Dynamic Display Object Adjustment for Variable Screen Sizes
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display control methods fail to dynamically adjust display objects in response to changes in screen size, leading to suboptimal visibility and operability, particularly in human-machine interfaces like touch panels, where visibility and usability degrade with dynamic changes in screen size.
Innovation Solution
A display control device and method that dynamically adjust the size, position, and attribute information of display objects based on changes in screen size, using a combination of hardware sensors and software algorithms to determine the optimal display configuration according to user environment and situation, such as traveling speed and user adaptation information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If display objects are simply downsized or upsized when split region size changes, then the display object size changes, but the display is not sufficiently in conformity with dynamic change in size of the split region and optimal display is not provided
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the display control system adaptive to dynamic changes in split region size. Instead of static display object sizing, the system continuously adjusts display object attributes (size, position, type) based on real-time split region dimensions and user situation, ensuring optimal display conformity throughout operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes multiple display parameters simultaneously in response to split region size changes, including display object size, position coordinates, and attribute information. This multi-parameter adjustment approach enables the display to conform comprehensively to dynamic screen changes while maintaining visibility and operability.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple display parameters are adjusted simultaneously to conform to dynamic screen size changes, then optimal display is achieved, but the control complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-defining multiple display modes with specific attribute combinations (e.g., first display mode, second display mode, third display mode with different object sizes and positions). When split region size changes, the system selects from these pre-configured modes rather than calculating optimal parameters from scratch, reducing control complexity while maintaining adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback by continuously monitoring split region size changes and user situation, then adjusting display object parameters accordingly. This closed-loop control ensures optimal display conformity while using feedback information to guide parameter selection, preventing unnecessary complexity through data-driven decision making.
3Area of stationary object
If display objects are trimmed or hidden to fit changing screen size, then the display object fits the screen, but information completeness is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dimensionality change by utilizing multiple display dimensions and layers. Instead of simply trimming or hiding display objects in the primary display area, the system can reposition objects within the split region, adjust their vertical/horizontal positioning, or display different information types in different display modes, thereby preserving information completeness while adapting to size constraints.

AI summary
Display of display objects is changed as appropriate in accordance of situation change. A display control device includes: a display control unit configured to set an arrangement region on a display region of a display and control display of at least one or more display objects arranged in the arrangement region, the arrangement region having a virtual three-or-more-dimensional coordination system; and a situation determination unit configured to determine at least one situation of environment and a user, wherein the display control unit modifies the arrangement region in accordance with change of the situation.
