MOBILE DEVICE WITH INCLINOMETER Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC G06F1/16 

FIELD: information technology.

SUBSTANCE: disclosed is an electronic device for displaying content, having: a first panel having a first display surface; an inclinometer configured to detect a change in inclination of the first panel; an accelerometer configured to detect rotation of the first panel from a landscape orientation to a portrait orientation; and a processor configured to execute at least one software application having a graphical user interface. The processor responds to the inclinometer and responds to the accelerometer to redraw an image displayed on the first display surface, from a landscape-type display of the image to a portrait-type display of the image when change in inclination of the first panel does not exceed a threshold during rotation of the first panel; wherein the threshold includes an angle in one of a first range between 5 degrees and 30 degrees and a second range between minus 5 degrees and minus 30 degrees.

EFFECT: design of a portable device with the possibility of increasing the size of the screen.
