Abstract

See full text

A user interface, such as a visual user interface, is configured to display a static or motion image around an aerosol-generating device (10). The aerosol-generating device includes a housing having a curved outer surface surrounding a longitudinal axis and a flexible display (20) having a curved viewing surface at least partially surrounding the longitudinal axis disposed adjacent to the curved outer surface. A control circuit (54) is operatively coupled to the flexible display and includes a memory to store a motion image (30). The control circuit is configured to display the motion image on the curved viewing surface in response to activation of the aerosolizer, which may be executed according to a method, which may be stored on a non-transitory computer readable storage medium. A remote user device may be used with the aerosol-generating device.
