Solution Overview

Problem

Current technologies for displaying objects on screens based on real-time information often result in undesirable jumping or shaking effects due to large or small changes in the information, leading to an unsatisfactory user experience.

Innovation Solution

Determining starting and finishing points for display object locations between consecutive periods and displaying the object as sliding between these points, thereby smoothing the transition and preventing jumping or shaking.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If real-time information is extracted periodically and mapped to display locations using a preset algorithm, then the display object responds to real-time changes, but the display object jumps or shakes on the screen due to large or small changes in real-time information

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresponse to real-time information changesVSAvoiddisplay stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-calculating intermediate display locations between the current and target positions. Instead of directly jumping to the new location when real-time information changes, the system pre-determines a path of intermediate positions that the display object will traverse, ensuring smooth transitions and eliminating sudden jumps or shakes on the screen.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamics by making the display object's movement continuous and adaptive rather than static and discrete. The system dynamically adjusts the display object's position along a calculated path based on real-time information changes, creating smooth animated transitions that adapt to varying input conditions while maintaining visual stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Productivity

If the display object moves to new locations in each period based on extracted real-time information, then the display reflects real-time changes, but the movement appears step-by-step rather than smooth

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereal-time display update frequencyVSAvoidvisual smoothness
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the direct jump from current to target position into multiple smaller segments or intermediate positions. Instead of moving the display object directly from one location to another in discrete steps, the system segments the movement path into multiple intermediate positions that are calculated and traversed sequentially, creating the appearance of smooth continuous motion while maintaining real-time update frequency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements continuity of useful action by ensuring the display object moves continuously along a calculated path rather than making discrete jumps. The system maintains continuous motion by interpolating intermediate positions and updating the display object's location smoothly across multiple frames, preserving the real-time responsiveness while eliminating the step-by-step visual effect.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

AI summary

The present application discloses a method and an apparatus for displaying a display object according to real-time information, comprising: acquiring location information corresponding to real-time information for a certain period; determining a starting point according to the location information acquired in a previous period, and determining a finishing point according to the location information acquired in a current period; displaying a display object as sliding between the starting point and the finishing point. The technical solution of the present application prevents the phenomenon of jumping when relatively large changes occur to real-time information and the phenomenon of shaking when very small changes occur to real-time information, thereby improving the display effect of display objects.
