1. Field
One or more embodiments relate to a display apparatus and a method of controlling the display apparatus.
2. Description of the Related Art
Generally, examples of display devices include organic light-emitting displays, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), electrophoretic displays (EDs), surface-conduction electron-emitter displays (SEDs), vacuum fluorescent displays (VFDs), etc.
Display apparatuses may be used in mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablet personal computers, laptop computers, digital cameras, camcorders, and personal digital assistants (PDAs), or may be used in electronic products, such as slim-type televisions, displays, and advertisement panels.
Recently, research into manufacturing slimmer display apparatuses has been conducted. Among the display apparatuses, flexible display apparatuses, which are portable and applicable to devices of various shapes, have drawn attention as next-generation display apparatuses. In particular, flexible display apparatuses based on an organic light-emitting display technique are the most favorite display apparatuses.
Research into display apparatuses at least partially curved by using flexible display panels or bendable or foldable by a user are being conducted.
