Abstract

Generally, this disclosure provides devices, systems and methods to provide dual screen visibility with virtual transparency. A device may include a dual-sided display element to display a first image on a first side of the display element and to display a second image on a second side of the display element; an activation detection module to detect a user request to initiate the dual screen visibility mode; an image processing module to generate a horizontally transposed version of the second image; and an image rendering module. The image rendering module may be capable of, in response to the initiation request, displaying the horizontally transposed version on the first side of the display element and adjusting a relative transparency between the first image and the displayed horizontally transposed version.
