Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display devices require manual adjustment of the display unit's height and tilt angle to match the user's posture, which is inconvenient and time-consuming.
Innovation Solution
A display device equipped with a signal input unit, a display unit featuring a camera, a supporter, a posture adjustment driving unit, and a controller that uses artificial intelligence to automatically adjust the display unit's posture based on inferred user posture from camera images.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual adjustment of display unit posture is used, then device complexity is reduced, but ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The display device automatically adjusts its own posture based on user posture detection by the camera and AI model, without requiring manual operation. The system serves itself by detecting user position and automatically controlling the posture adjustment driving unit to optimize display angle and height.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical adjustment with an automated system combining camera-based user posture detection, AI model processing, and electronic control of the posture adjustment driving unit. This substitutes human mechanical interaction with an automated sensing and control system.
2Loss of time
If manual adjustment of display unit posture is used, then device complexity is reduced, but loss of time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary detection of user posture and automatically adjusts display unit posture before the user needs to view the display. The camera continuously monitors user position, and the AI model predicts optimal display posture in advance, eliminating the need for users to spend time on manual adjustments.
Solution Approach 2:
The system establishes a feedback loop where the camera continuously detects user posture, the AI model processes this information to determine optimal display angle and height, and the posture adjustment driving unit implements changes. This real-time feedback mechanism eliminates time loss by automatically adapting to user needs.
3Ease of operation
If automatic posture adjustment using AI model is implemented, then ease of operation is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The controller integrates multiple functions into a single component: it controls the posture adjustment driving unit, processes camera images through the AI model, calculates optimal display posture, and manages the overall automatic adjustment system. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate control units while improving ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The AI model serves as an intermediary between the camera's raw image data and the posture adjustment driving unit's control signals. It processes user posture information and translates it into optimal display unit posture parameters, simplifying the control architecture while enabling intelligent automatic adjustment.
4Loss of time
If automatic posture adjustment using AI model is implemented, then loss of time is reduced, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The camera continuously captures user posture information, and the AI model continuously processes this data to maintain optimal display unit posture. This continuous automatic adjustment eliminates time loss by ensuring the display is always positioned correctly without requiring periodic manual intervention.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts display unit posture based on real-time user position detection. The AI model continuously updates optimal posture parameters as user position changes, and the posture adjustment driving unit implements dynamic changes to maintain optimal viewing conditions, reducing time loss from manual readjustments.

AI summary
A display device including a display unit having a display panel and a camera; a posture adjustment driving unit configured to adjust a posture of the display unit; and a controller configured to control the camera to capture a first image of a viewer viewing the display unit when the display unit is positioned at a first height, control the posture adjustment driving unit to move the display unit to a second height different than the first height, control the camera to capture a second image of the viewer viewing the display unit when the display unit is positioned at the second height, correct at least one of the first image and the second image based on orientation information of the display unit on capturing the first image and the second image, generate a 3D body mesh of the viewer using the first image and the second image, calculate a viewer-optimized display unit posture setting based on the 3D body mesh, and control the posture adjustment driving unit to move the display unit to a height corresponding to the viewer-optimized display unit posture setting.
