Display Device Automatic Screen Split Orientation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional screen splitting technologies require additional operations to adjust the display direction of split screens, which can be inconvenient, especially when the intended orientation differs from the operator's perspective.
Innovation Solution
A display device with an operation detection unit, analysis unit, and control unit that detects finger movements to automatically orient newly created display regions in the direction of the operator, allowing intuitive screen splitting without the need for additional settings or adjustments.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If conventional screen splitting operation is used, then screen splitting can be performed through intuitive finger movement, but additional operation is required to change display direction when the split screen orientation differs from the intended direction
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically determines the display direction of the split screen based on the operator's location and the direction in which the operator is facing, eliminating the need for manual adjustment operations. The display device serves itself by inferring the intended display orientation from the operator's physical state and environment.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses the operation detection unit to detect the operator's location and facing direction, then feeds this information back to the display control unit to automatically adjust the split screen display direction. This closed-loop feedback mechanism ensures the display orientation matches the operator's intent without requiring additional operations.
2Ease of operation
If conventional screen splitting operation is used, then screen splitting can be performed through intuitive finger movement, but the display direction may not match the operator's intended orientation
Solution Approach 1:
The display device automatically adapts the split screen display direction to match the operator's intended orientation by detecting the operator's location and facing direction. The system self-adjusts without requiring manual intervention, making it adaptable to different operator positions and orientations.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the display direction parameter of the split screen based on detected operator parameters (location and facing direction). By dynamically adjusting the display direction parameter according to the operator's physical state, the system achieves versatile adaptation to different operational scenarios.
3Manufacturing precision
If additional operation is required to adjust display direction, then precise display orientation can be achieved, but the overall operation becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The system maintains precise display orientation by automatically determining it based on operator location and facing direction, rather than requiring manual adjustment operations. This self-service approach preserves precision while eliminating the complexity of additional operations needed to achieve the same result.
