Electronic Device Automatic Background and Composition for Product Photography
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for taking product pictures in a booth-shaped space are limited by camera movement restrictions, leading to constrained backgrounds and compositions, and require additional post-processing steps, which can be inconvenient for sellers with low IT proficiency.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device equipped with an image sensor and a processor that enables automatic background and composition determination, allowing for high-quality shooting without manual operation, and integrates a service for post-processing and product detail page generation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a fixed camera is used in a booth-shaped space, then the shooting process is simple, but the background and composition are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by enabling the camera to move along a rail system rather than being fixed. The camera can dynamically adjust its position and angle to capture various compositions and backgrounds, transforming the static shooting environment into a dynamic one that provides diverse shooting options while maintaining operational simplicity through automated control.
2Device complexity
If a fixed camera is used in a booth-shaped space, then the device structure is simple, but the shooting quality is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the camera system into multiple independent components: the camera unit, the rail system, the control unit, and the computing device. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently - the camera can be a high-quality device while the rail system provides precise positioning, and the control unit manages the complexity of coordination, thereby achieving high shooting quality without requiring an overly complex integrated structure.
3Productivity
If only picture taking is possible, then the shooting process is quick, but additional post-picture processing and product registration are required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple functions into an integrated system: the camera takes pictures, the control unit automatically processes the images, and the computing device generates product detail pages. This combination of shooting, processing, and registration functions into a single automated workflow eliminates the need for separate post-processing steps, maintaining quick shooting speed while eliminating time loss from manual processing.
4Measurement precision
If program operation is required for shooting, then the shooting control is precise, but it is inconvenient for sellers with low IT proficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements self-service by automatically determining shooting parameters, controlling camera movement and positioning, and processing images without requiring user programming. The control unit and computing device work autonomously to execute the shooting workflow, providing precise control while eliminating the need for sellers with low IT proficiency to write or understand complex programs.
