Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional character string display methods are static and cannot meet the requirement for dynamic changes, and they often restrict the upper and lower limits of numerals, which are not adaptable to dynamic display needs.

Innovation Solution

A character string display method and apparatus that acquires and analyzes character string data to generate digit sequence and number of digit information, allowing for dynamic display of a picture set corresponding to each character, enabling dynamic change and unrestricted numeral limits by displaying digits sequentially according to their place value.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a conventional static display method is used, then the display is simple to implement, but it cannot meet the requirement for dynamic changes of character strings

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedynamic display capabilityVSAvoiddisplay system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the character string into individual character units, each with its own picture set. The display system divides the character string data into multiple character data elements, allowing each character to be displayed independently through its corresponding picture set, thereby enabling dynamic display while maintaining manageable system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic display by sequentially showing different pictures from each character's picture set based on timing information. The system transitions from static character display to dynamic sequential picture display, allowing character strings to change over time while controlling complexity through structured data organization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Adaptability or versatility

If Flash animation is used for dynamic display, then dynamic change capability is achieved, but upper and lower limits of numerals cannot be restricted

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedynamic change capabilityVSAvoidnumeral limit control
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent incorporates analysis results that provide feedback on character string data, including digit sequence information and number of digit information. This feedback mechanism allows the system to control and restrict numeral display within defined limits, preventing unbounded numeral changes while maintaining dynamic display capability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses parameter-based control where character string data is analyzed to extract specific parameters (digit sequence, number of digits) that govern the display behavior. By changing and controlling these parameters, the system can dynamically display numerals while restricting them within acceptable ranges, avoiding the uncontrolled numeral changes possible with Flash animation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Adaptability or versatility

If character string data is analyzed to generate digit sequence and number of digit information, then dynamic display adaptability is improved, but data processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedynamic display adaptabilityVSAvoiddata processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary analysis of character string data before display, extracting digit sequence information and number of digit information in advance. This preliminary action organizes the data structure and identifies key parameters, reducing the complexity of real-time processing during actual display operations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
