Dynamic Picture Slide Show Display Based on Weighting Values
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional digital picture slide shows lack a sophisticated and convenient method to display pictures with varying display characteristics based on user preferences and image significance, leading to a uniform and unengaging presentation.
Innovation Solution
A method and display device that receive and analyze pictures using weighting values derived from browsing status, viewing statistics, ratings, and metadata to determine display durations, orders, and effects, allowing for personalized and dynamic slide show presentations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If uniform display duration is used for all pictures, then the slide show is simple and easy to implement, but the presentation becomes unengaging and fails to reflect user preferences
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by transitioning from a static uniform display duration to a dynamic display duration that varies based on picture weighting values. The determination unit calculates different display durations for different pictures according to their weighting values, allowing the slide show to adapt automatically to user preferences and image significance without manual intervention.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of display duration from a fixed uniform value to variable values determined by weighting values. The determination unit processes weighting values (derived from browsing status, viewing statistics, ratings, or metadata) to generate corresponding display duration parameters, enabling the system to reflect the importance or user preference for each picture.
2Adaptability or versatility
If manual adjustment of display duration is allowed for each picture, then user preferences can be reflected, but the operation becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service by enabling the slide show system to automatically determine display durations based on weighting values without requiring manual user input. The determination unit processes weighting values (which may be automatically derived from browsing status, viewing statistics, ratings, or metadata) and generates display durations autonomously, freeing users from manual adjustment while still reflecting their preferences.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses feedback mechanisms where weighting values are derived from user interaction data such as browsing status, viewing statistics, and ratings. This feedback loop allows the system to learn user preferences and automatically adjust display durations accordingly, eliminating the need for manual reconfiguration while adapting to user tastes.
3Stability of the object's composition
If all pictures are displayed with the same display effects, then the slide show is simple and consistent, but it fails to highlight more important or preferred pictures
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by assigning different display effects to different pictures based on their weighting values. Instead of uniform treatment, the determination unit specifies different display effects for pictures with different weighting values, allowing important or preferred pictures to receive enhanced treatment while maintaining overall slide show coherence.

AI summary
A method for displaying pictures during a digital picture slide show includes receiving a plurality of pictures, determining display characteristics of the plurality of pictures according to weighting values of the plurality of pictures, and displaying the plurality of pictures according to the display characteristics of the plurality of pictures.
