Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing augmented reality systems face challenges in ensuring privacy and efficient interaction, particularly in large-scale environments with federated systems, where centralized control is impractical and desired for low latency and high data transmission rates.
Innovation Solution
A communication device that obtains location information, interacts with a virtual real estate directory system to identify and access augmented reality interaction servers, and facilitates secure data exchange with other users using public/private key encryption and real-time data transmission.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional touchscreen interfaces are used for mobile devices, then ease of operation is maintained, but interaction naturalness and user engagement deteriorate due to abstract icon-based navigation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates virtual representations (copies) of real-world objects and environments within the augmented reality interface. Users interact with these virtual copies using natural gestures, which are then translated into device commands. This allows intuitive interaction without requiring users to learn abstract icon-based interfaces, resolving the contradiction between interaction naturalness and interface complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces gesture recognition technology and virtual object mapping as intermediaries between user intent and device control. Natural hand gestures serve as the intermediary medium that bridges the gap between intuitive user behavior and precise digital control, eliminating the need for complex touchscreen interfaces while maintaining ease of operation.
2Adaptability or versatility
If augmented reality content is overlaid on camera viewfinder, then user engagement and immersion improve, but visual clarity and navigation accuracy deteriorate due to obstructed view
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies different visual qualities to different regions of the augmented reality display. Critical navigation elements and real-world visual information are kept in unobstructed zones with high clarity, while augmented content is placed in peripheral or less critical areas. This spatial differentiation of visual quality maintains both user engagement through AR content and navigation accuracy through clear viewfinder access.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from two-dimensional overlay composition to three-dimensional spatial arrangement of augmented elements. By positioning virtual objects in depth layers and utilizing peripheral vision zones, the system maintains central viewfinder clarity for navigation while providing immersive AR content in surrounding spatial dimensions, resolving the contradiction between engagement and accuracy.
3Adaptability or versatility
If comprehensive augmented reality features are implemented, then functionality and user experience improve, but processing requirements and energy consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements selective AR feature activation based on user context, device capabilities, and environmental conditions. Instead of continuously rendering all AR features at full quality, the system dynamically adjusts the level of AR enhancement applied to different scenes and objects. This partial action approach maintains comprehensive functionality when needed while reducing processing load and energy consumption during normal operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs periodic updates and frame skipping strategies for AR content rendering. Critical navigation and safety-related AR elements are updated continuously, while non-critical decorative or informational elements are updated periodically or on-demand. This differential update strategy maintains essential functionality while significantly reducing overall processing requirements and energy consumption.
