Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, this technology has disadvantages: since the shell adopts liquid crystals or thermochromic liquid crystals that change color with temperature, the cause of the color change of the electronic device shell is only limited to the change of temperature, excluding other causes, for example, it cannot Link with the communication events of the mobile phone (such as standby state, incoming calls, missed calls, new text messages, etc.); the change of the color of the shell can not be controlled by the user
[0007] However, this technology also has shortcomings: the color-changing performance of the device has no connection with the communication events and sensor signals that occur on the communication terminal; and there is no mention of applying the color-changing device to the shell manufacturing of communication terminals or portable electronic consumer devices

Embodiment Construction

[0022] The invention provides an electronic device and a method for controlling the discoloration of the housing of the electronic device. The electrochromic material is applied to the housing of the electronic device, and the trigger event of discoloration is associated with the color of the housing of the electronic device. In this embodiment, a mobile phone is taken as an example for illustration, and the same effect can also be achieved in other types of electronic devices.

[0023] Since the controllability of electrochromic materials is better than that of other color-changing materials, the use of electrochromic materials in the manufacture of electronic device casings can not only make the casing of the mobile phone have a color-changing function, but also enable the color-changing function to be controlled by the user. It is pre-set, which is not available in other thermochromic materials and photochromic materials. Users can judge the current working status of the mob...

Abstract

An electronic device is prepared as receiving discoloration trigger event by event trigger module and sending said event to discoloration processing module being used to obtain potential D-value corresponding to discoloration trigger event and being used to control potential D-value on shell to be corresponded shell potential D-value, setting electrochromism layer between partial shell and substrate and electric-connecting said electrochromism to discoloration processing module. The method for controlling shell discoloration of electronic device is also disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technology of discoloration of the housing of an electronic device, in particular to an electronic device with a discoloration housing and a method for controlling the discoloration of the housing of the electronic device. Background technique [0002] At present, portable consumer electronic devices (MP3 players, MP4 players, and PDAs, etc.) and communication terminals (mobile phones, fixed telephones) are more and more widely used. Collectively referred to as electronic devices, users' requirements for these electronic devices are becoming more and more personalized (for example, they can sense temperature, sense ultraviolet intensity, etc.). Designers of these electronic devices also use casings of different shapes to distinguish their products from competitors' products. For example, some electronic devices (such as mobile phones) that can replace casings of different colors appear on the market, but this replacement on...
