Abstract:
A mobile terminal comprising a stereoscopic display unit outputting a stereoscopic image is disclosed. In one embodiment the stereoscopic display unit comprises a display element configured to periodically display left and right images, a refractive lens unit disposed to overlap with the display element and configured to change refractive characteristics thereof, and a controller configured to control the refractive characteristics of the refractive lens unit such that a refraction direction of transmitted light is periodically changed to make the left and right images face in different directions.
Abstract:
A display device including a liquid crystal panel configured to selectively transmit light for each pixel of the liquid crystal panel; a light guide plate provided behind the liquid crystal panel; a light source array including a plurality of LEDs arranged in a row at first lateral side of the light guide plate, and configured to emit light to the first lateral side of the light guide plate; and a mirror provided in a second lateral side of the light guide plate and configured to reflect the light having reached the second lateral side back along the light guide plate. Further, a rear surface of the light guide plate includes a stepped unevenness having first surfaces configured to reflect light toward the liquid crystal panel and second surfaces configured to reflect light toward the mirror, and a thickness of the light guide plate increases in a first direction from the first lateral side to the second lateral side such that the second lateral side of the light guide plate is thicker than the first lateral side of the light guide plate.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal disclosed herein includes a window on one surface of a terminal body and configured to be curved, and a liquid crystal display (LCD) on a rear surface of the window to output visual information, and curved by external force. The liquid crystal display includes a liquid crystal panel to generate an image using light from a light guide plate, at least one prism sheet disposed between the light guide plate and the liquid crystal panel, and a supporting member accommodating the light guide plate and the prism sheet and supporting the liquid crystal panel. The supporting member includes first and second mounting portions with the liquid crystal panel mounted. At least one of the first and second mounting portions has a recess portion for insertion of an edge of the prism sheet to prevent shifting of the prism sheet due to the liquid crystal display being curved.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal according to the present invention can provide various user interfaces for editing an image itself displayed on a front surface display area, an editing function for items displayed on the front surface display area, and so on by using the front surface display area and a side surface display area.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display is provided that includes a first base substrate including a first surface, a second base substrate including a second surface, a liquid crystal layer including liquid crystal molecules positioned between the first and second base substrates and configured to change alignment when electrical power is applied thereto, a first electrode positioned on the second surface and including a plurality of substantially parallel grooves extending in a first direction on a surface facing the first base substrate, the plurality of grooves configured to align the liquid crystal molecules in a preset direction when electrical power is applied, and a second electrode positioned on the first surface or on the second surface, wherein a voltage difference between the first and second electrodes applies the electrical power to the liquid crystal molecules.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal including a light guide plate; a plurality of light sources disposed on at least one side of the light guide plate; a display positioned on a front surface of the light guide plate; and a controller configured to control the display to operate in one of operation states including a first state, in which all of the plurality of light sources are activated such that an entire portion of the display is illuminated, and a second state, in which at least one light source corresponding to a partial portion of the display among the plurality of light sources is selectively activated such that the partial portion of the display is illuminated, perform an operation in accordance with a first touch input applied to the partial portion of the display in the second state, and not perform an operation in accordance with a second touch input applied to a remaining portion excluding the partial portion of the display in the second state.
