AR Data Display Security via Context-Aware Policy Adjustment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Information handling systems with augmented reality face challenges in securely displaying data to users in varying locations and physical contexts, particularly in environments where safety and efficiency are critical, such as during vehicle operation, due to the need for adaptive security levels and timely data presentation.
Innovation Solution
The system loads multiple policy settings from a policy file, determines the user's location and physical context using sensors, and adjusts the display of data or information based on these settings to ensure secure and timely presentation, with options to contravene security levels based on user input or hazardous conditions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of time
If data is displayed immediately in augmented reality, then information delivery speed is improved, but user safety deteriorates in hazardous environments
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically changes the security parameter (display timing and location) based on the user's physical context and location data. When hazards are detected or the user is in motion, the system adjusts by displaying information more slowly or in safer locations, resolving the contradiction between fast information delivery and user safety.
Solution Approach 2:
The display system transitions from static to dynamic behavior by continuously monitoring user context and adjusting data presentation in real-time. The system adapts display timing, location, and content based on changing environmental conditions, allowing it to prioritize safety when hazards are present while maintaining efficient information delivery when safe.
2Reliability
If security level is increased to protect user safety, then user protection is improved, but information delivery efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes security parameters dynamically based on user context. When the user is stationary and in a safe environment, security restrictions are relaxed to allow efficient information delivery. When hazards are detected or the user is in motion, security parameters are tightened to prioritize safety, thus resolving the contradiction between protection and efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The security system is made dynamic by continuously assessing user context and adjusting protection levels in real-time. This allows the system to provide maximum protection when needed while minimizing restrictions during safe periods, maintaining both user safety and information delivery efficiency.
3Loss of information
If data is displayed in central view for immediate perception, then information visibility is improved, but user safety deteriorates due to distraction from hazards
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies different display quality and priority to different spatial locations. Critical safety information is displayed in high-priority locations (such as peripheral vision areas), while less critical information is placed in lower-priority locations. This ensures that important information is visible without necessarily occupying the central field of view, reducing distraction from hazards.
Solution Approach 2:
The system utilizes the spatial dimension of the display field by distributing information across different locations rather than concentrating it in the center. By leveraging peripheral vision and spatial distribution, the system maintains information visibility while reducing the distracting effect of central display elements.
