Solution Overview
Problem
Floor plans often have discrepancies between actual sizes and scaled representations, leading to limitations in their usability for furniture arrangement and space prediction.
Innovation Solution
A data processing method and device that adjusts the horizontal and vertical lengths of a floor plan image based on the ratio of actually-measured lengths, using guide lines and a processor to split and adjust sections accordingly.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If floor plan images are used as scaled-down representations, then they provide a compact visual overview, but the actual size proportions are not accurately maintained
Solution Approach 1:
The floor plan image is divided into multiple sections based on guide lines, allowing each section to be independently adjusted for proportional accuracy while maintaining the overall visual overview
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the dimensional parameters of the floor plan image by adjusting horizontal and vertical lengths according to actually-measured length information, transforming the scaled representation into an accurately proportional representation
2Manufacturing precision
If manual adjustment of floor plan proportions is performed, then proportional accuracy can be improved, but time consumption and operational complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically extracts actually-measured length information from the floor plan image and performs proportional adjustments without requiring manual intervention, making the system self-sufficient in correcting proportionality issues
Solution Approach 2:
The manual mechanical adjustment process is replaced with an automated image processing system that uses optical recognition and algorithmic calculation to determine and apply proportional corrections
3Measurement precision
If the floor plan image maintains strict proportionality, then measurement accuracy is improved, but the image becomes less adaptable to different display formats
Solution Approach 1:
The system makes the floor plan image dynamically adjustable by allowing proportional corrections to be applied selectively to different sections while maintaining the ability to adapt to various display formats through controlled scaling

AI summary
A data processing method may include one or more of: obtaining, from an obtained floor plan image, at least one guide line and an actually-measured length corresponding to each of the at least one guide line, splitting the floor plan image into at least one section, based on a line extending from a scale of the at least one guide line, determining, as an adjustable space, a section in which both actually-measured lengths respectively corresponding to a width and a height exist, among the at least one section, adjusting a ratio of a greatest horizontal length and a greatest vertical length of the floor plan image, according to a ratio of a greatest actually-measured length corresponding to a width of the floor plan image and a greatest actually-measured length corresponding to a height of the floor plan image, and adjusting a horizontal length and a vertical length of the adjustable space according to ratios of the greatest actually-measured lengths respectively corresponding to the width and height of the floor plan image and actually-measured lengths respectively corresponding to a width and a height of the adjustable space.
