Hinge Display Image Scaling by Rotation Angle
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In modular display systems, the rotation of external display apparatuses relative to a hinge device can obstruct user visibility of content images, leading to a decreased sense of immersion due to distorted or mismatched image sizes across connected displays.
Innovation Solution
A display apparatus and method that dynamically adjust the size of content images on external displays based on the angle of rotation, using a processor to identify the angle and adjust the image size while maintaining the size of the primary image, ensuring consistent visibility and immersion.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the external display apparatus is rotated relative to the hinge device to adapt to different use environments, then the adaptability of the display system is improved, but the visibility of the content image is obstructed and the sense of immersion decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic adjustment of the content image based on the rotation angle of the external display apparatus. The processor continuously monitors the angle and dynamically modifies the image rendering parameters to compensate for the rotation, ensuring the content remains visible and immersive regardless of the display's orientation relative to the hinge device.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the display parameters (such as image size, position, or rendering characteristics) according to the rotation angle of the external display apparatus. By adjusting these parameters in response to angle changes, the system maintains optimal visibility and immersion while allowing the display to be positioned at various angles for different use environments.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If the size of the content image is adjusted to match the rotation angle, then the sense of immersion is enhanced, but the device complexity increases due to angle detection and dynamic adjustment mechanisms
Solution Approach 1:
The system employs a feedback mechanism where the processor detects the rotation angle of the external display apparatus and uses this information to adjust the content image parameters. This closed-loop approach ensures that the image remains immersive while the adjustment process is automated, minimizing the need for complex manual intervention or additional hardware components.
Solution Approach 2:
The display apparatus performs self-adjustment of the content image based on its own rotation state. The processor automatically detects the angle and modifies the image rendering without requiring external control or additional complex mechanisms, allowing the system to maintain immersion while keeping the overall device complexity manageable.
3Area of stationary object
If multiple external display apparatuses are connected through hinge devices, then the display area is expanded, but the visibility obstruction problem worsens due to increased rotation angles
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides the content image into multiple segments, with each external display apparatus displaying a portion of the overall content. The processor independently adjusts the parameters of each segment based on the rotation angle of its corresponding display, allowing the expanded display area to maintain visibility and immersion even when multiple displays are rotated at different angles.
