Display Connection Detection for Automatic Multi-Screen Resolution Sync
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display systems require manual resetting of resolutions and screen sizes when new displays are connected or existing displays are disconnected, causing user inconvenience.
Innovation Solution
A display apparatus with a memory, sensor, and processor that detects connection or disconnection of external displays, generates integrated apparatus information including resolution and screen size, and transmits this information to a source apparatus without direct connection, allowing seamless integration and adjustment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If each display apparatus is directly connected to the source apparatus, then the connection is stable and reliable, but the user must manually reset resolutions and screen sizes when connecting or disconnecting devices, increasing operation complexity and user effort
Solution Approach 1:
The display apparatus automatically detects connection status changes through sensors and self-configures resolution and screen size parameters by exchanging apparatus information with connected devices, eliminating the need for manual user intervention in resolution resetting and screen configuration
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements automatic feedback loops where the display apparatus continuously monitors connection status, receives apparatus information from connected devices, and dynamically adjusts display parameters based on the detected configuration, ensuring automatic adaptation without manual intervention
2Manufacturing precision
If manual resolution resetting is performed for each display apparatus, then the display configuration is accurate, but the process time increases and user convenience decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The display apparatus pre-configures resolution and screen size parameters by automatically exchanging apparatus information with connected display devices upon connection detection, performing the configuration action before the user needs to use the display, thereby eliminating manual setup time while ensuring accurate configuration
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs self-configuration of display parameters by automatically processing apparatus information exchange and resolution setting, eliminating the need for manual user intervention in the configuration process while maintaining configuration accuracy
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple display apparatuses are connected to the source apparatus, then the display versatility increases, but the complexity of managing resolutions and screen sizes across multiple devices increases
Solution Approach 1:
Each display apparatus independently performs self-configuration by automatically detecting connection status and exchanging apparatus information with the source apparatus, allowing multiple devices to be managed autonomously without requiring centralized manual configuration, thereby reducing overall system complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The configuration management is segmented and distributed to individual display apparatuses, where each device independently handles its own resolution and screen size settings through automatic apparatus information exchange, eliminating the need for unified manual management of multiple devices

AI summary
A display apparatus includes a memory storing first apparatus information corresponding to the display apparatus and instructions, a sensor, a display, a communication interface, and at least one processor operatively connected to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to, based on detecting connection with an external display apparatus through the sensor, receive second apparatus information corresponding to the external display apparatus from the external display apparatus, generate integrated apparatus information based on the first apparatus information and the second apparatus information, and control the communication interface to transmit the integrated apparatus information to a source apparatus.
