Solution Overview

Problem

Users of smart mobile terminals face inefficiencies when selecting and editing multiple photos, leading to a time-consuming process that negatively impacts user experience, especially when immediate sharing is required.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that analyzes image characteristics and user interactions to adjust camera settings, ensuring that captured images meet user preferences by classifying images as satisfying or unsatisfying and adjusting parameters accordingly, aiming to increase the ratio of satisfying images and extending terminal lifespan.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If users manually select and edit multiple pictures, then image quality and user preferences are satisfied, but time consumption increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage qualityVSAvoidtime consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically analyzes user feedback on captured images and self-adjusts camera parameters without requiring manual user intervention. The camera device autonomously learns from user satisfaction feedback and modifies imaging parameters to produce preferred images, eliminating the need for users to manually select and edit multiple pictures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements a feedback mechanism where user satisfaction information regarding captured images is collected and used to adjust camera parameters. The processor receives feedback about whether captured images meet user preferences and automatically modifies imaging parameters based on this feedback, creating a closed-loop control system that continuously improves image quality according to user preferences.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Reliability

If camera parameters are adjusted multiple times to improve image quality, then user satisfaction increases, but the processing complexity and time increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser satisfactionVSAvoidprocessing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The camera device autonomously performs parameter adjustment based on user feedback without requiring complex manual intervention or multiple iterative adjustments by the user. The system self-manages the entire process of capturing images, receiving feedback, and adjusting parameters automatically.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system replaces manual mechanical adjustment of camera parameters with automated electronic control. The processor electronically adjusts imaging parameters based on digital feedback signals, substituting manual mechanical operations with automated computational control, thereby reducing processing complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

3Manufacturing precision

If users manually edit images after capture, then image quality improves, but the overall workflow efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimage qualityVSAvoidworkflow efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs parameter adjustment actions preliminarily during the capture process itself, rather than requiring post-capture editing. By automatically adjusting camera parameters based on real-time feedback, the desired image quality is achieved at the source, eliminating the need for subsequent manual editing operations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The camera system autonomously handles image quality optimization without requiring user intervention for editing. The processor automatically analyzes feedback and adjusts parameters to produce satisfactory images directly, making the workflow self-sufficient and eliminating manual editing steps.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

Disclosed are a storage apparatus, a mobile terminal and an image processing method thereof. The image processing method comprises the following steps: acquiring a feature index parameter of each image; acquiring an operation instruction, and classifying images according to the operation instruction; determining, according to the classification of the images, whether a user is satisfied with an image; and if it is determined that the user is satisfied with the image, correcting a photographing parameter of a camera of a mobile terminal according to a feature index parameter of the satisfactory image, such that an image photographed thereby better conforms to the requirements of the user. Therefore, the present invention can directly obtain an image that a user is satisfied with, thereby saving on the screening time for a user, and thus improving the user experience.
