Image Display Device Touch Panel Tag-Based Subject Extraction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current methods are inefficient for organizing and displaying large numbers of images, with limited solutions beyond manual folder organization and basic display formats like slide shows or thumbnails.
Innovation Solution
An image display device and method that uses a touch panel to detect user inputs, selects images based on tag information and frame data, and displays main subject areas in a predetermined order, allowing for efficient categorization and display of images through various reproduction modes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Extent of automation
If manual folder organization is used to sort images, then images can be categorized, but the process requires significant manual effort and time
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically analyzing images and assigning tag information and frame information before the user needs to view or organize them. This pre-processing includes detecting main subject areas and categorizing images based on their content, so that when users access the images, they are already organized and ready for efficient display.
Solution Approach 2:
The image display device performs self-service by automatically categorizing and organizing images without requiring manual user intervention. The system uses its own resources (processing power, algorithms) to analyze image content, extract main subjects, assign categories, and prepare display sequences autonomously, freeing the user from manual organization tasks.
2Productivity
If a large number of images are displayed using traditional slide show or thumbnail formats, then all images can be shown, but the display becomes inefficient and difficult to navigate
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the large set of images by extracting and displaying main subject areas from each image separately. Instead of showing entire images in traditional formats, the display device divides the content into meaningful segments (main subjects) and organizes them in sequences based on tag information, making navigation more efficient and user-friendly.
Solution Approach 2:
The system adds a new dimension to image display by organizing images in predetermined sequences based on tag information and main subject areas, rather than using traditional two-dimensional grid or slide show formats. This creates a structured navigation path through the images, improving both efficiency and ease of operation.
3Loss of information
If entire images are displayed, then complete information is provided, but the focus on main subjects is lost and user attention is分散
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts the main subject areas from entire images using frame information, separating the most important content from the rest of the image data. This extraction process allows the display device to show only the relevant portions (main subjects) while preserving the ability to access complete image information when needed, preventing information loss while improving focus.

AI summary
In the image display device, The touch operation detection unit detects the touch operation of the user input through the touch panel; The image selection unit selects images in the category corresponding to the tag information specified through the touch operation from among the images stored in the image storage unit based on the tag information; and the display control unit extracts main subject areas of the images in the category selected by the image selection unit based on the frame information, and displays the extracted main subject areas on the screen of the touch panel in a predetermined order according to an image display procedure corresponding to the tag information specified through the touch operation.
