Display Interlocking Code Insertion for Driver Attention Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In display interlocking systems, when the interlocking apparatus loses control, it cannot manage the image output from the display apparatus, potentially causing driver distraction and increasing the risk of vehicle accidents due to uncontrolled image transmission.
Innovation Solution
A system and method that insert codes into the output screen to control its display, allowing the display control apparatus to manage the screen output even when the interlocking apparatus loses or regains control, using an image processor, code inserting unit, transmitter, image analyzer, code interpreter, vehicle state checking unit, and output controller to assess and respond to driver attention and vehicle states.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the interlocking apparatus transmits images to the display apparatus, then the screen is shared between the interlocking apparatus and display apparatus, but when the interlocking apparatus loses control, it cannot control the image output from the display apparatus
Solution Approach 1:
A code inserting unit is introduced as an intermediary component between the interlocking apparatus and display apparatus. This unit inserts control codes into the output screen images before transmission, enabling the display apparatus to execute control commands autonomously even when the interlocking apparatus loses control. The code acts as a mediator that carries control instructions within the image data stream.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by inserting control codes into images in advance before transmission. The code inserting unit proactively embeds control instructions within the image data, so that when the display apparatus receives the images, it can immediately execute the pre-inserted codes without requiring real-time control signals from the interlocking apparatus.
2Productivity
If the interlocking apparatus transmits images that may cause driver distraction, then the display apparatus can show these images, but the driver's attention may be disrupted due to uncontrolled image output
Solution Approach 1:
The display apparatus monitors its own output and the control codes within received images, creating a feedback mechanism. When a control code indicating potential driver distraction is detected, the system automatically adjusts or blocks the output, forming a closed-loop control system that responds to the actual display state and prevents harmful effects.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies preliminary anti-action by inserting control codes that preemptively prevent harmful image output. Before potentially distracting images are displayed, the control codes embedded in the image data instruct the display apparatus to block or modify the output, counteracting the harmful effect before it can occur.
Data Source
AI summary
A display interlocking system and method that control a screen output to a display via interlocking between an interlocking apparatus and a display control apparatus. The interlocking apparatus forms an output screen and transmits the output screen to the display control apparatus. In addition, the interlocking apparatus inserts a code corresponding to an event into the output screen when the event is generated to the display control apparatus and transmits the output screen to the display control apparatus. The display control apparatus operates the output screen to be output on the display connected thereto or to be interrupted based on a driver's attention dispersion state when the code is inserted into the output screen.
