Definitions
- the present invention relates to a foldable electronic device.
- An electronic device includes an active area activated according to an electrical signal.
- the electronic device may sense input applied from the outside through the active area and simultaneously display various images to provide information to the user.
- active areas having various shapes are implemented.
