Display Control Unit Adjusting Additional Image Density for Mobile Terminal Visibility
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In mobile terminal devices, displaying page numbers alongside multiple images compromises image visibility due to limited display area, and existing methods of adding identifiers during scroll processing do not enhance identifiability of non-scrolling images.
Innovation Solution
The method involves displaying a first image and a second image with additional identifying images along a first axis in a still state, using different display modes for the additional images based on their positions and densities to optimize visibility without overlapping.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If identifiers such as page numbers are added to all of a plurality of images displayed, then the identifiability of images is improved, but the visibility of the images is compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by making the display mode of additional images position-dependent. Images closer to the center of the display receive additional images with higher display modes (higher density, larger size) while images at the edges receive additional images with lower display modes, optimizing both identifiability and visibility across different spatial locations.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes display parameters (density, size, position) of additional images based on their position relative to the display center. The display control unit adjusts these parameters dynamically, creating a gradient effect where central images have more prominent identifiers and peripheral images have less prominent identifiers, resolving the contradiction between identifiability and visibility.
2Area of stationary object
If identifiers are added to images under scroll processing only, then the visibility of images is maintained, but the identifiability of non-scrolling images is not improved
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extends identifier display to all images in the plurality, not just those under scroll processing. By applying local quality principles, it ensures that each image receives appropriate identifier visibility based on its position, thereby improving identifiability of non-scrolling images while maintaining overall visibility through position-based parameter adjustment.
3Loss of information
If multiple additional images are displayed along a first axis, then the identifiability of multiple images is improved, but overlapping of additional images occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the position parameter of additional images along the first axis based on their corresponding image's position. By adjusting the display position of each additional image individually, the system prevents overlapping while maintaining clear identifiability for multiple images simultaneously.

AI summary
An image display method includes displaying a first image and a second image on a display and, when the first image to which a first additional image identifying the first image is added and the second image to which a second additional image identifying the second image is added are displayed on the display along a first axis in a still state, making a display mode different between the first additional image added to the first image and the second additional image added to the second image.
