360-Degree Image Display Object Detection Navigation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional image display apparatuses struggle to efficiently provide a 360-degree image viewing experience, often displaying sub-views based on fixed angles rather than detected objects, leading to meaningless content and inefficient navigation.
Innovation Solution
The image display apparatus uses a control device with sensors and graphic processing to detect objects within a 360-degree image and dynamically adjust the main and sub-views based on user input, allowing for object-based sub-view display and rapid navigation to detected objects.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If sub-views are displayed based on fixed angles in 360-degree images, then the display structure is simple and easy to implement, but the displayed content becomes meaningless and user experience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the parameter basis for sub-view display from fixed angular positions to dynamically detected object positions. The control device identifies objects within the main view area and determines sub-view display parameters based on object locations, sizes, and types rather than predetermined angular segments, making the displayed content meaningful and relevant to user interest.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs automatic object detection and analysis within the main view area, then autonomously determines which objects to display in sub-views and how to position them. The control device automatically adjusts sub-view parameters based on detected objects without requiring manual user configuration, enabling the system to serve itself in creating meaningful content displays.
2Productivity
If object detection and dynamic sub-view adjustment is implemented, then user experience and navigation efficiency are improved, but device complexity and processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The control device performs object detection and analysis in advance within the main view area before determining sub-view content. By pre-identifying objects of interest and their parameters, the system prepares display information proactively, enabling rapid navigation and reducing real-time processing complexity during user interaction with the 360-degree image.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent divides the 360-degree image into a main view area and multiple sub-views, with the control device independently processing object detection in the main view and separately managing sub-view content generation. This segmentation allows parallel processing of different image regions and simplifies the overall system architecture by separating detection and display functions.
3Quantity of substance
If multiple sub-views are displayed simultaneously to show more content, then information completeness is improved, but display area utilization and user focus are compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The system displays a selective subset of detected objects in sub-views rather than all possible objects, and dynamically adjusts the number of sub-views based on available screen space and user interaction context. This partial display approach prevents information overload while maintaining meaningful content relevance, and allows flexible adjustment between showing more content versus preserving main view prominence.

AI summary
An image display apparatus and a method of operating the image display apparatus are provided. An image display apparatus includes: a display; a memory configured to store instructions; and a processor configured to execute the instructions to: control the display to display a main view that provides an image of an area that corresponds to an angle of view in a 360-degree image, detect one or more objects in other areas of the 360-degree image than the area that corresponds to the angle of view in the 360-degree image, and control the display to display one or more sub-views that correspond to the one or more objects.
