Fisheye Image Display via Adjacent View Cells
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current fisheye image display methods clutter the screen by packing original and regional images together, making it difficult for users to view details clearly and causing visual fatigue due to discontinuous visual effects.
Innovation Solution
A fisheye image display method that arranges regional images in at least two adjacent view cells, either horizontally or vertically, allowing for magnification and continuous viewing without the original image, thereby improving clarity and reducing visual fatigue.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If all images (original image and regional images) are displayed in one single view cell, then the space utilization is maximized, but the image details become unclear and the screen appears cluttered
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is divided into multiple view cells, and regional images are distributed across at least two adjacent view cells. This segmentation allows each regional image to occupy sufficient display space for clear detail viewing while maintaining efficient screen utilization through systematic arrangement.
2Loss of information
If the original image is displayed together with regional images, then the complete overview is provided, but the screen becomes disorderly and the regional images are given less importance
Solution Approach 1:
The original image is extracted from the view cells and displayed separately, allowing regional images to be prominently displayed in the view cells without clutter. The original image remains accessible but does not interfere with the focused viewing of regional images, maintaining both completeness and orderliness.
3Quantity of substance
If regional images are arranged circularly around the original image, then all regional images are displayed, but the user experiences visual fatigue due to discontinuous visual effect
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of arranging regional images circularly around the original image in a two-dimensional clustered layout, the invention distributes regional images across multiple adjacent view cells in a linear/sequential arrangement. This dimensional reorganization creates continuous visual flow in horizontal or vertical directions, reducing visual fatigue while displaying all regional images.
