Image Display Apparatus Finger Proximity Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing image display apparatuses do not effectively manage dynamic changes on the display when a user's finger approaches or is about to perform an operation, potentially reducing user operability by inadvertently enlarging or altering the display content.
Innovation Solution
An image display apparatus with a detection section that uses a line-of-sight detecting unit and a change processing section to detect user finger proximity or operations, and adjust or stop display changes accordingly, ensuring that dynamic processes like enlargement are halted when a user is likely to interact with the display.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the image display apparatus automatically enlarges or changes display content to improve visibility, then the display adaptability is improved, but the user operability deteriorates when the user's finger is approaching or about to interact with the display
Solution Approach 1:
The detection section detects the user's finger approach or operation in advance before the change processing section executes display changes. By performing preliminary detection of user intent, the system can conditionally suppress automatic enlargement or other display changes, preventing interference with the user's intended interaction while maintaining automatic display adaptation during normal operation
Solution Approach 2:
The system establishes a feedback loop where the detection section continuously monitors user interaction state and provides real-time feedback to the change processing section. When the detection section identifies that a user's finger is approaching or making contact with the display, it signals the change processing section to halt or suppress display changes, creating a responsive control mechanism that adapts display behavior based on detected user state
2Adaptability or versatility
If the image display apparatus performs dynamic changes like enlargement to enhance display functionality, then the display versatility is improved, but the reliability of user interaction deteriorates due to inadvertent alterations
Solution Approach 1:
The detection section performs preliminary detection of user interaction intent before the change processing section executes display modifications. By detecting finger approach or contact in advance, the system can suppress automatic enlargement or other changes that would otherwise interfere with the user's intended selection, ensuring reliable user interaction while preserving display versatility during normal operation
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies preliminary anti-action by detecting user interaction state and preemptively suppressing display changes that would conflict with user intent. When the detection section identifies a user's finger approaching or contacting the display, it triggers the change processing section to halt enlargement or other modifications, preventing harmful interference with user interaction while maintaining display functionality

AI summary
An image display apparatus includes an image display, a receiving unit, a detection section, and a change processing section. The image display displays an image. The receiving unit receives an operation performed by a user on information displayed on the image display. The detection section detects a user's finger approaching the receiving unit or an operation performed by the user on the receiving unit. The change processing section performs a change process on the image displayed on the image display, and stops or does not perform the change process when the detection section detects the approaching or the operation.
