Abstract
An electronic device includes: a flexible display that is configured to be deformable to a first state, in which an exposed amount of a display area of the flexible display has a first size, and a second state, in which the exposed amount of the display area is expanded in a first direction; a deformable member including a liquid-state electrode, the deformable member configured to deform in a length direction based on the flexible display transitioning between the first state and the second state; a deformation sensing circuit configured to sense a resistance component of the liquid-state electrode, the resistance component corresponding to an exposure degree of the display area; a connector member electrically connecting the deformable member and the deformation sensing circuit; a rigid member coupled to the deformable member; and a fixed structure contacting a partial area of the rigid member.
