Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple display systems are arranged to perform cooperative display, then the advertising effect and customer attraction are improved, but the setting complexity and reconfiguration effort increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The display system automatically detects nearby display systems through proximity detection and establishes cooperative display relationships without requiring manual configuration. The system self-organizes by detecting projection areas and automatically setting master-slave relationships, eliminating the need for complex manual setup and reconfiguration when changing content or arrangements.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary detection of projection areas and display system positions before establishing cooperative display. By pre-detecting the environment and automatically configuring settings in advance, the system prepares the cooperative display state proactively, avoiding complex on-demand setup procedures.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple display systems are arranged to perform cooperative display, then the advertising effect and customer attraction are improved, but the reconfiguration effort and costs increase when changing content
Solution Approach 1:
When content changes or display systems are moved, the system automatically re-detects proximity and projection areas, then self-reconfigures the cooperative display settings without requiring manual intervention. This automatic reconfiguration process significantly reduces the time and effort needed when changing content or arrangements.
Solution Approach 2:
The cooperative display configuration is made dynamic rather than static. The system continuously monitors proximity detection results and automatically adjusts master-slave relationships and projection settings in real-time based on current display system positions and content requirements, enabling flexible reconfiguration without manual effort.
3Manufacturing precision
If manual setting and reordering of display systems is required for cooperative display, then display control precision is maintained, but operation ease and user convenience deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically performs detection, identification, and configuration of cooperative display relationships without manual intervention. The proximity detection section automatically identifies display systems, the control section calculates optimal arrangements, and the system self-configures projection settings, maintaining precision while eliminating manual operation complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses proximity detection feedback to automatically adjust cooperative display settings. By continuously monitoring the spatial relationship between display systems and using this feedback to automatically configure projection parameters and master-slave relationships, the system maintains precise control while removing the need for manual setting procedures.

AI summary
A display system having a projector and a projection plate and adapted to project an image from the projector toward the projection plate to thereby display the image includes a proximity detection section adapted to detect a proximity of another display system, which has a projector and a projection plate, and is adapted to project an image from the projector toward the projection plate to thereby display the image, and a control section adapted to make the image, which is displayed on either one of the projection plate and the projection plate of the another display system, be displayed on the other of the projection plate and the projection plate of the another display system in a case in which the proximity detection section detects the proximity of the another display system.
