Camera-Guided Electronic Display Posture Adjustment for User Comfort
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic devices lack the ability to automatically adjust their display posture to accommodate user preferences and changes in user position, requiring manual adjustment and being limited by the size of the display mount.
Innovation Solution
An electronic apparatus equipped with a camera, driver, and processor that identifies user posture and adjusts the device's position and display posture based on captured images, using neural networks and user commands to optimize the display for the user's comfort.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a manual holder is used to adjust display position, then the display can be positioned at desired height or angle, but the user must directly move the holder for each space and adjust its angle whenever changing posture
Solution Approach 1:
The electronic apparatus automatically adjusts its own position and display posture using an integrated camera and processor to detect user posture changes. The system captures images, identifies user posture, and autonomously repositions the display without requiring manual holder adjustment, thereby eliminating the time loss associated with manual repositioning.
Solution Approach 2:
The system continuously monitors user posture through camera-based image capture and feeds this information back to the processor, which then automatically adjusts the display position and posture. This closed-loop feedback mechanism ensures the display remains optimally positioned according to real-time user posture changes.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a manual holder is used, then the display can be adjusted to desired height or angle, but there is a limit to a size of the display which may be mounted on the holder
Solution Approach 1:
The display position and posture are made dynamically adjustable based on detected user posture. The system can adapt the display orientation and position for different usage scenarios (e.g., lying down, sitting, standing) without requiring a complex mechanical holder structure, thereby achieving versatility with simpler device architecture.
Solution Approach 2:
The electronic apparatus serves multiple functions by automatically adapting its display configuration for various user postures and usage environments. This multi-functional capability allows a single device to accommodate different display size requirements and positioning needs without requiring separate specialized holders for each scenario.
3Ease of operation
If the electronic apparatus automatically adjusts position based on user posture, then user comfort is enhanced, but the apparatus must capture images and process posture information
Solution Approach 1:
The apparatus uses its own integrated camera and processor to automatically detect user posture and adjust display positioning. This self-service capability enhances user comfort by eliminating manual adjustment requirements, while the computational tasks are performed internally by the device's existing processing resources rather than requiring external complex systems.

AI summary
An electronic apparatus includes a camera, a driver, a display, and at least one processor operatively connected to the camera, the driver, and the display. The processor is configured to control the camera to capture an image, identify a user posture included in the captured image, identify at least one parameter among a plurality of parameters related to a user based on the user posture, and control the driver to change a position of the electronic apparatus based on the at least one parameter, and change a posture of the display.
