Moto Foldable Phone

amoffet2123
amoffet2123 over 7 years ago

So I had an idea when I was sitting at my desk looking at my dual screen monitors and that kind of sparked an idea since my Moto Z2 Force Edition is so versatile with the mods, what if you could create a foldable secondary screen that enclosed the main phone itself? Almost like your Moto-Folio mod that you can use to store cards and what not, but replace that with a screen and give it a rigid hinge and some kick stands on the back to support the heavier portion of the phone to be used almost like a mini laptop. You could run a keyboard program on the second screen as well to give it the full keyboard feel like the actual mod I have seen was in development. The possibilities of what you could do on that could go as far as running two programs full screen, utilizing it as a keyboard, maybe running a gaming app that utilized one screen for the actual gameplay and the secondary for the controls (almost like a Nintendo DS), or even just folding flat and giving it more of a "tablet" feel?. I'm by no means a "techy" person and I have no idea about how to go about creating the mod or utilizing your developer kit so I was kind of looking to the devs to see what they had to say about the idea? Thanks for your time!

    Currently, Moto Mods displays are integrated as Secondary Displays in Android.  By default, the screen is mirrored.  However, if the active Application uses the Presentation class then it can create a unique dialog (no user input).  As Android multi-window and multi-screen support evolves, we will update Mods behaviors to allow for more flexible usage.

     

    That said, we've seen some pretty innovative things done in applications:
