Card Interface Region of Interest Auto-Positioning
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face difficulty in quickly finding specific regions of interest across multiple windows or cards on media devices due to the need for manual scrolling, especially when the displayable area is limited.
Innovation Solution
A method is introduced where regions of interest are automatically highlighted and rearranged within the displayable area upon activation of an interest feature, eliminating the need for users to manually manipulate each card or window individually.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If multiple windows or cards are displayed simultaneously, then information quantity increases, but ease of operation deteriorates due to manual scrolling requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the display area into multiple card regions, each containing specific information. Instead of displaying all information in a single large window requiring scrolling, the information is divided into discrete cards that can be individually positioned and viewed, eliminating the need for manual scrolling while maintaining high information quantity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from a single-dimensional scrolling interface to a two-dimensional spatial arrangement of multiple cards. Cards are positioned at different locations on the display, allowing users to view multiple regions of interest simultaneously across the display plane without vertical or horizontal scrolling.
2Area of stationary object
If displayable area is limited, then device portability improves, but productivity deteriorates due to inability to view all content at once
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple cards containing different regions of interest into a single unified display arrangement. By positioning multiple cards within the limited displayable area simultaneously, the system allows users to view content from multiple sources or regions at once, maintaining high productivity despite limited display space.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic card positioning where cards can be automatically rearranged based on user interactions or system criteria. This dynamic arrangement allows the most relevant cards to be positioned in optimal locations within the limited display area, maximizing the effective use of available space and maintaining high productivity.
3Ease of operation
If automatic region of interest detection is implemented, then ease of operation improves, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a system where the display interface automatically detects and positions regions of interest without requiring user input. The system autonomously analyzes the content of multiple cards, identifies important regions, and arranges them optimally on the display, allowing the interface to serve itself rather than requiring manual user manipulation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms where the system monitors user interactions with cards and automatically adjusts the positioning and arrangement of cards based on this feedback. This allows the system to learn from user behavior and improve its automatic region of interest detection and card arrangement capabilities over time.
Data Source
AI summary
The present disclosure is directed towards having a user interface that displays a number of cards or windows. A user can implement a command where the user interface will automatically change the position of the displayed cards to show regions of interest which are the parts of the cards that a user may have interested in. The user interest can be determined in accordance with user preference information. Optionally, cards which do not have regions of interest are removed from a display area and such cards are replaced with new cards that do have regions of interest.
