The Pixelbook was shown off only around two months ago, but the tech industry is constantly evolving. That seems to be the case for this motorized Pixelbook lid that was spotted in a patent. This lid would ensure that you wouldn’t have to exert as much physical force to use your laptop.
The patent was actually filed way back in Q4 2013, though it was only granted last week. One person credited on it is Ken Loo, a Senior Product Design Engineer who worked on the Pixel phone, Pixelbook, and as the lead engineer for Google’s self-driving car’s sensors.
