Display Apparatus Exercise Space Detection for Safer Home Training
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing home training services do not consider the surrounding environment, leading to potential injuries due to space limitations and inability to follow exercise motions when objects are present.
Innovation Solution
A display apparatus equipped with a camera and processor that analyzes the surrounding space to determine exercisable motions and provides exercise content or guide information to secure additional space when necessary.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If home training services provide exercise guidance based only on user tendencies or body types, then the service can be simple and easy to implement, but the user may be unable to follow exercise motions due to space limitations and may get injured by bumping into nearby objects
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary detection of the exercise environment using a camera before providing exercise guidance. The processor analyzes the captured image to identify free space and potential obstacles, then determines appropriate exercise motions based on the detected environment. This preliminary action ensures user safety by preventing injuries from bumping into objects while maintaining service simplicity through automated environmental assessment.
2Ease of operation
If the system provides exercise content without analyzing the surrounding environment, then the service is simple to operate, but the user cannot perform exercise motions safely when space is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs self-service by automatically detecting the exercise environment, analyzing free space, and determining suitable exercise motions without requiring user input about the surrounding conditions. The camera captures the environment, the processor analyzes the image to identify obstacles and available space, and the system automatically selects appropriate exercises. This maintains ease of operation while ensuring exercise safety through automated environmental assessment.
3Reliability
If the system analyzes the surrounding space using camera and image processing, then exercise safety is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display apparatus utilizes its existing camera and processor for multiple functions: capturing exercise content, analyzing the surrounding environment, detecting free space, and determining appropriate exercise motions. By making the camera and processor multi-functional, the system improves exercise safety without requiring entirely separate dedicated safety detection devices, thus limiting the increase in device complexity.

AI summary
A display apparatus may include: a camera; a display; a memory storing one or more instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the one or more instructions stored in the memory to: analyze an image captured by the camera and detect a free space included in the image; determine an exercise motion performable in the free space, based on the detected free space; and control the display to output exercise content based on the determined exercise motion.
