According to the latest technology patents approved by Apple, showing the design of the future iMac all-in-one machine. In Apple’s conception, the future iMac in the future with a screen embedded single piece of curved glass.
Note: The patent for this technology was first filed with the U.S. Trademark and Patent Office (USPTO) in 2019 and was approved in 2022. Apple also filed an application in Europe in the same year, but it was approved only recently.
The technology patent, titled “Electronic device with glass enclosure,” explores the future of the iMac through a single piece of curved glass.
According to the patent, the single piece of curved glass, with a screen on either side and a keyboard in the center, could be used as part of a stand for the iMac.
The point is that the keyboard in the center of the iMac is hollowed out, allowing users to plug in a MacBook Pro or MacBook Air laptop and expand it to act as an external screen for the MacBook.
In another design sketch Apple showed, the single piece of curved glass can be folded to take up less space.
