Solution Overview

Problem

Display apparatuses struggle to maintain the visibility of display targets when screen transitions occur, as the arrangement and inclusion of display targets change, affecting user experience and operability.

Innovation Solution

A display apparatus with a switching unit that ensures a certain ratio of display targets from the first screen are included on the second screen, using a CPU-controlled system to manage screen transitions and arrangement changes based on user authentication and operation history.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If screen transition is performed to change display arrangement, then display variety and adaptability are improved, but display target visibility and user familiarity deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay arrangement flexibilityVSAvoiddisplay target visibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of operation history before screen transition to predict which display targets will be needed, and pre-arranges their positions on the new screen to maintain visibility and reduce the need for scrolling or searching.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system continuously monitors user operations and uses this feedback to dynamically adjust display arrangements. By analyzing operation patterns, the system learns user preferences and optimizes display target positioning to maintain visibility while enabling screen transition benefits.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Adaptability or versatility

If display arrangement is changed on screen transition, then screen functionality is improved, but operability and user experience deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescreen functionalityVSAvoidoperability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

Different regions or zones of the display screen are assigned different functions or display characteristics based on user behavior patterns. Frequently accessed display targets are placed in optimal positions while maintaining overall screen functionality, creating localized optimizations without requiring complete layout changes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Productivity

If display targets are reorganized during screen transition, then display optimization is improved, but information continuity deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay optimizationVSAvoidinformation continuity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

Before executing screen transition, the system preliminarily determines the optimal arrangement of display targets based on predicted user needs, ensuring that important information maintains continuity and visibility across the transition while still achieving optimization goals.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A display apparatus includes a switching unit that switches a display state of a second screen such that display targets displayed in a first screen are included at a certain ratio in a case where the first screen transitions to the second screen according to an operator and display targets displayed in the second screen and an arrangement of the display targets are changed from the display targets displayed on the first screen and an arrangement of the display targets.
