Surface Centaurus may also use ultrasound sensors mentioned in a patent
t It seems that Microsoft can plan to use a smart system of Android sensor, when it comes to potential dual-screen devices such as Andromeda.
This possibility is indicated by a new patentuncover by Windows Latest, which underlines a foldable device with two different displays, in which one display section is an embedded ultrasound emitter and the other is an ultrasound sensor.
The latter will also host the unit and calculation unit components - in other words, hardware gubbins to enable us to calculate the distance between the display system and the angle (stop us if we are getting very technical).
The big idea is that the machine can then adjust the operating system's interface, or switch to different modes of operation - i.e. tablet mode - depending on how the user has currently deployed two displays .
The patent also mentions a 'telephone mode' which can be used when the display is in a closed configuration, possibly pointing to the use of this technique in Microsoft's Andromeda, the alleged "Poketable" dual- The screen surface device that can be a phone - due to the laptop hybrid potentially appearing at some point this year

Open and shut case
Launch or closing the application is also mentioned as possible use of this technique, which means that when the sensor detects the device for the first time opening, for example, some applications specified by the user are automatically Can be removed from Or other apps may be automatically opened (or off), when it says, the device switches to the above phone mode.
All this should be implemented not only with the hardware but also at a software level, which is why speculation is that Microsoft is still running away with the software side of the equation: Andromeda OS. It is believed that it is a modular rewamp of Windows 10, which can be changed based on its current hardware.
Everything Microsoft is looking for to create a more flexible computing device with an OS to point out, and this potential application of ultrasound sensors fits neatly into that big picture, enabling a device that makes accurate On the base, you can adjust yourself on the fly. Its screen's configuration, and what the user is currently doing.
We have mentioned Andromeda hardware, but it can be equally applicable to Microsoft's alleged dual-screen slate, which is known by codenamed Surface Centaurus. It is clearly a full-size tablet with two screens, which sparking decka woo for those who remember the decade-old courier, a concept that was clearly ahead of its time.
As always, in the case of patents, however, remember that this concept can never be found before the research phase.
If this happens, then we imagine further that the use of ultrasound technology in Microsoft's hardware can lead to a new Windows 10 app, which is fully integrated with photos, and expecting mothers to rest their Allows to get a DIY glimpse of the unborn offspring. In their homes Or maybe not ...
