Solution Overview

Problem

Current voice input interfaces for image viewing services are limited to simple operations and lack clarity, making it difficult for users to understand what voice inputs to use for more complex interactions.

Innovation Solution

A display apparatus that receives voice inputs and displays corresponding text information related to both visible and hidden images, allowing users to easily navigate and change images by referencing on-screen text, with features like automatic text generation and intuitive graphic effects for user input recognition.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the voice input range is broadened to support more complex operations, then the versatility of the interface is improved, but the user's ability to understand what voice inputs to make deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevoice input rangeVSAvoiduser understanding
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system displays text information corresponding to available voice inputs on the screen, providing visual feedback that guides users on what voice commands can be issued. This feedback mechanism resolves the contradiction by making the broadened voice input range understandable through visual cues.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

Text information serves as an intermediary between the voice input system and the user. Instead of directly presenting voice command options, the system converts them into visual text representations that users can easily understand, thereby maintaining ease of operation while supporting versatile voice inputs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If text information about hidden images is displayed to guide voice inputs, then the ease of operation is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevoice input guidanceVSAvoidsystem structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The processor performs multiple functions using existing components: it generates text information from image data, manages display content, and processes voice inputs. By making the existing system multi-functional rather than adding separate dedicated components, the solution improves ease of operation while minimizing increases in device complexity.

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