AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing remote operation systems have limited viewing areas that require users to adjust their head and body position, and manipulating the view can be challenging, often causing distractions and inaccuracies due to the need to interrupt operations.

Method used

A movable display system with multiple degrees of freedom, allowing the display unit to adapt to user movements, including linear and rotational adjustments based on head and hand inputs, without being physically attached to the user.

Benefits of technology

Enables seamless viewing adjustments that reduce user fatigue and operational inaccuracies by aligning with natural body movements, allowing hands-free input for view control and maintaining a comfortable viewing experience.

Abstract

To solve the problem with the prior art.SOLUTION: Implementations relate to a movable display system. In some implementations, a control unit includes a first support and a second support coupled to the first support. The second support is linearly translatable along a first axis in a first degree of freedom with respect to the first support, and at least a portion of the second support is linearly translatable along a second axis in a second degree of freedom with respect to the first support. The control unit includes a display unit rotatably coupled to the second support. The display unit is rotatable about a third axis in a third degree of freedom with respect to the second support, and the display unit includes a display device.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 32
