Microsoft works on a technology to emulate Windows 10X apps on devices with two or more screens
Table of contents:
Windows 10X will be the next version that Microsoft releases of its operating system in a kind of adaptation to make it work on the next generation of dual-screen devices. With the Surface Neo and Surface Duo at the forefront, we will see a wide range of products to choose from from different manufacturers.
Now the problem lies with the American company to achieve a stable and competent operating system, something that for now some brands do not see as real.And it is that going to work in double screen requires an adaptation of both the OS and the applications and to avoid problems, at Microsoft they are working on a patent that avoids possible inconveniences
Adapt to dual screen
"The patent titled Emulated Multi-Screen Display Device has been discovered with the USPTO. A patent that dates back to 2018 and that refers to how Microsoft has been working for a long time on optimizing apps for this type of device."
With the next Microsoft foldable devices coming, we will have Windows 10X and to prevent apps that don't work properly, the new Windows 10X will have to pull emulationA technology that would cause non-optimized apps to fail when used on foldable devices.
A kind of help to the developer who has not been able to adapt his application for dual-screen devices and that these offer a performance similar to that of well-optimized ones. To do this, the implemented technology could emulate a number of variable screens that allows developers to create well-optimized Windows apps for foldable devices.
We will still have to wait to see the first dual-screen Microsoft devices, almost a year (and that Satya Nadella has already been a Surface Neo) but the company is already working so that when the day comes there are no problems with the form factor and the development of specially adapted applications.
