Tech giant Xiaomi patents earthquake monitoring mobile tech
Chinese tech giant Xiaomi has published
a patent for 'Method and Equipment for Realizing Seismic Monitoring of Mobile
Devices' with publication number CN113406696A.
The patent describes a system that is capable of
reading/monitoring seismic activity from a mobile equipment. This technology
would be used in detecting earthquakes, reports GizmoChina.
The 'mobile device' would transfer key data obtained to send it to
an earthquake processing
center.
The system would also permit the underlying processor to identify
and predict earthquake events
based on multiple readings, the report added.
Xiaomi earlier
patented a foldable smartphone solution to reduce crease in the foldable
devices.
The company filed this patent with the CNIPA (China National
Intellectual Property Administration).
This patent is titled "Support Structure of Flexible Screen,
Flexible Screen Structure and Terminal Equipment".
According to the documentation, the design includes two supporting
structure for the flexible display panel.
The second structure, which is close to the screen is deformable.
Hence, when the device is closed, the display has a low chance of getting
affected by a larger crease in the long run.
