Amazon submits patent application for "remote display screen" to obtain data from "master station"

In the morning of March 27, Beijing time, according to geekwire, the US technology blog, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos has submitted a patent application for remote display, which can obtain data and power from the central master station.

A tablet or e-book reader made with this technology has only a display screen, and the battery and processing chip can theoretically be replaced by a 'master station'.

The patent sees processors and large internal batteries as major obstacles to the thinness of mobile devices. "It is impossible to continue to reduce the size of many devices today," the patent document said. Mobile devices generally accommodate components such as processors and batteries, which limit their minimum size and weight. Although the battery size continues to get smaller, for many users, the battery life is often not long enough. '

People in the industry pointed out that the wireless transmission of data and power to the display described in the patent is not feasible at present, but it does represent an interesting idea for future tablet computers and e-book readers.
