Display Apparatus Scrolling Speed Adjustment for Missed Items
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display technologies require operators to manually mark points in lists, which consumes time and effort, and scrolling displays often stop at marked points, reducing operability when finding different items.
Innovation Solution
A display apparatus and method that accepts scroll gestures, identifies the last item in a list, and provides a second scrolling display from the beginning, highlighting items likely missed by adjusting speed or display manner.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If the scrolling display is stopped at a previously marked point, then it becomes possible for the operator to easily find the desired item, but the operability decreases in finding an item different from the item corresponding to the marked point
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary analysis of scrolling behavior to identify items likely to be missed before the second scrolling display begins. This allows the system to prepare differentiated display parameters in advance, ensuring both marked and unmarked items are optimally presented without requiring manual intervention.
Solution Approach 2:
The display speed is dynamically adjusted during the second scrolling display based on whether items were marked or unmarked. Marked items are displayed at a first speed while unmarked items are displayed at a second speed, allowing the system to adapt to different information importance levels and maintain high operability throughout the scrolling process.
2Quantity of substance
If a large number of items are enumerated in the list or similar items are continued in the list, then the list contains comprehensive information, but the operator may have difficulty finding a desired item from among the plurality of items
Solution Approach 1:
Different display parameters (speed, highlighting) are applied to different local regions of the list based on the marking status of individual items. Marked items receive enhanced visual treatment and different scrolling speeds compared to unmarked items, making it easier to distinguish and locate desired items even in large lists with many similar entries.
3Ease of operation
If the scrolling display is stopped at the marked point, then the item finding process is simplified, but time is consumed in returning to the marked point
Solution Approach 1:
The second scrolling display continues from the beginning item without stopping or pausing at the marked point, maintaining continuous motion throughout the entire list. This eliminates the time loss associated with stopping and resuming at marked points while still enabling easy item finding through differentiated display parameters for marked versus unmarked items.

AI summary
A display apparatus (1) includes a display section (14), a gesture acceptance section (102), and a display control section (101). In providing a second scrolling display of a list, the display control section (101) identifies, among a plurality of items enumerated in the list, an item likely to have been missed by a user in a previous scrolling display and allows the display section to provide the scrolling display of the identified item at a speed different from a speed specified by a scroll gesture accepted by the gesture acceptance section (102) or in a display manner different from that of the other items.
