Abstract

An electronic device includes a display screen, a protection layer located on the display screen, a detection unit, and a processing unit. The detection unit detects an operation of commanding a mirror function generated by a user, and produces a trigger signal when detecting the operation of commanding the mirror function. The processing unit controls the display screen to display a single high-reflection color when the trigger signal is received.

Claims

1. An electronic device comprising:

a display screen;

a protection layer, located on the display screen;

a detection unit configured to detect an operation of commanding a mirror function generated by a user and produce a trigger signal when detecting the operation of commanding the mirror function; and

a processing unit connected to the detection unit and configured to control the display screen, to display a single color when receiving the trigger signal.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1, wherein the color is gray or silver.

3. The electronic device according to claim 1, wherein the operation of commanding the mirror function is generated by pressing a predetermined button or by selecting a predetermined menu item.

4. The electronic device according to claim 1, wherein the protection layer is made of a glass coated with a water-absorbing coating.

5. The electronic device according to claim 4, wherein the water-absorbing coating comprises antimony tin oxide and silicon oxide.

6. The electronic device according to claim 1, wherein the protection layer is an electrically-heated anti-fogging glass, and when the protection layer is powered on, the protection layer is heated and causes any fog on the surface of the protection layer to evaporate.

7. The electronic device according to claim 1, wherein the protection layer is made of a glass coated with a nanometer-scale anti-fogging film.
