Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Display devices struggle to handle increasing data transmission amounts due to higher image resolutions, leading to limitations in image display between central and peripheral fields of view.
Innovation Solution
A display device with separate pixel configurations for high and low resolutions, driven by independent synchronization signals, allowing independent control of light-emitting elements for central and peripheral views.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If higher resolution is used to improve image quality, then image display quality is improved, but data transmission amount increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is divided into two distinct regions: a first region with first pixels arranged in a first matrix for high-resolution display, and a second region with second pixels arranged in a second matrix for low-resolution display. This segmentation allows different parts of the screen to operate at different resolutions, improving overall image quality while reducing total data transmission requirements compared to a fully high-resolution display.
Solution Approach 2:
Different regions of the display screen are assigned different quality levels: the first region provides high-resolution display for important content, while the second region provides low-resolution display for less critical content. This local quality differentiation optimizes the balance between image display quality and data transmission amount by allocating high resolution only where necessary.
2Device complexity
If the same pixels are used to display images in both central and peripheral fields of view, then device complexity is reduced, but image display capability is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The pixel array is segmented into two independent systems: first pixels for the central field of view and second pixels for the peripheral field of view. Each pixel type has its own scanning lines and data lines, allowing independent control and optimization for different viewing regions. This enables the display to adapt to different display needs in central and peripheral areas simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a dimensional distinction by creating separate pixel matrices (first matrix for central view, second matrix for peripheral view) rather than using a single unified pixel array. This dimensional separation allows independent addressing and control of pixels for different field of view requirements, enhancing display capability without excessive complexity.
