Abstract
A compute box includes a communication device and one or more processors. The one or more processors, in response to the communication device being electronically in communication with a flexible content presentation companion device and at least one other flexible content presentation companion device, determine a geometric configuration of each flexible content presentation companion device. The one or more processors format content for presentation on the visible area available on the flexible content presentation companion device and another visible area of another flexible content presentation companion device and cause the communication device to deliver the content to each flexible content presentation companion device. When the geometric configuration of any flexible content presentation companion device changes, the one or more processors can generate a visible display area adjustment animation to smoothly transfer the content to a new visible area.
