Solution Overview

Problem

Existing digital device technologies fail to provide a holistic and real-time improved viewing experience for users with unique vision needs, as they are limited to magnification adjustments based on distance and do not account for various vision parameters such as light intensity, glare, and color, leading to poor readability and viewing difficulties.

Innovation Solution

A system comprising sensors, a processor, and a display that captures sensor parameters to determine vision parameters, derive a base viewability index, create a user profile, and dynamically adjust display settings based on a comparison between the base and dynamic viewability indices to enhance the viewing experience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If magnification and display settings are adjusted based on distance only, then font size is increased, but other vision parameters such as light intensity, glare, and color are not accounted for resulting in poor readability

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevision parameter detection accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system integrates multiple sensors (light sensor, proximity sensor, gyroscope, accelerometer, camera) into a single digital device that performs multiple functions: detecting ambient light intensity, viewing distance, device orientation, and user facial features. This multi-functional approach allows comprehensive vision parameter detection without requiring separate dedicated devices for each parameter.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces a processor as an intermediary that receives raw sensor data, processes it to determine vision parameters, and generates adjusted display settings. This intermediary component coordinates the complex interactions between multiple sensors and the display system, managing the overall vision enhancement process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If lenses are used to correct vision, then reading ability is improved, but additional assets need to be carried and worn continuously

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveviewing easeVSAvoidadditional accessories required
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The digital device performs vision correction functions autonomously by using its built-in sensors to detect viewing conditions and automatically adjusting display parameters. The system serves the user's vision needs without requiring external lenses or accessories, making the device self-sufficient for vision enhancement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system combines vision correction functionality with the existing digital device, merging multiple functions (display, sensing, processing) into a single integrated unit. This eliminates the need for separate vision correction accessories like lenses, as the device itself provides both display and vision enhancement capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Adaptability or versatility

If display settings are adjusted statically, then initial viewing comfort is achieved, but real-time environmental changes and user movements are not accommodated

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveenvironmental adaptationVSAvoidprocessing speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts display settings in real-time based on continuous sensor input. As the user moves or environmental conditions change, the sensors detect these changes and the processor continuously updates display parameters such as brightness, contrast, and font size, making the system adaptive rather than static.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements a feedback loop where sensors continuously monitor viewing conditions and user position, the processor analyzes this data to determine optimal display settings, and the display applies these settings. This closed-loop feedback mechanism ensures real-time adaptation to changing conditions while maintaining efficient processing through optimized algorithms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
