Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional electronic devices with document reading capabilities lack the functionality to efficiently edit and convert document images into satisfying moving images, requiring operators to perform complex editing tasks and lacking seamless integration for creating animations from paper-based originals.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a storage device, display device, and control device that includes a processor to function as an editor, converter, and display controller, allowing for the editing, conversion, and display of document images in chronological order, enabling the creation of moving images and animations directly from scanned documents.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional electronic devices are used for document reading, then document images can be acquired, but the devices lack editing and conversion functionality requiring complex external processing
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines document reading, image editing, and moving image conversion functions into a single integrated system. The control device includes an editor that can modify document images and a converter that transforms edited images into moving images, eliminating the need for separate external processing devices and simplifying the overall workflow.
Solution Approach 2:
The electronic device is designed to perform multiple functions: acquiring document images through scanning, editing these images through the editor component, converting edited images into moving images through the converter component, and displaying results. This multi-functional approach allows a single device to replace what would traditionally require multiple separate tools.
2Ease of operation
If document images are edited and converted externally, then processing can be performed, but the process lacks seamless integration and user-friendliness
Solution Approach 1:
The editor is designed to perform preliminary editing operations on document images immediately after acquisition, preparing them for conversion. The converter then immediately processes these edited images into moving images. This sequential preliminary action approach eliminates waiting time and creates a seamless workflow where each processing stage is ready for the next.
Solution Approach 2:
The system maintains continuous processing flow from document image acquisition through editing to moving image conversion. The editor and converter operate in continuous sequence without interruption, ensuring that the useful action of processing document images continues uninterrupted from start to finish, maximizing operational efficiency.
3Manufacturing precision
If simple conversion is performed without integrated editing, then processing is fast, but the output quality and satisfaction are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The editor provides localized editing capabilities that allow specific modifications to document images before conversion. Users can apply targeted editing operations to specific regions or aspects of document images, ensuring high output quality for the final moving image while maintaining efficient processing through selective rather than blanket processing approaches.

AI summary
An electronic device includes a storage device, a display device, and a control device. The storage device stores a document image sequence in which a plurality of document images of original documents are arranged in chronological order. The control device functions as an editor, a converter, and a display controller. The editor performs edition processing on the document images forming the document image sequence. The converter converts the document image sequence edited by the editor to a moving image. The display controller allows the display device to display the document images forming the document image sequence in an image display area of the display device.
