Apple innovation patent: Mac and iPad may usher in a full-screen era in the future'

According to news on July 4, according to the technology patent published by the United States Trademark and Patent Office (USPTO), Apple recently obtained a new technology patent called "Frameless Display with Light Bending Structure" (No. US 20230209880 A1). It is understood that this patent hints that Apple may launch Macs and iPads with borderless screens in the future, bringing a new display experience to users.

Apple said that size and weight are important considerations when designing full-screen devices. If not handled with care, the display device can become bulky or have very thick bezels. In this patent, Apple proposes a solution for improving display solutions for electronic devices.

The patent shows a display technology installed in an electronic device housing that provides image light to the user through an array of display pixels. The display pixel array can form a rectangular-shaped active display structure and be wrapped with an optical structure (such as a glass sheet or other optical components) as a passive frame. Through the use of optical components, the surface size of the display may be expanded to even exceed the area of ​​the active display structure.

According to the editor’s understanding, Apple’s technology patent demonstrates their innovative thinking in the design of electronic devices. By improving the display solution, Apple is expected to bring a better appearance and experience to future Macs and iPads. The application of edge-to-edge screens will minimize the borders of the device, providing users with a larger display area and making content more immersive, while also preventing the device from becoming overly heavy and bulky.

Although the acquisition of the patent does not mean that Apple will immediately use this technology in products, it proves the progress Apple has made in the development of borderless screen technology. Apple has always been committed to providing innovative product design and user experience, and the acquisition of this patent further proves its continued focus on future display technology.

Currently, Apple has not officially announced when it will launch Mac and iPad products with borderless screens. The launch of Apple's patent has triggered widespread speculation and expectations, with many users and technology enthusiasts showing great interest in their new products. As technology further develops and matures, we expect that Apple’s full-screen devices will bring stunning visual experiences to users in the future.
