Motorola has patented a new electric hinge technology for foldable smartphones. This significantly increases the functionality of these devices.
Here’s what we know
According to a patent filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), the power hinge can automatically adjust the angle of the top of the smartphone. This means that the device can change the position of the screen on its own, especially during video chats or taking photos, ensuring that the user is always tracked within the frame.
This feature can help you make video calls and take selfies and group photos more conveniently. This technology can be built into smartphones or sold as a separate accessory. Allows for more precise shooting angle adjustments than software solutions with wide-angle cameras.
The patent doesn’t guarantee a product launch, but it does indicate Motorola is considering new ways to improve its foldable smartphones.
