Display Apparatus Proximity Mirror Mode and Image Scaling
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional display apparatuses lack advanced user interaction features and functionality beyond simple image display, particularly in integrating mirror functions and adaptive user interface responses.
Innovation Solution
A display apparatus that dynamically adjusts its image display and mirror functions based on user proximity and interaction, using a processor to control image size, position, and functionality, including voice recognition and data authentication, while utilizing a combination of sensors and a touch panel for intuitive user interface operations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Shape
If the display apparatus is made slimmer and simpler, then the interior design function is improved, but the interaction functionality and user interface capabilities deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The display apparatus integrates multiple functions including display, mirror mode, voice recognition, gesture recognition, and proximity sensing within a single thin device. The display unit can switch between displaying images and functioning as a mirror, while the processor handles multiple interaction modes (voice, gesture, touch) to maintain versatility despite the slim form factor.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the display apparatus performs mirror mode operation with power turned off, then the practical utility is improved, but the user interaction capabilities deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The display apparatus prepares for interaction by detecting user approach through proximity sensors before full activation. When a user approaches, the system transitions from mirror mode to display mode, activates voice recognition, and prepares the user interface in advance, enabling seamless interaction while maintaining the mirror function when not in use.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the display apparatus integrates multiple interaction features, then the user experience is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple interaction technologies (voice recognition, gesture recognition, proximity sensing, touch panel) into a single integrated system controlled by one processor. The display unit serves dual purposes as both display and mirror, and various sensors are merged into a cohesive interaction framework that manages multiple functions through unified control logic.
Data Source
AI summary
A display apparatus, a driving method of a display apparatus, and a computer readable recording are provided. The method includes displaying an image on an entire screen area of a display unit, and in response to a user or a user device approaching (e.g., being detected by) the display unit, controlling the display unit to reduce the image and display the reduced image in a first area of the screen area and to control a second area of the screen area other than the first area to operate as a mirror.
