Dynamic Disclosure Range Determination for Remote Operation Image Security
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing mechanisms for remotely controlling operations, such as robots, fail to effectively withhold confidential information from operators whose disclosure level varies based on their attributes, like employment status or job type.
Innovation Solution
An information concealing method, device, and system that determine a disclosure range for an operator based on their attributes and the company's attributes, using a correspondence relationship to decide what image-related information to disclose to the operator.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If display restriction processing is applied to protect privacy, then confidential information is concealed from operators, but the mechanism cannot adapt to varying disclosure levels based on operator attributes
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic disclosure range determination based on operator attributes. The system automatically adjusts the disclosure range of image data according to the operator's employment status, job type, or other attributes, transitioning from a static restriction mechanism to a dynamic one that adapts to different operator profiles.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies different disclosure ranges to different parts of the image data based on operator attributes. Instead of uniform restriction, the system selectively discloses specific portions of image data according to the operator's attribute profile, allowing varied information access for different operator types.
2Reliability
If uniform display restriction is applied to all operators, then confidential information is protected, but information management complexity increases due to manual configuration requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically determines the disclosure range based on operator attributes without requiring manual configuration. The attribute-based automatic determination mechanism allows the system to self-manage information disclosure, eliminating the need for complex manual setup and reducing administrative burden.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of disclosure range determination from manual configuration to automatic attribute-based calculation. By using operator attributes (employment status, job type) as parameters to automatically calculate disclosure ranges, the system simplifies information management while maintaining security.
3Ease of operation
If full image data is disclosed to operators, then work operation is facilitated, but information leakage risk increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the image data into disclosed and non-disclosed portions based on operator attributes. Instead of providing full image data or complete restriction, the system divides the information into selective disclosure ranges that balance operational needs with security requirements for different operator types.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies different quality levels of information disclosure to different regions or portions of the image data. Operators with higher trust attributes receive more detailed information, while operators with lower trust attributes receive restricted information, creating local quality variations in information access.

AI summary
An information concealing method according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes determining, according to a correspondence relationship between an attribute of an operator who operates a remote operation target and an attribute of a company, a disclosure range of an image related to work to be performed by the remote operation target to the operator.
