Abstract
An image viewing device is matable with a smart device to enhance a user's viewing experience of multimedia content. A display surface of the smart device is not visible to a user when the smart device is inserted into an opening in a back surface opposite a display screen (e.g., touchscreen) of the image viewing device. During operation, the smart device communicates display information to the image viewing device so that multimedia content appears on the touchscreen. For example, the smart device communicates picture or video information to the image viewing device.
