Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Setting a dual display mode in existing display devices requires a mouse or keyboard connected to the computer main body, making it difficult for unskilled users to configure.
Innovation Solution
A display device with an input part for setting image output modes, a display part for showing a menu screen, a storage part for storing corresponding code information, and a control part that transmits this information to the computer main body, allowing users to set dual display modes without external input devices.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a mouse or keyboard connected to the computer main body is used to set dual display mode, then the dual display mode can be configured, but it becomes difficult for unskilled users to set
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary device (remote controller or smartphone application) that mediates between the user and the display device to set the dual display mode. This intermediary provides a simplified interface for users to select and configure display modes without needing to directly operate the computer main body, thus improving ease of operation while managing complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The display device is equipped with a built-in interface (such as an on-screen display menu accessible through the input signal) that allows users to directly configure dual display mode settings without requiring external input devices connected to the computer. This self-service capability enables unskilled users to easily set the dual display mode through intuitive on-screen options.
2Adaptability or versatility
If dual display mode is set using computer main body input devices, then image signals can be transmitted to multiple display devices, but the configuration process becomes inaccessible to unskilled users
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs an intermediary device (remote controller or smartphone application) that simplifies the configuration process for adapting multiple display devices. The intermediary provides user-friendly controls that allow unskilled users to easily select and configure dual display modes, thereby maintaining versatility while improving accessibility.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent makes the display device universal by enabling it to function both as a display device and as a configuration device for dual display mode. The built-in interface allows the display device to directly receive and process configuration commands, making it accessible to unskilled users while maintaining the ability to connect and manage multiple display devices for multi-tasking scenarios.
