Abstract

See full text

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and system for recommending one or more bend lines in a flexible display to distribute a bending load on the flexible display. According to one embodiment, one or more bend lines are detected in a display, and data from the bend lines is obtained and stored. The data is compared to a pre-determined manufacturer bending threshold of the display, and the system determines whether one or more bends in the display have exceeded the pre-determined manufacturer bending threshold. When the threshold has been exceeded, an alert is created and sent to a user of the device.
