Display Touch Area Segmentation for Playback Interruption Prevention
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Touch-type display apparatuses often experience interruptions during motion picture playback due to unintended touch operations, which disrupt the viewing experience.
Innovation Solution
A display apparatus and method that includes a request receiving unit for deactivation signals, an area distinguishing unit to divide the display area into first and second areas, and an input receiving unit to process touch operations based on the operation mode and deactivation requests, thereby deactivating touch inputs during motion picture playback to prevent interruptions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If touch input signals are fully deactivated during motion picture playback, then interruption from unintended touch operations is prevented, but user interaction capability is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The display area is divided into a first area (edge region within first distance from edges) and a second area (remaining region). During motion picture playback, touch input signals are deactivated only in the first area while remaining active in the second area. This local differentiation allows the system to prevent unintended touches at edges while preserving user interaction capability in the center region.
2Reliability
If the display area is divided into multiple areas with different touch sensitivity, then unintended edge touches are prevented, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display area is segmented into a first area (edge region) and a second area (central region) based on distance from the edges. This segmentation allows the system to apply different touch input signal processing rules to different regions, preventing unintended touches at edges while maintaining simplicity through clear geometric boundaries.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If touch input signals are deactivated only in the first area during playback, then edge-related unintended operations are prevented, but processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary determination of the operation mode (whether motion picture is being played back) before processing touch input signals. Based on this preliminary determination, the system pre-configures the touch input signal processing to deactivate signals in the first area during playback, avoiding the need for complex real-time conditional processing during touch events.

AI summary
A display apparatus includes: a request receiving unit configured to receive a deactivation request signal to deactivate touch input signals; an area distinguishing unit configured to divide a display area of the display apparatus into a first area and a second area; a mode determining unit configured to determine whether an operation mode of the display apparatus is a motion picture playback mode; and an input receiving unit configured to process touch operations based on the association from the area distinguishing unit, the operation mode of the display apparatus, and the deactivation request signal.
