苹果最新的一项专利显然是在向猫学习。采用这项专利技术之后,一旦iPhone或者iPad不慎坠落,系统马上就会侦测到这个紧急状况,从而迅速调整自身重心,避免屏幕等易碎部位着地,造成损失。

我们通常不会报道苹果(Apple)的专利,因为它的专利申请多如牛毛,而被公布的则少之又少。 但我们要为20130073095号专利申请破例一次。这项专利于上周四发布,由AppleInsider的米奇•坎贝尔发现。 这项专利描述了一个传感器和微处理器系统。一旦这个系统探测到iPhone或iPad正在坠落,它将改变设备的重心,防止设备坠地时最易碎的部件着地。 下面的示意图由AppleInsider网站提供。 | We don't usually write about Apple's (AAPL) patents because the company files so many and so few ever see the light of day. But for Patent Application No. 20130073095, published Thursday and spotted by AppleInsider's Mikey Campbell, we'll make an exception. It describes a sensor-and-microprocessor system that can detect when an iPhone or iPad is falling and shift the device's center of balance so that it doesn't land on its most fragile parts.
