Apple is exploring how to make the folding iPhone iPad interface, and even full-screen MacBook Pros experience the simple superposition of the hardware itself.
The latest patent, “User Interface for Multi-Display Equipment,” reveals a dual-screen folding device similar to the MacBook Pro. The patent includes 335 design drawings. folding iPhone iPad interface focuses on collaborative operations between dual screens while continuing the Mac tradition of multi-screen support. It also integrates the Universal Control function to enhance screen resource management. Additionally, the patent explores redefining input methods, such as replacing the physical keyboard.
Apple has widely covered various equipment forms in patent descriptions. From portable communication equipment to desktop machines equipped with touch interface, it emphasizes the universality of applications. Nevertheless, most of the icons are biased towards folding mobile phones or tablets, but it also clearly states that the scope of application is extended to laptop and even desktop machines.
The core concept is that the traditional keyboard area is replaced with a touch screen. The touch screen can be used as a painting board, touchpad, or virtual keyboard. folding iPhone iPad interface specifically mentioned that the touch screen may have high resolution to meet the needs of different use scenarios. The user mainly obtains information through the top display and interacts with the touch screen. The two are coordinated to improve operating efficiency and battery life.
Apple carefully planned the user experience. It adjusted cursor color and animation to help users position faster. These changes also reduce misunderstandings and indirectly save electricity. The goal is a seamless transition between two screens. Users should not notice operational boundaries, ensuring a natural and smooth interaction.
