Display Apparatus Skin Condition Comparison via Temporal Photo Segmentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display apparatuses lack the capability to easily compare skin conditions before and after a skin-related event, making it difficult for users to track changes effectively.
Innovation Solution
A display apparatus with a processor that filters and distinguishes skin-analyzed photo contents based on the time of a preset skin-related event, providing a user interface to compare skin conditions before and after the event, considering factors like face size, angle, make-up, and lighting conditions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If skin-analyzed photo contents are displayed without filtering or time-based organization, then all photo contents are available for viewing, but users cannot easily compare skin conditions before and after skin-related events
Solution Approach 1:
The photo contents are segmented into distinct groups based on temporal context - specifically, photos taken before skin-related events and photos taken after skin-related events. This segmentation allows users to easily compare skin conditions by presenting organized subsets of photos rather than a undifferentiated collection, directly addressing the need for easy comparison while preserving temporal information.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary filtering and organization of photo contents by time relative to skin-related events before presentation to the user. By pre-processing the photo collection to identify and group photos based on their temporal relationship to skin events, the system eliminates the need for users to manually search through all photos, thereby improving ease of comparison while maintaining temporal context.
2Measurement precision
If all photo contents are displayed together, then complete photo library is accessible, but users experience difficulty in tracking skin changes over time
Solution Approach 1:
Photo contents are divided into meaningful segments based on their temporal relationship to skin-related events. This segmentation creates clear before/after groups that enable precise skin change tracking by presenting relevant photos in an organized manner, rather than requiring users to navigate through an unstructured complete photo library.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces an intermediary processing layer that automatically filters, sorts, and organizes photo contents based on temporal context and skin-related event data. This intermediary function handles the complexity of photo management internally, providing users with a simplified view that enables precise skin change tracking without exposing them to the underlying complexity of the complete photo library management.
3Loss of information
If photo contents are filtered by skin analysis, then relevant skin photos are identified, but temporal context for comparison is lost without time-based organization
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary filtering of photo contents by skin analysis criteria and simultaneously organizes the filtered results by temporal context relative to skin-related events. This dual pre-processing approach identifies relevant skin photos while preserving their temporal relationships, eliminating the need for users to manually locate comparison photos and ensuring temporal context is maintained throughout the process.

AI summary
A display apparatus includes a display which displays a screen including a plurality of photo contents containing a user face and a processor configured to control the display to distinguishably display the plurality of photo contents based on a photographing time of the plurality of photo contents with reference to a time at which a preset event related with skin has occurred.
