Editable Function Key Configuration for Display Devices
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing control devices, such as remote controllers, are not adequately adapted to the increasing functions of display apparatuses, leading to inconvenient and frequent key operations for users to access desired functions.
Innovation Solution
A display apparatus that includes a user input interface, a remote controller with editable function keys, and a controller that displays a key editing page to allow users to select and configure function keys, enabling direct access to associated functions without frequent key presses.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the number of functions on the display apparatus increases, then the functionality and versatility of the display apparatus improve, but the ease of operation deteriorates because users need to press keys frequently to access desired functions
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by automatically obtaining the user's location information and pre-selecting a navigation application corresponding to that location before the user explicitly requests it. This anticipatory approach reduces the number of operations users need to perform, directly addressing the contradiction between increasing functionality and maintaining ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The display apparatus performs self-service by automatically obtaining location information, determining the user's position, and selecting appropriate navigation applications without requiring manual input from the user. This automation reduces operational complexity while enhancing the system's functional capabilities.
2Adaptability or versatility
If more functions are added to the display apparatus, then the versatility improves, but the device complexity increases leading to more frequent key operations required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical key-pressing system with an automated electronic system that uses location information to trigger application selection. Instead of requiring users to navigate through multiple keys and menus, the system automatically detects location and launches appropriate navigation applications, thereby reducing operational complexity while maintaining functional versatility.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameter of user interaction from manual key presses to automatic location-based triggering. By using location information as the triggering parameter, the system eliminates the need for complex key sequences while supporting multiple navigation functions, thus resolving the contradiction between function versatility and operational complexity.

AI summary
Provided in the present application is a display device. When a user needs to set a certain function key of a control apparatus, the user can enter a page display command into a display device, so as to control the display device to display a key editing page. After the user selects, on the key editing page, a target key option corresponding to a target function key, the display device can display a configuration page corresponding to the target key option.
