Cross-Platform Display Rendering for Form-Factor Accurate Sharing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic devices struggle to accurately share displayed content across devices with different form factors and display technologies, resulting in distorted or unintelligible viewing experiences.
Innovation Solution
Generate a second rendering of the display content tailored for the receiving device's form factor and display technology, adjusting for factors like viewing angle, resolution, tone mapping, and occlusion to ensure accurate representation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the same display content is shared across devices with different form factors and display technologies, then the sharing functionality is simplified, but the viewing experience becomes distorted or unintelligible
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts rendering parameters including resolution, color space, brightness, contrast, and geometric transformations based on the target device's display characteristics. This allows the same content to be adapted to different form factors (AR glasses, mobile devices, tablets) while maintaining visual accuracy and intelligibility for each specific display technology.
Solution Approach 2:
The content rendering process is made dynamic by detecting the target device type and automatically adjusting the rendering parameters in real-time. The system transitions from a static one-size-fits-all approach to a dynamic adaptive rendering system that modifies display parameters based on the specific device characteristics, ensuring optimal viewing experience across diverse platforms.
2Productivity
If display content is recorded and shared across platforms, then content sharing capability is enabled, but the viewing experience is distorted due to different form factors
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms where the source device detects the target device's form factor and display characteristics, then uses this information to adjust the rendering parameters. This closed-loop feedback ensures that the shared content maintains high quality and accuracy across different platforms, preventing distortion while enabling efficient content sharing.
3Device complexity
If a single rendering is used for all devices, then the rendering process is simplified, but the content cannot be accurately displayed on devices with different display technologies
Solution Approach 1:
The rendering process is segmented into device-specific parameter adjustment stages. Instead of creating a completely different rendering for each device from scratch, the system takes a base rendering and applies specific parameter adjustments (resolution scaling, color space conversion, geometric transformations) tailored to each device type. This segmentation reduces overall complexity while maintaining display fidelity.

AI summary
Cross-platform sharing of displayed content is provided. In one or more implementations, cross-platform sharing of display content may include displaying a first rendering of display content with a first display of a first device, and, responsive to a request to capture and/or share the displayed content, generating a second rendering of the display content, the second rendering different from the first rendering. The second rendering may be different from the first rendering in such a way that, when the second rendering is displayed by a second display of a second device having a different form factor and/or display technology, the displayed second rendering accurately represents the perceived view of the user of the first device.
