Dynamic Image Control for User Engagement Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for extracting user desires in product and service development are inefficient in capturing dynamic changes in user engagement and excitement during workshops, leading to incomplete or inaccurate representation of user visions.
Innovation Solution
An image control system that utilizes sensing devices to detect environmental and user state information, such as acoustic pressure and pulse rates, to identify key moments during workshops and dynamically change the display mode of selection option cards to enhance visibility and attention, thereby aligning with heightened engagement periods.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If selection option information is displayed in a static manner on the display device, then the display is simple and easy to implement, but user attention and engagement during key moments are not enhanced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by changing the display mode of selection option information from static to dynamic based on detected user state. The display control unit changes display parameters (such as highlighting, size, or position) when the detection unit identifies that a user is in an excited state, making the display adaptive to user engagement levels and enhancing attention during key moments.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes display parameters (such as brightness, contrast, size, or position) of selection option information based on detected user excitement levels. When the detection unit measures physiological or behavioral indicators indicating user excitement, the control unit adjusts display parameters to enhance visibility and attract user attention during important decision moments.
2Measurement precision
If detection devices are added to detect user state and environmental information, then user engagement can be captured more accurately, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a detection unit as an intermediary component that bridges user state and display control. This detection unit captures physiological or behavioral indicators (such as heart rate, facial expressions, or speech patterns) and translates them into signals that the display control unit can use to adjust display parameters, enabling accurate engagement measurement without requiring complex direct control mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements a feedback loop where the detection unit continuously monitors user state and feeds this information back to the display control unit. Based on this feedback, the control unit dynamically adjusts display parameters to match user engagement levels, creating a closed-loop system that adapts to real-time user responses during workshops.
3Loss of information
If display mode changes are implemented dynamically based on detection information, then user awareness of options increases, but processing and control complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-defining display parameter adjustments and thresholds for different user states. The system is configured in advance with rules that map specific detection results (such as heart rate ranges or facial expression patterns) to corresponding display parameter changes, reducing the need for complex real-time decision-making during actual use.
Data Source
AI summary
An image control method includes referencing a first storage section where selection option information, for which a selection operation is received on a display device, is stored in association with a selection timing, and a second storage section where detection information, detected by a detection device that detects at least one of a state of a area at which the display device is disposed or a state of a user, is stored in association with detection time information; and identifying an item of selection option information stored at the first storage section in association with a timing that corresponds to the time information stored at the second storage section in association with detection information indicating a predetermined state; and effecting control so as to display the identified item of selection option information on the display device using a different display mode from that of other displayed selection option information.
