Event-Adaptive Display Control for Image Reproduction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional recording/reproduction systems require users to manually determine image reproduction methods based on event types, making it time-consuming to find desired images, especially in cases like abandonment detection where tracing back in time is necessary.
Innovation Solution
A display control apparatus that determines the display order and speed for images based on event types, allowing users to select whether images are displayed in chronological or reverse chronological order and at specific speeds, thereby streamlining the image reproduction process.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If images are displayed in chronological order from event occurrence, then the reproduction process is simple, but the desired image may not be found when tracing back in time is needed (e.g., abandonment detection)
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the display order adaptable and changeable based on event type. The system automatically switches between chronological and reverse chronological display modes depending on the detected event category, allowing the reproduction process to dynamically adjust to different search needs without manual intervention.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the display parameter (display order direction) based on event type. By detecting the event category and automatically adjusting the display sequence parameter, the system optimizes image retrieval efficiency for different scenarios without requiring users to manually configure display settings.
2Productivity
If users manually determine image reproduction method based on event type, then the display can be tailored to event specifics, but the operation becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs self-service by automatically determining the appropriate display order based on the detected event type. The event detection unit identifies the event category and the display control unit automatically configures the display sequence, eliminating the need for users to manually determine reproduction methods and reducing operational complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses feedback from the event detection unit to automatically adjust display parameters. The detection of event type provides feedback that triggers automatic configuration of the display order, creating a closed-loop system that adapts to different event scenarios without user intervention.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple event types are supported with different display methods, then the system is more versatile, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent achieves universality by creating a unified control system that handles multiple event types through a single automated decision-making process. The event detection unit and display control unit work together as a universal mechanism that adapts to different event categories without requiring separate control systems for each event type.

AI summary
Whether images are to be displayed in a display order or at a display speed is determined for each type of event for when images that are recorded in a recording unit in association with events detected by a detection unit, which are to be displayed by a display unit. The display order indicates whether the images are to be displayed in chronological order or in reverse chronological order. The display speed indicates a display speed at which the images are to be reproduced by the display unit.
