension and a second electronic module extension hingedly coupled to a first side and a second side of the housing, each being selectively pivotable to an angularly displaced position relative to the housing; wherein the control circuit is configured to select the one of the plurality of functional modes based upon the angular position detected by the extension detection sensor. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A method of selecting an operational mode of an electronic module, comprising:
-
detecting, with an extension sensor, an angular position of one or more electronic module extensions pivotally coupled to a housing and configured for selective movement between a plurality of angular displaced positions relative to the housing; correlating, with a control circuit, a detected angular position with an functional mode of the electronic module; and transitioning the operational mode of the electronic module to a correlated functional mode in response to the detecting. - View Dependent Claims (20)
