Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If current digital cameras are used for image synthesis, then basic photographing function is maintained, but convenient image synthesis capability is lacking
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is divided into multiple division frames that can be independently configured. Each division frame captures and displays images separately, allowing users to synthesize multiple images by simply positioning subjects in different divided regions. This segmentation approach enables intuitive multi-image synthesis without complex operations.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple images are captured and synthesized, then creative image composition is enabled, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a temporal dimension to image synthesis by capturing images at different time points in separate division frames. Instead of complex spatial arrangements, users can synthesize images taken at different moments, adding a time-based creative dimension while keeping the device structure simple.
Solution Approach 2:
The same photographing apparatus and display screen perform multiple functions: capturing individual images, displaying division frames, synthesizing multiple images, and providing various display modes. This multi-functionality enables creative image composition without requiring additional specialized devices.
3Manufacturing precision
If division frame is adjusted for better composition, then image synthesis quality improves, but operation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides pre-configured division frame patterns and layouts that users can select directly. These preliminary configurations offer optimized compositions for different synthesis needs, allowing users to achieve high-quality image synthesis without manually adjusting complex frame parameters.
Solution Approach 2:
The division frames are dynamically adjustable and can be reconfigured in real-time based on user selection. The system adapts the frame configuration to match the desired synthesis outcome, providing flexibility without requiring complex manual adjustment procedures.
