This new Apple patent will work by steering light in a particular angel as opposed to emitting it in all directions which is what happens with idevices now. This sounds like a great idea especially if you want to stop people glancing at what you are doing on your iPhone. This patent includes systems and methods for electronically controlling the viewing angle of the display using liquid crystal optical elements.
The patent also goes on to explain how this new feature might be implemented and there could even be an option to change the viewing angel and possible turning off this privacy mode so that all users will have flexibility on how and when they would like to use this feature. It’s not fully clear how this feature will work and if it will even be a success but it really does sound promising to say the least and being able to control privacy on your iPhone is something that a lot of people would be interested in. What do you think about this? Would you use this new privacy mode if it were built into your iPhone?
