Image Processing Device for Immersive Environmental Projection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current graphical display technologies lack improvements in providing immersive and efficient multi-window user interfaces and environmental projection systems for enhanced gaming and multimedia experiences.
Innovation Solution
An environmental projection system comprising an image processing device and a television/monitor, which includes input interfaces for stitching pixel data, a multiplexer for combining data, and splitting circuits for separating display data into central and peripheral outputs, allowing the television/monitor to display the central area and a projector to project the peripheral area, creating an immersive experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If pixel data from multiple input interfaces is stitched together to create a large total display area, then the display area is increased, but the processing complexity and latency increase
Solution Approach 1:
The pixel data processing is segmented into two separate pipelines: one for the central area and one for the circumferential area. This segmentation allows independent processing of each area, reducing the overall processing latency while maintaining the large total display area through multi-interface stitching.
2Measurement precision
If high spatial resolution is provided for the entire display area, then the image quality is improved, but the processing load and complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
Different spatial resolutions are applied to different regions of the display: high spatial resolution is provided for the central area where visual attention is focused, while lower spatial resolution is used for the circumferential area. This local quality approach improves perceived image quality without proportionally increasing processing complexity.
3Device complexity
If a single display device is used for the entire display area, then the system complexity is reduced, but the ability to provide immersive environmental projection is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The image processing device is designed with multi-functionality to support both traditional single-display configurations and immersive environmental projection configurations. The device can adaptively route processed video signals to either a single display device or multiple display devices including projectors, providing versatility without requiring separate dedicated systems for each mode.
