Contour-Based Identification Pattern Generation for Terminal Devices

The patent segments the character image into multiple contour lines at different distances from the character. This segmentation transforms a single monotonous image into multiple layered contour elements, creating a more visually appealing display effect while maintaining the original character recognition. The segmentation principle resolves the contradiction by adding visual complexity without complicating the generation process.

The patent adds a spatial dimension to the display by generating contour lines at multiple distances around the character. Instead of a flat 2D character image, the solution creates a multi-layered structure with contours positioned at different radial distances, effectively adding depth and visual dimensionality. This dimensional enhancement improves display effect while the automated generation process remains simple.

The patent changes the parameter of contour line distance to generate multiple contour lines at different distances from the character. By systematically varying this single parameter (distance) while keeping the contour generation algorithm unchanged, the solution achieves diverse display effects without proportionally increasing processing complexity. The parameter-based approach allows efficient generation of multiple contour variations.

The patent creates multiple contour lines by copying the character's outline at different distances rather than creating entirely new designs. Each contour line is a copy of the base character shape, scaled and positioned at a specific distance. This copying approach generates visually diverse results while reusing the same generation logic, thereby limiting the increase in processing complexity.
