Integrated Display and Image Pickup for Note-Content Linking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems for linking handwritten notes with corresponding presentation materials during meetings require complex setups and processes, including cameras and large-scale systems, making it difficult to easily reference the correspondence between notes and displayed content.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus with a display unit, image pickup unit, and storage control unit that photographs a recording medium at predetermined timings, linking the images with the displayed content for easy reference and storage.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If a camera and large-scale system are used to photograph notes and link with presentation materials, then the correspondence between notes and displayed content can be established, but the device complexity and ease of operation deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the note photographing function and presentation material display function into a single integrated system. The image pickup unit photographs notes while the display unit shows presentation materials, and the storage control unit links them together, eliminating the need for separate complex systems and manual collation processes.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically photographs notes at predetermined timings and links them with corresponding presentation materials without requiring manual intervention. The storage control unit autonomously performs the linking process, eliminating the need for users to manually collate and match notes with materials.
2Loss of information
If manual collation of picked-up images with region image data is performed, then the correspondence can be found, but the ease of operation and time required deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs the linking action in advance by automatically photographing notes at predetermined timings and pre-linking them with corresponding presentation materials. This preliminary automation eliminates the need for manual collation later, saving time and effort.
Solution Approach 2:
The storage control unit uses feedback from the image pickup unit and display unit to automatically establish correspondences. The system continuously monitors and links notes with their corresponding presentation materials, providing real-time feedback that eliminates manual verification needs.
