Head Mounted Display Gaze-Based Terminal Selection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing head-mounted display systems lack efficient methods for users to seamlessly navigate and set up multiple image forming apparatuses within their field of view, leading to user frustration and decreased usability.
Innovation Solution
A head-mounted display system that performs wireless communication with multiple terminals, detects the user's line-of-sight direction, and displays a setting screen or operation panel of a specified terminal, allowing users to easily select and configure image forming apparatuses by tracking finger motion and updating settings based on gaze direction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple terminals are supported for setting, then versatility is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The head-mounted display serves as an intermediary device between multiple terminals and the user. It receives setting screen information from multiple different terminals and displays them sequentially based on line-of-sight detection, mediating the interaction without requiring direct complex connections between all terminals
Solution Approach 2:
The system displays setting screens from multiple terminals in a periodic sequence determined by the user's line-of-sight direction. Each terminal's setting screen is presented in turn as the user gazes at the corresponding terminal, enabling multi-terminal access through temporal multiplexing
2Ease of operation
If line-of-sight detection is used for terminal selection, then ease of operation is improved, but measurement precision requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates feedback by detecting the user's line-of-sight direction and automatically switching between setting screens of multiple terminals based on where the user is looking. This feedback loop enables intuitive terminal selection without requiring precise manual input
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs self-service by automatically determining which terminal setting screen to display based on the user's natural gaze direction. The line-of-sight detection mechanism enables the system to autonomously select and switch between terminals without requiring explicit user commands
Data Source
AI summary
A display system includes a plurality of terminals and a head mounted display. The head mounted display performs wireless communication with the plurality of terminals. The head mounted display includes a main controller and a display controller. The main controller detects a line-of-sight direction of a user. The main controller specifies a single terminal out of the plurality of terminals based on the detected line-of-sight direction of the user. The display controller causes at least one setting screen of the terminal specified by the main controller to be displayed such as to be viewable to the use.
