Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users of imaging apparatuses cannot determine the recording time for a moving image before starting capture, leading to potential missed opportunities due to unknown recording duration and increased temperature affecting device performance.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a temperature acquisition unit, calculation unit, and control unit that displays the recordable time on a display unit during standby mode, allowing users to know the time they can record a moving image before starting capture.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the recording of a moving image is started, then the user can capture images with current imaging parameters, but the user cannot know the recordable time before starting capture
Solution Approach 1:
The patent calculates and displays the recordable time in advance during the standby state before moving image recording starts. This allows users to know the maximum recording duration beforehand, enabling them to plan and initiate recording sessions effectively without missing capture opportunities.
2Ease of operation
If the image capturing standby state is maintained, then the device is ready to record, but the temperature rises reducing the recordable time
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism that continuously monitors the internal temperature during the standby state and dynamically calculates the recordable time based on the current temperature and temperature rise rate. This feedback loop allows the device to provide accurate real-time information about how long the device can record before reaching temperature limits, enabling users to make informed decisions about when to start recording.
3Productivity
If the moving image recording is started, then the user can capture videos, but the user cannot determine the recording time in advance
Solution Approach 1:
The patent calculates and displays the recordable time in advance during the standby state before moving image recording starts. This allows users to know the maximum recording duration beforehand, enabling them to plan and initiate recording sessions effectively without missing capture opportunities.
4Manufacturing precision
If the imaging parameters are set for high image quality, then the image quality improves, but the temperature rises faster reducing recording time
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism that continuously monitors the internal temperature during the standby state and dynamically calculates the recordable time based on the current temperature and temperature rise rate. This feedback loop allows the device to provide accurate real-time information about how long the device can record before reaching temperature limits, enabling users to make informed decisions about when to start recording.
