Electronic Apparatus Light Adjustment for Consistent Visual Recognition
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The visual recognition state of light emitted from within an electronic apparatus can change unexpectedly due to variations in the exterior body's state, impairing the intended visual appearance.
Innovation Solution
An electronic apparatus with a light-emitting unit that adjusts its light emission aspect based on acquired exterior body information, including color, transmitted light, and ambient light, to maintain a consistent visual recognition state.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Illumination intensity
If a light-emitting unit is provided inside an exterior body, then the visual appearance can be enhanced, but the visual recognition state may change unexpectedly due to exterior body variations
Solution Approach 1:
The processor acquires exterior body information and uses this feedback to dynamically adjust the light emission aspect. This closed-loop control ensures that variations in the exterior body state are compensated for, maintaining consistent visual recognition of the light emission.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the light emission parameters (intensity, color, duration) based on the acquired exterior body information. By adjusting these parameters dynamically, the system compensates for exterior body variations and maintains the intended visual appearance.
2Reliability
If the light emission aspect is adjusted based on exterior body information, then visual recognition consistency is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The processor performs multiple functions: it acquires exterior body information, determines the appropriate light emission aspect, and controls the light-emitting unit. By consolidating these functions in a single processing unit, the system achieves the desired visual consistency without proportionally increasing overall device complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses the exterior body information that is already available or easily acquireable to automatically adjust the light emission. The system serves itself by using its own environmental data to optimize its performance, reducing the need for additional complex external control mechanisms.

AI summary
An electronic apparatus includes: an exterior body; a light-emitting unit that is provided inside the exterior body and that is configured to emit light to an outside through the exterior body; and a processor, in which the processor acquires exterior body information that is information on a state of the exterior body, and execute control of adjusting a light emission aspect of the light-emitting unit based on the acquired exterior body information.
