Microsoft Surface Phone To Feature Multi-Device Screen Sharing? See More Details Here
Caitlin MooreA new patent filing from Microsoft hinted that the upcoming Surface Phone might feature a multi-device screen sharing system. The technology is said to allow a display to be shared over two or more devices. Though it is still yet to be confirmed, it could be an interesting feature for gaming especially in multiplayer modes.
As reported by WinBuzzer, the newly released Microsoft patent application details a multi-device system that lets users pair their gadgets to combine the display. The abstract of the patent reads, "In embodiments of multi-device pairing and combined display, mobile devices have device touchscreens, and housing bezels of the mobile devices can be positioned proximate each other to form a combined display from the respective device touchscreens."
Additionally, the patent also describes an "input recognition system" that gives the mobile device a capability to initiate screen sharing with another devices. The result will be a cross-display of a single interface over two interlinked smartphones. The feature may also be used on more than two mobile phones, reportedly. It is important to note that the Redmond-based multinational technology company has not unveiled the highly anticipated Microsoft Surface Phone yet. However, several reports surfaced online about the specs of the new mobile phone, including leaked images that hinted a Carl Zeiss branding. The photos also resembled a design similar to Lumia.
The alleged Microsoft Surface Phone images were proven to be fake as pointed out by Phone Arena though. The report claimed that the Carl Zeiss branding in the given images were from the old prototype. The last time it was used was back in 2013.
Microsoft Surface Phone is expected to be revealed this year though the company has not given an update on its official unveiling. In the meantime, tell us what you want to see in the new smartphone. Are you interested in the speculated multi-device screen pairing system?
