Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for experimental training, such as watching experiment videos, suffer from low display fidelity, particularly in fields like chemistry, biology, and medical services, where misoperation can be hazardous and require expensive equipment.
Innovation Solution
A display method and apparatus using augmented reality to acquire and present experimental environment images, including instrument and material images, and to determine and display experiment effect information based on user gestures, enhancing fidelity by superposing virtual status and effect images onto real environments.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If experiment videos are used for training, then users can learn experimental procedures, but display fidelity is low and cannot provide immersive training experience
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a virtual copy of the experimental environment using augmented reality technology. The system captures real experimental scenes and generates corresponding virtual representations that can be displayed on users' devices, allowing them to interact with virtual instruments and materials that replicate real experimental conditions without requiring physical equipment.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from two-dimensional video playback to three-dimensional immersive visualization. By using augmented reality, the system overlays virtual experimental elements onto the user's real-world environment, creating a multi-dimensional training experience that provides depth, spatial awareness, and interactive capability beyond traditional video.
2Measurement precision
If physical experimental instruments are provided for training, then display fidelity and training effectiveness are improved, but equipment cost and safety risks increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system creates virtual copies of experimental instruments and materials that replicate their visual appearance and functional behavior. Users interact with these virtual representations through gesture recognition and other input methods, experiencing the full training benefit without exposure to physical hazards associated with real experimental equipment.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary layer between the user and physical experimental equipment. This virtual reality interface acts as a mediator that translates user actions into virtual experiments, allowing safe distance and eliminating direct exposure to hazardous materials while maintaining training effectiveness.
3Measurement precision
If augmented reality is used to superpose virtual images on real environment, then display fidelity is significantly improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a universal augmented reality platform that can display multiple types of virtual content (instruments, materials, effects) across different real-world locations. The system uses standard camera and display technologies combined with software processing, making the complexity manageable through multi-functionality rather than requiring specialized hardware for each experimental scenario.

AI summary
The present disclosure discloses a display method and apparatus. A specific implementation of the method comprises: acquiring an experimental environment image; presenting, on the experimental instrument image using an augmented reality approach, a status image indicating an experimental status of an experimental instrument when performing the target experiment; in response to detecting a gesture operation of a user, determining experiment effect information of an experiment operation based on a corresponding relation between the gesture operation and the experiment operation of the target experiment, wherein the experiment effect information comprises an experiment effect image; and displaying, using the augmented reality approach, the experiment effect image in the experimental environment image having presented the status image. This implementation may superpose a virtual status image and an experiment effect image on a reality environment image, thereby enhancing the display fidelity.
