Adaptive Display System for Shared and Personal Information
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In public spaces where multiple individuals gather, existing information display systems struggle to distinguish between information shared by a group and personal information, often mixing display sizes and areas on a single wall surface, leading to unclear visibility and interaction challenges for both groups and individuals.
Innovation Solution
An information display system that includes a position recognition unit to determine user proximity to a wall surface, using a display unit to show a content-display-frame on both the floor and wall surfaces, and a display control unit to adjust the display based on user position, ensuring clear separation of shared and personal information through adaptive sizing and positioning.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Illumination intensity
If information is displayed on a large wall surface to improve visibility for multiple persons, then visibility for groups is improved, but distinction between shared and personal information becomes unclear
Solution Approach 1:
The display area is segmented into different zones: a large shared information display area on the wall surface and a personal information display area on the floor surface. This spatial segmentation allows clear distinction between information intended for multiple persons and information intended for individuals, while maintaining high visibility for both types of information through appropriate placement on different surfaces.
2Illumination intensity
If display size is enlarged for multiple persons, then visibility for groups is improved, but interaction capability for individuals is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system transitions from a two-dimensional wall surface display to a three-dimensional space-utilizing display by adding a floor surface component. The personal information display area is projected onto the floor surface, creating a new spatial dimension that allows individuals to interact with information at eye level or by looking down, improving interaction capability while maintaining group visibility through the wall surface display.
3Device complexity
If a single wall surface is used for all information display, then device complexity is reduced, but information organization becomes unclear
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges the wall surface and floor surface into a unified display ecosystem, combining both surfaces to present information in an integrated manner. The shared information is displayed on the wall surface while personal information is displayed on the floor surface, creating a cohesive information organization structure that utilizes multiple surfaces to clarify information hierarchy and reduce organizational confusion.

AI summary
A position of a user is recognized. A display unit (102) displays a content-display-frame (112). A determination unit (103) determines whether the position of the user is within a predetermined range from a wall surface (12) or not. The display control unit (104) configured to display a content-display-frame on a floor surface (11) when the position of the user is farther than the predetermined range from the wall surface, and configured to display an operation input area (113) that receives an operation input from the user on the wall surface while displaying a content-display-frame to span from the floor surface to the wall surface when the position of the user is within the predetermined range from the wall surface.
